> Just shoots and it works good i've seen videos of people doing long-term durability tests and they say this will make about 350 rounds before it gunks up and can't shoot anymore.

## What Customers Say

*AI-generated insights from customer reviews*

The Rossi RS22 gets decent marks as an entry-level .22LR rifle. Affordability is the most consistent positive. Buyers feel they're getting reasonable performance for the price. The light weight also gets mentioned frequently, making it accessible for newer or younger shooters. Accuracy at typical .22LR distances holds up well for both range work and small game.

The common criticisms involve reliability: occasional feeding issues and jams come up in owner reviews with some regularity. The matte black finish can wear with regular handling over time. Some buyers also feel the construction quality of certain components could be more solid.

Most owners recommend it for beginners or casual plinking, with the caveat to set expectations accordingly for a rifle in this price range.
