Ruger has announced its latest bolt-action rifle product—the Ruger American Rimfire—and had the gun on display at SHOT Show 2014's Media Day at the Range.

Combining the success of the center-fire Ruger American Rifle and the popularity of the .22 LR cartridge, the American Rimfire is meant to offer hunters and target shooters alike a "best of both worlds" firearm.

The rifle incorporates many of the features made standard to the American Rifle—recipient of American Rifleman's 2013 Golden Bullseye Award for rifle of the year—and combines them with the innovations that have long made Ruger's 10/22 platform an American icon.
