This is a no-nonsense, six-shot wheelgun built on a sturdy frame that handles the zippy .22 WMR cartridge with authority. Now, here is the honest part: this specific unit carries cosmetic blemishes.

For the shooter who cares more about trigger time than a showroom finish, this Rossi R99 Plinker 22 Magnum Blued Revolver (cosmetic blemishes) is a solid value proposition.

Features & Specs

Rossi is known for making workhorse firearms that do not break the bank, and the R99 Plinker stays true to that reputation. Chambered in the feisty .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, this revolver gives you significantly more energy than a standard .22 LR while keeping the ammo cost lower than centerfire calibers. The blued steel finish is classic and durable, and even with the cosmetic blemishes, the metal underneath is sound. Here is what you are getting on the spec sheet:

• Caliber: .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (.22 WMR) – a flat-shooting varmint and plinking round with real punch.
• Capacity: 6 rounds in a swing-out cylinder for quick reloads.
• Barrel Length: 6.5 inches, providing a good sight radius for accuracy without being overly heavy on the belt.
• Action: Single-action / double-action revolver. You can thumb the hammer back for a crisp single-action pull or fire double-action for faster follow-ups.
• Finish: Blued steel. The cosmetic blemishes are typically light scuffs or minor holster wear on the cylinder or barrel.

This Rossi R99 Plinker 22 Mag Blued Revolver is a straightforward design with no frills. Fixed front and rear sights are standard, and the checkered walnut-style grips offer a positive hold. It is a shooter, not a safe queen.

Who It Is For

This revolver fits a specific niche: the practical shooter. If you are a hunter who needs a reliable sidearm for dispatching trapped animals or finishing small game, the .22 Magnum is a proven choice.
