Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
(According to the consigner this rifle is new old stock and consumer unfired)
Well over a century after John Browning introduced the design, it is still being produced, and a new variation called SA-22 Challenge is the star of this report. Unlike other SA-22 variations available today, the Challenge is not a takedown design. The intent was to deliver the best accuracy possible, and in order to accomplish that, a more rigid fit between receiver and barrel was deemed necessary.
The barrel is threaded tightly into the receiver, and while it can be removed, the job is best left to a gunsmith. And speaking of increased rigidity, the barrel measures a chunky 0.940 inch at the receiver, and from there it straight-tapers to 0.900 inch at the muzzle. A peek inside with a Lyman Bore Cam revealed extremely smooth lands and grooves. The barrel is 16.25 inches long, with a 40-port radial brake increasing it to 18 inches, for an overall rifle length of 355/8 inches.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
(According to the consigner this rifle is new old stock and consumer unfired)
The Browning is small enough and light enough for a youngster to shoot while being large enough for grownups to love, cherish and show off when company comes. Everything about the rifle that appears to be precision-machined steel actually is. The finishes on wood and metal have long been quite nice.
