Don’t be put off by the name; we think ‘Mini Sniper’ is an allusion to the fact this CZ .22 LR rimfire rifle is highly accurate and precise, and perhaps got lost a bit in translation. What it does, though, is blend elements from the target world with those of hunting to produce the best of both.

This is a mid-weight .22 rimfire bolt-action rifle with dependable action, detachable five- or 10-shot magazine with a one-piece scope base fitted and a solid, weather-proof, polymer-coated wood stock. Best of all is the fluted, blued barrel of varmint proportions that’s screw cut and shorter for hunting use. In essence, this is a .22 rimfire capable of extreme accuracy for trickier shots at longer range. It comes with a soft case for travelling, too.
