Our Law Shield NFA members who own 22-caliber suppressors should be aware that Sturm, Ruger & Co.’s American Rimfire line of bolt-action rifles are now available with threaded barrels in 22 LR, 22 Magnum, and 17 HMR.
Two stock lengths are available: full-sized (13.75″ length of pull) and compact (12.5″ length of pull). All six models feature 18-inch cold hammered-forged barrels with a 1/2-28 thread pattern and a factory-installed thread protector.
All list for $359. The specific model numbers are as follows:
- Full Size No. 8312 17 HMR
- Full Size No. 8305 22 LR
- Full Size No. 8322 22 WMR
- Compact No. 8314 17 HMR

Mike Fifer, Ruger CEO, said, “These new threaded models are just one more way we’re raising the bar on rimfire bolt-action rifles.”
Additional features include a Williams fiber-optic front sight and 10/22-style adjustable “V” slot folding-leaf rear sight. A 3/8-inch rimfire scope base is machined into the receiver, which is also drilled and tapped for Weaver #12 bases (not included).
