The Volquartsen Lightweight is a semi-automatic rimfire rifle built around a lightweight match-grade barrel with a taper-honed bore, mounted to a CNC-machined receiver with an integral Picatinny rail and the TG2000 trigger group. The reduced barrel mass makes it a fast-handling plinking and hunting rifle while preserving Volquartsen accuracy. The 16.375 inch barrel is threaded 1/2 x 28. Offered in .22 LR and .17 HMR with Hogue or laminated lightweight thumbhole stocks.
