Rossi Gallery 22LR Pump-Action Rimfire Rifle

The Rossi Gallery 22LR pump-action rimfire rifle is a faithful modern reproduction of a classic American plinker, engineered for shooters who value manual cycling, low recoil, and a high-capacity tubular magazine. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, this pump-action rifle combines nostalgic lines with contemporary manufacturing tolerances, offering a reliable shooting platform for small game, target practice, and recreational range sessions. The Rossi Gallery 22LR pump-action rimfire rifle features a 16.5-inch barrel, a blued finish, and a hardwood stock, delivering a traditional aesthetic without sacrificing function.

Overview

Rossi’s pump-action rimfire design is a direct descendant of the gallery guns that defined American shooting sports in the early 20th century. The Rossi Gallery 22LR pump-action rimfire rifle utilizes a smooth, short-stroke pump action that cycles spent rounds and chambers fresh cartridges with a brisk forward-and-back motion. The tubular magazine holds 14 rounds of .22 LR, allowing for extended strings of fire without frequent reloading. This rifle is chambered specifically for .22 Long Rifle ammunition and is not compatible with .22 Short or .22 Long. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, though the included open sights are fully adjustable for windage and elevation.

Features & Specs

• Action: Pump-action with cross-bolt safety; manual cocking mechanism requires the shooter to cycle the action fully before the hammer is cocked, providing an additional layer of handling safety.
• Barrel: 16.5-inch carbon steel barrel, button-rifled with a 1:16 twist rate, optimized for standard-velocity and high-velocity .22 LR ammunition. Muzzle velocity with 40-grain round-nose loads typically ranges from 1,200 to 1,280 feet per second.
• Magazine: Under-barrel tubular magazine with a capacity of 14 rounds. Loading is performed through a spring-loaded gate on the right side of the receiver; no detachable box magazine is used.
• Stock: American hardwood stock with a satin lacquer finish; length of pull is 13.75 inches, drop at comb is 1.5 inches, and drop at heel is 2.5 inches. The forend is checkered for positive grip during rapid cycling.
• Sights: Bead front sight with a brass bead post; open rear sight adjustable for windage and elevation via a stepped elevator. Receiver is drilled and tapped for Weaver-style bases.
• Weight: 5.2 pounds unloaded; overall length is 36.5 inches.

Who It’s For

The Rossi Gallery 22LR pump-action rimfire rifle is designed for shooters who appreciate manual-action firearms and prefer a nostalgic shooting experience over semi-automatic operation. It is well-suited for new shooters learning proper cycling technique, as the pump action requires deliberate manipulation to feed and eject rounds. Experienced rimfire enthusiasts will appreciate the 14-round capacity and the ability to shoot steel targets, tin cans, or small game at distances up to 75 yards. Because the rifle is lightweight and has a moderate length of pull, it can accommodate shooters of smaller stature or those who prefer a compact, easy-handling field gun. This rifle is not recommended for high-volume tactical drills or competition disciplines that demand rapid follow-up shots, as the pump action is inherently slower than a semi-automatic system.
