Christensen Arms 8011201600 Ranger Full Size 22 WMR 9+1 18" Black Carbon Fiber Steel Barrel, Black Anodized Aluminum Receiver, Sitka Elevate II Camo Carbon Fiber Aluminum Bedding Stock

The Christensen Arms 8011201600 Ranger Full Size 22 WMR is a precision bolt-action rimfire rifle engineered for shooters who demand accuracy, durability, and minimal weight in a dedicated small-caliber platform. Built on a rigid aluminum receiver with a steel recoil lug insert, the Ranger 22 addresses a specific tactical and sporting niche: precision varmint control, training, and suppressed applications where the 22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire cartridge excels. This rifle brings Christensen Arms' reputation for carbon fiber innovation and manufacturing precision to the rimfire segment, offering law enforcement trainers, competitive shooters, and precision hunters a legitimate alternative to centerfire platforms when reduced report, cost per round, and minimal recoil are operational priorities.

The 18-inch carbon fiber steel barrel delivers consistent velocity and accuracy inherent to Christensen Arms' proprietary barrel technology, which reduces harmonic vibration and thermal shift—critical factors in precision shooting. The black anodized aluminum receiver provides corrosion resistance and a durable hard-coat finish proven across military and law enforcement applications. Weighing only 6.5 pounds, the Ranger 22 features a carbon fiber aluminum bedding stock finished in Sitka Elevate II camouflage, minimizing weight while maximizing rigidity and field durability. The 9+1 magazine capacity (nine rounds in magazine plus one chambered) supports rapid follow-up shots without sacrificing ergonomic handling. The combination of lightweight construction, rigid bedding, and premium materials produces a sub-seven-pound rifle capable of sub-MOA performance when properly supported—a significant advantage in precision applications where fatigue and recoil management impact accuracy over extended shooting sessions.

This platform serves precision rifle competitors, law enforcement training cadres, and professional varmint hunters seeking a suppression-ready platform with genuine mechanical accuracy without the logistical complexity of centerfire rimfire conversions. The 22 WMR cartridge's subsonic-capable velocity makes the Ranger 22 ideal for suppressed use—a configuration favored in training environments where noise reduction extends range time without hearing protection fatigue. The Sitka Elevate II finish provides field-proven camouflage in varied terrain, while the lightweight architecture enables all-day field deployment without shoulder fatigue. Installation requires standard rifle fundamentals; no special tools or gunsmithing are necessary for operation or field maintenance, making it compatible with existing bolt-action rifle training protocols and maintenance procedures used across tactical and sporting communities.
