- Just my take on the ultra affordable Rossi RS22. The Rossi RS22 is a magazine fed semi auto carbine chambered in 22lr with some features priced well above its price point. In this video, I lay out my opinions on the rifle after the first 400 rounds. I also compare it side by side with the Marlin 795, of which this rifle is based.
I just bought my Rossi and am in the process of making a video on it. I have watched all of the Rossi reviews I could find and yours was one of the best. You were the only person to mention the comparison to the marlin and also the way the trigger is a tiny bit spongey. I hope you do more videos as this was one was excellent. I bought mine for $148 and it has a threaded barrel.
Thank you for this great Video ... I had just bought one and you Helped me a lot . Keep the Great Videos Coming
fantastic and detailed review, would like to see more!
I appreciate the time you took in research & review - thank you👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Here because the lady just bought me one for my birthday. Waiting patiently for it to reach my FFL. Thanks for the vid man. Subscribed.
Did you get it yet?
@@jashpaper8370 Yes sir! I got it but haven't shot it yet. Been a bit busy with work and also having to move. I'm wondering if I should put a scope on it.
SWEET ! It`s now on my want list :) Thank you for the nice video pard !
Great video I Purchased one of these Rossi recently and I Highly recommend it also....
I've got 5 of these 25 rd magazines and have loaded each one to full capacity with little issue. Read the instructions and develop the technique. It's simple. Mag in the left hand with the loader on the top, push loader down with your left index finger, load a bullet, up, load a bullet, up, now 2 or 3 bumps of the base of the mag on the heel of your right hand while pushing with left index finger, bang, settle them buggers in, repeat. 2 bullets, bang and settle, 2 bullets bang and settle,... Works consistently for me on 5 different magazines, your results may vary. Great value for the money.
Really awesome video. Great information. You seem very knowledgeable
25 rounders capped with mini mags or stingers sounds like a pretty good defensive rifle.
Good video, subbed
Thank you for this video. It was very helpful to me. I'm looking for a high value plinker.
Nice video. Interesting to hear opinions, especially since you also have the Marlin 795.
Note: Marlin 795 and 60 don't come with a "buckhorn" rear sight. That sight is a traditional open sight, with a front blade, or post.
Also, I like the bolt release on the Marlin but the mag release on the Rossi is much better.
Peace.
Just bought one, waiting for it now... Hey what's the name of that Magazine you have for the Rossi 22
Its the 25 round magazine. The packaging says Flex 22
Great review. Where did you find the 25 round mag?
I purchased the 25 round magazines from Cheaper than Dirt. They are originally for the Mossberg 702 plinkster. They sell out quick so select the option to be notified when they are back in stock and act fast when they are. Thanks for watching! 👍
@@Bob-xe4rh Yes I’ve noticed how quickly they appear and then disappear.
Strange how things reversed over the years I have had a few 702 s were 99 bucks at Walmart can’t even find them now and the Rossi were 150 at the time now got a Rossi for 129 found a 702 on line now ate 169 love the 22 s i plan to keep this one to go with my rough rider when I’m out rabbit hunting
Where can i find the 25 rnd magazine for the Rossi?

Have you noticed any marks on your feed ramp? Mines had it whenever I bought it?
My feed ramp is very smooth. My experience with 22 pistols/rifles is that if the feed ramp has any machine marks deep enough to feel with your fingernail it may cause a FTF. What I've done in the past is take 1000 grit sand paper to smooth it out without removing too much material. Thanks for watching and thanks for your question!
@@Bob-xe4rh I will do that thanks I wish there was a way to se d you a picture of it.
@@Bob-xe4rh if I post a video of it on here will you take a look at it for me?
@@Bob-xe4rh I shot Mabye 50 rounds through it no problem noticed it whenever I got it home to clean it.
@@Bob-xe4rh I got it up now please if you have time check it out for me wanted to get your thoughts.
What kind of warranty if any, thanks for the review
So I had to go in my manual for this information, but Rossi says that they have a limited warranty for 1 year that does not cover modifications, visual damages, or normal wear and tear. So it basically covers function and parts breakages for one year
@@Bob-xe4rh 👍 huge thanks bud for putting in the work. Wanted to get a ruger 10/22 then I came across this Rossi. I know the ruger has huge aftermarket and good customer service but the price on this Rossi is ideal. Lol thanks again.
@@paulcondie2520 well keep an eye out with my channel! I did a "tacticool" build with the Rossi RS22 and I think it could it steer you in a direction if that's what you're into. The update video should also have some good rimfire scope installation alternatives. If not your thing, I'm sure that you can find hardwood stocks for the Rossi as well.
@@Bob-xe4rh I am going with the Rossi. Made my decision after last comment. Lol There's a huge gun show near me this sat n Sunday hopefully I can find a new one there if not theres a local gun shop that sells them. Thanks again also I subbed
This the same as citadel trakr 22lr
Love my citadel takr have also had a mossberg 702 in past same gun to
Love my Citadel.
Shooting from a rest, most of these budget rifles, are capable of accuracy, that will exceed the average persons ability to shoot it.
Of course a “seasoned bench rest shooter” will find the limits of these remarkable rifles.
But since I am an “unseasoned bench rest shooter, plinker, gopher exterminator guy” I am well pleased.
