The Browning BL-22 Grade II: American Rimfire Excellence
The Browning BL-22 stands alone in the lever-action .22 rimfire market. This is not hyperbole—it is simply the result of Browning's commitment to quality, reliability, and accuracy in a category where such standards are often overlooked.
Design and Operation
The BL-22 Grade II features a receiver machined from solid steel and finished in satin nickel with attractive scroll engraving. The action cycles with a smooth, efficient 33° lever throw that is noticeably faster and easier than competing designs. The trigger is engineered to travel with the lever, eliminating the finger pinch hazard common to many lever-action rifles.
