I love the look of these and couldn’t wait to get my hands on one in .22 lr. Cabela’s Regina finally had one in, this was back in Dec 2018. I was able to get there and hold it, But it disappointed me! Very light and seemed flimsy! Admittedly it had probly been handled by many, and the adjustable stock bolt was loose. I was able to tighten it and was better. Now onto the bolt. I Cycled the action and it felt gritty, more like chunky. I moved it at different speeds but didn’t cycle smoothly. Now in All fairness, all my .22’s, that I own, have wooden stocks so handling this one kinda threw me, but at 6.7 lbs I thought it would feel heavier than it was. I understand that being new, the action would be tight and sticky and that with time would get smoother. But At $630.00 I was hoping for a greater first time experience. I’d Like to get back there and hold it again. Or hope to shoot one and hope my expectations of this rimfire can be satisfied to be standards that it should be from Ruger.
