american rimfire

Ruger American Rimfire is a rimfire bolt action rifle manufactured by Sturm, Ruger & Co. in the United States. The firearm has some visual similarities with the larger centerfire Ruger American Rifle, and both are marketed as budget hunting rifles.
The stock of the Ruger American Rimfire has a V-shaped pillar bedding built according to the same "Power Bedding" principle as the larger Ruger American Rifle, but with different dimensions and with only one pillar which is placed on front of the magazine. It has the Ruger Marksman trigger and a tang safety. The bolt has a 70 degree bolt lift similar to its larger counterpart, but consists of only 8 parts (including the dowel pin and striker spring) for easier disassembly, and has a stainless steel single-extractor with a unique design. The barrel is press fitted into the receiver without threads in a similar fashion as the Anschütz Fortner. The magazine used on the American Rimfire is of the same BX series rotary magazines as the Ruger 10/22.
