Is this $100 gun any good?
It feeds differently from a Ruger..the round doesn’t seem to chamber at as severe an angle, and it looks to have a little feed ramp also. I love mine. Thinking about putting Tech Sights iron sights on it.
This video sealed the deal for me to get mine
Truthfully, it’s probably the best gun I’ve ever had in my hands
Just got one of these same one for my son.
Started with BB gun then 5.56
Rossi RS22 is exactly same as Mossberg 702 plinkster. I bought mine for $109 last month. I put a $30 walmart BARSKA scope on it. It is so light and tossable, delightful to shoot, and I won’t cry over it in case it breaks…. But it never does! Fires anything and everything. Very accurate to 50+ yards, which is all I really need for varmint hunting and plinking.
Country boy I couldn’t agree more! It’s a dang good rifle, I got the mossberg 702 plinkster, it’s the exact same gun as the Rossi rs22 but has a different stock. Shoots very reliably even with the cheap bulk ammo. Thank for this video! I’m subscriber# 982😀
I like it just as much as my 10/22
Thank you , Looks like i just found my next .22lr 🙂
Got this rifle on the way. It’s all I could afford right now. I would like something for home defense.
Funny I started on am M16 in the military with real firearms, BB gun as a kid. Big difference but all the same basics.
i just tested mine and it shoots straight out of the box
Great video 👍 very informative
Just got mine, a few days ago. Put 75+ rounds through her, an hit dead nut’s 98% of my shots. Not to bad for right out the box.. I needed a new 22, and things are getting harder to find these days. I am on Disability, so I didn’t have Big $$$$, and this is what my local Gun Shop let me try out on their range. . Lordi boys, I was sold after one clip. So I myself, give this rifle 2 thumbs up and a chicken dinner! ! ! Ya’ll stay focused out there. ..Blessings to you all. .
Thinking about getting a 12 gauge for my first ever gun. I’ve shot one before and it’s definitely a kick, low brass shells. But the reason I say that might be my choice is that with a shotgun you can kill turkey, deer, squirrel, rabbit, I believe hog as well ( small and big game). If I do it’s gonna be a 12 gauge, maybe a Mossberg 500… I don’t know though, what do y’all think?
I got this as my first gun. I threw a scope on mine, but I had to remove the back sight. I have 400 rounds through it, and only ever had 2 misfeeds. For $100 flat its an incredible gun. 10/10 reccomend.
25yds and the wifey tears the paper up.. her eyesight isnt the best so looking into a small scope for her…. That said, she shot a tighter group of 3 than i did at 400yds with my cheapo 7mm remington 770. lol. Wasnt by much but she got me. She wants it she gets it, suggestions for a decent one that wont kill the bank and make her happy?
Thanks for the video. I have the Rio Bravo and the RS 22 Magnum . I like them both.
Bought one last night for $129 will take it out soon to try it out will keep you informed on it
I just discovered the 702 plinkster folding stock (pm279) is a direct swap that fits with no mods. I just made a video of doing the swap in about 7 mins. Thought I’d pass that on because gun prices are high and people are looking for folding 22 rifles SHTF rifles that fit in a backpack. For well under $200 I think I found a cheap option!
I picked on up and took it to the range and had nothing but problems with it. Can’ t get to shoot more than a few rounds with out it failing to fire. Really sorry i got this rifle. Maybe just a lemon but I can’t recommend this rifle based on my experiences.
you convinced me will be picking one up tomorrow with a green dot laser scope
cant remember exactly but an Indian girl back in the days kill a brown bear with a single shot 22 rifle.
Good vid!! and review!!!after these comments about this gun I’m fins to go see if I can find it RIGHT NOW!!! Love your vids man
Subbed brother
22lr is always underestimated for home defense. It’s deadly.
I bought mine new and the front sight was broke 😂 looks like a little peep sight
That’s exactly why I bought it for home defense and everything you said.
Brother any 22lr naysayers I have to say
Leather,jean,rib,melon test….
i live out in the country of nc and i love this rifle, fired all sorts of rifle calibers but my heart is always with my little 22 rossi, and i use aguila intercepters and are also good self defense rounds, i use it for home defense because my 45 will over penetrate and you don’t wana hurt a loved one, but 22 mags and lr will stay in the target and still do plenty of terminal damage. Also i beleive you can convert this little rifle into a bullpup and you can use 25 round mossberg 702 plinkster magazines with it
CB, my RS22 is arriving today. What would you recommend for best home defense ammo? CCI hollow points? Stingers? Velocitor?
It’s the same gun as Mossberg 702/CBC 7022 made by CBC/Taurus/Rossi here in Brazil, yet it costs a month’s wage (plus bureaucracy) while in US it’s so cheap its expendable.
Damn I envy you guys so much, lol.
Just bought mine off PSA and just subbed to your channel. Great review!
I left my Marlin model 60 at my moms house for her protection loaded up with CCI Mini Mag hollow points. 22 is no joke at home defense/across the living room distances especially out of a rifle. Consider the fact that it has zero recoil and will fire rounds very rapidly it is a highly lethal package. I might get that little Rossi 22 for my moms downstairs. That way she has a 22 rifle in her room upstairs and a 22 rifle under the couch down stairs. They have their place for elderly people and women. Easy to shoot, not overpoweringly loud, shoot quickly, and deadly at inside the house ranges.
I have one and I love it
Ordered one from Palmetto yesterday, $106 plus tax & shipping $130. Checked back today and they’re sold out. Lots of good reviews!!
At about 6:38 the camera lens looks like he’s in a 1990s rap video
Hey man where did you get the gun
Not sure how old you are but you look pretty young think all your model 60 is a good cleaning I could be wrong I haven’t checked it out I bought mine in the early 90s it started messing up all you needed is a good cleaning
Bought mine for 120.00 at Dunhams,,,fun little rifle.
Sometimes I find that fiber optic sights are not precise enough for target shooting, since the red and green dots are very large and block the bullseye. I’d love to hear folks’ opinions on these particular sight setup. Thanks.
Thanks got me one just a fun as can be sweet little rifle shoot a couple times weekly when l can
This is about to be my first gun lol. Just ordered from psa cant wait.
How would you compare this to the ruger 10/22. Im looking for a good budget 22 that is reliable and i can customize a little
Can this be used as an AR15 with 22lr?
CCI Stingers are best
Did you have any problems with that scope on the rs22? I own this same rifle and was going to buy that exact same scope but was afraid it might crack after a few shots.
I’d think a head shot would be the most human way to hunt an animal. Instant death 🤷🏻♂️
Nice scope I’d like one of those for my new Rossi RS22. Which one is it?
Maybe recommend the CCI Velocitors OR Stingers for home defense. I just got one at Palmetto State Armory for $125. Going on gunbroker for $135 PSA was the best current price I could find. With shipping, tax and ffl $170. Would loved to have gotten one for $100 + tax. But after all the positive reviews it’s an ok deal.
I love mine. Great .22 for the price.
