The Grade I BL-22 is known for its slick 33° lever throw, and this example operates with minimal effort, allowing rapid follow-up shots without breaking sight alignment. The action feeds .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 LR cartridges interchangeably from its 15-round tubular magazine, giving you versatile, low-cost range time.
A satin-nickel receiver contrasts handsomely with the polished blued barrel while adding corrosion resistance. The receiver top is smooth and undrilled, preserving the rifle’s clean profile and traditional iron-sight focus.
The straight-grip walnut stock features a smooth, satin finish that complements the metalwork. At 13.25", the length of pull suits most shooters and maintains the nimble handling that makes the BL-22 popular for plinking and small-game hunts.
Sights consist of a ramped post up front and a folding, elevation-adjustable rear, offering a crisp sight picture right out of the box. An exposed hammer provides positive control and visual confirmation of the rifle’s ready status.
