Tactical Solutions Owyhee SBX .22 WMR Takedown Rifle
About this product
If you're looking for a tactical solutions owyhee sbx .22 wmr takedown rifle that's built from the ground up for suppressor use and easy packing, you've found it. This bolt-action takedown rifle chambers the .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (WMR) and comes from Tactical Solutions, a brand known for precision rimfire gear. The whole idea here is compactness: the barrel shroud is threaded 1/2x28 and sits inside a larger profile, so you can screw on a suppressor without making the gun unwieldy. Pair that with a foldable Magpul Backpacker stock and a 10-round rotary magazine, and you've got a field-ready platform that's accurate, portable, and quiet.

Key Features
- Integrated suppressor-ready barrel shroud: The SBX design tucks the threaded barrel inside a larger shroud, so you can attach a suppressor and still keep the overall length short. Why it matters: this means you get hearing-safe shooting without a long, awkward gun.
- Magpul Backpacker stock with foldable design: This stock folds to reduce carry length and includes storage compartments in the grip and buttstock. Why it matters: you can stash extra rounds or a cleaning kit right in the stock, making it a true pack-and-go rifle.
- 10-round rotary magazine: The detachable rotary mag feeds .22 WMR reliably and sits flush with the stock. Why it matters: no snagging on brush, and you get fast reloads without fumbling with single rounds.
- Picatinny-style scope rail: The receiver has a built-in rail for mounting optics. Why it matters: you can zero a red dot or scope for precise shots at small game or varmints.
- Takedown design with repeatable zero: The barrel and receiver separate for storage or cleaning, then lock back together without losing zero. Why it matters: you can pack it in a backpack and reassemble in seconds, confident your point of aim stays true.
Who It's For

FAQ
Is the Tactical Solutions Owyhee SBX compatible with all .22 WMR ammunition?
Yes, it's designed for standard .22 WMR cartridges. Per manufacturer specs, it cycles reliably with most major brands like CCI, Winchester, and Hornady. Stick to high-velocity loads for best accuracy.
What suppressors work with this rifle?
Any suppressor with a 1/2x28 thread pitch will attach directly to the barrel shroud. The shroud fits inside a 1.5-inch diameter tube, so most rimfire cans like the SilencerCo Sparrow or Dead Air Mask will clear the shroud. Check your suppressor's outer diameter to be safe.
How accurate is this rifle at 50 yards?
With quality .22 WMR ammunition, expect 1- to 1.5-inch groups at 50 yards from a rest. The takedown design holds zero well if you reassemble it correctly. For a compact takedown gun, that's solid performance.
Can I use this rifle for small game hunting?
Absolutely. The .22 WMR is a proven round for rabbits, squirrels, and even coyotes at closer ranges. The compact size makes it easy to carry through brush, and the suppressor keeps noise down for ethical shots.
How does the takedown mechanism work?
You twist a locking collar on the receiver, separate the barrel from the action, and fold the stock. Reassembly is the reverse. Per Tactical Solutions, the system is designed for repeatable zero, so you don't have to re-zero your optic every time.
