Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The High Standard “The Sharpshooter” .22 LR with the 5.5-inch blued barrel is a classic, competition-oriented rimfire pistol that embodies the company’s long-standing commitment to precision craftsmanship, intuitive ergonomics, and exceptional target performance. Positioned in the High Standard lineup as a highly capable mid-level target gun, the Sharpshooter shared much of the DNA of the company’s top-tier Supermatic series, retaining the hallmark fixed barrel design that provides outstanding inherent accuracy, along with High Standard’s famously smooth, crisp single-action trigger. The 5.5-inch bull barrel gives the pistol a superb balance—heavier toward the muzzle for steady hold yet short enough to remain lively in hand—making it ideal for bullseye shooters who prefer quicker transitions without sacrificing precision. Its deep polished blue finish highlights the refined machining and elegant contouring of the slide and frame, while the finely checkered grips and natural grip angle make the pistol point extremely well, offering a stable, comfortable purchase even during long sessions on the firing line. Adjustable target sights allow shooters to fine-tune elevation and windage for various loads, and the pistol’s excellent sight picture is one of the reasons High Standards were so dominant in mid-century U.S. target competition.

The Sharpshooter’s recoil system cycles standard-velocity .22 LR smoothly and consistently, contributing to its reputation for reliability, while its precise lockwork and tight tolerances give it an almost bespoke feel despite its role as a more accessible alternative to High Standard’s top models. In use, the Sharpshooter delivers a clean break, minimal vibration, and impressive repeat-shot stability, creating an experience that feels both refined and purpose-built. Today, this model is appreciated not only as a wonderfully shootable rimfire target pistol but also as a collectible piece of American firearms history, reflecting an era when High Standard stood at the forefront of precision rimfire pistol design.
