Winchester .243 Win 22" 5-Round Walnut Stock Rifle

The Mossberg Winchester .243 Win 22" 5-Round Walnut Stock Rifle is a versatile, bolt-action centerfire rifle engineered for precision shooting across hunting, sport, and marksmanship applications. Built on proven Mossberg platform reliability, this rifle delivers the accuracy and dependability that professional shooters and experienced hunters demand. The .243 Winchester cartridge offers low recoil, minimal report, and excellent ballistic performance at moderate ranges, making it ideal for varmint control, whitetail hunting, and target competition where flat trajectories matter.

This rifle features a 22-inch barrel optimized for the .243 Winchester round, balancing velocity and handling weight in a package that weighs 8.56 pounds—light enough for field work without sacrificing inherent accuracy. The classic walnut furniture stock provides both aesthetics and functional grip ergonomics, while the 5-round magazine capacity meets practical hunting and sport-shooting standards. The bolt-action mechanism delivers reliable feeding, extraction, and case ejection with the smooth cycling expected from Mossberg's quality manufacturing, enabling shooters to maintain target focus between rounds and execute precise follow-up shots when needed.

This rifle suits hunters pursuing medium-sized game at typical field distances, competitive shooters in precision rifle matches, and recreational marksmen developing marksmanship fundamentals. The 22-inch barrel length and moderate overall length of 50.5 inches provide excellent maneuverability in vehicle transport and brush hunting scenarios. The open receiver profile is compatible with standard Picatinny scope bases and modern optics mounting systems, allowing integration of quality glass or red-dot systems to extend effective range and target acquisition speed in low-light conditions typical of dawn and dusk hunting windows.
