Key Features
- 20″ Black Heavy Barrel – WHY IT MATTERS: The heavier profile soaks up heat and vibration, keeping groups tight round after round, especially when you’re shooting from a bench or bipod.
- Black Chrome Receiver with Picatinny Rail – WHY IT MATTERS: The durable black chrome finish resists rust and wear, and the integrated Picatinny rail lets you mount optics or a red dot without extra adapters.
- Turkish Walnut Fixed Stock – WHY IT MATTERS: Hand-selected Turkish walnut gives you a classic, stable platform with natural recoil absorption and a cheek weld that feels like it was made for you.
- 10+1 Round Capacity – WHY IT MATTERS: A detachable box magazine means you can load up and keep shooting without constant single-round fumbling — perfect for plinking or pest control.
- Adjustable Trigger – WHY IT MATTERS: Per Retay USA specs, the trigger is user-adjustable from 2.5 to 4.5 pounds, letting you dial in a crisp break for precision shooting.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the shooter who appreciates wood and steel over polymer. It’s a great choice for new gun owners looking for a first .22 that will last, for families wanting a reliable training rifle, and for hunters who need a lightweight small-game gun that carries well in the field. The heavy barrel also appeals to target shooters who want to improve their marksmanship without breaking the bank.
Pros and Cons
- Pro: The Turkish walnut stock is genuinely beautiful and provides a solid, warm feel that synthetic stocks can’t match.
- Pro: The heavy barrel helps with accuracy — expect 1-inch groups at 50 yards with good ammo.
- Pro: The Picatinny rail is a nice touch for optics mounting right out of the box.
- Con: The fixed stock means you can’t adjust length of pull or cheek height, so taller or shorter shooters may need a custom fit.

FAQ
Is this rifle accurate out of the box?
Yes, the heavy barrel and adjustable trigger help it shoot sub-1-inch groups at 50 yards with quality ammunition. Per Retay USA, the barrel is button-rifled for consistency.
Does it come with scope rings or bases?
The receiver has a Picatinny rail already installed, so you can mount standard rings or a one-piece mount. Rings are not included.
Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?
No, the Turkish walnut fixed stock is one-piece and non-adjustable. It fits most average-sized shooters, but you may need a pad or custom work for a perfect fit.
What kind of ammunition does it prefer?
It cycles standard-velocity and high-velocity .22 LR reliably. For best accuracy, try match-grade ammo like CCI Standard Velocity or SK Standard Plus.
Is this a good rifle for a left-handed shooter?
The bolt is on the right side, so it’s not ideal for lefties. A left-handed shooter would need to work the bolt with their right hand or look for a left-handed model.
