Taurus TX22C Pistol
Best optics-ready rimfire pistol for training and recreational target shooting.
This is arguably the most capable rimfire pistol for shooters who want a serious training tool that doesn't feel like a toy. By pairing a high-capacity magazine with a factory-ready optic mount, it bridges the gap between a casual plinker and a legitimate defensive trainer, though you sacrifice the heft and recoil impulse of a centerfire platform.
