# TAURUS TX22 Competition 22LR 5.25" 16rd - Black

The Taurus TX22 Competition is a dedicated rimfire performance pistol built around a 5.25" bull barrel and a slide cut that allows the optic to mount directly to the barrel for improved alignment and stability.

Designed for competition, training, and high-volume rimfire use, it delivers precision with minimal recoil.

Hassle free fulfillment is always a big plus and this transaction was just that, the Taurus TX22 is just great fun, both at the range and for Steel target competition. Seems to be a little picky with ammo but once it’s sorted out the gun is a great running plinker.

Shipment could have been faster but it eventually arrived. The Taurus TX22 Competition is very light compared to my Ruger Mark II, the difference between stainless steel and polymer. The TX22 is easier to take down and reassemble, by far. Accuracy is extremely good and there were no issues when firing a mixed bag of .22LR of differing velocities, bullet weights and composition. The trigger has about 1/4" of take-up but is moderately light (didn't measure) and comfortably crisp when firing. I might look at improving it. Overall, I am pleased with the product and the service from KYGUNCO

KYGUNCO always has fast shipping and fast processing. The TX22 is amazing I have put 200 rounds through it with no issues and it is very accurate. I have shot out to 25 yards with it and was able to maintain a 3 inch group which can probably be better. I am blaming it on the shooter not the gun. I am still learning the red dot. At 10 yards I was stacking shots in a 1 inch square. This is a fun gun and you will not be disappointed.

Great target pistol. I also own a TX22. These are fun to shoot and have a very good trigger. KY Gun Co has been great to deal with. I have purchased several firearms from them.
