Heritage Settler 22LR 20" Rifle, 15-Round Capacity, Walnut Finish - STR22LCH20
Heritage Mfg
The Heritage Settler .22LR lever-action rifle is a lightweight, handy little gun built for shooters who value handling and affordability. With a 16.5-inch barrel and tipping the scales at just over 5 pounds, this compact lever gun swings fast in tight cover and feels right whether you're riding behind cattle or hiking through ranch country. Chambered in .22 LR—one of the most economical and pleasant rounds to shoot—the Settler holds 13 rounds and pairs genuine firearm mechanics with a no-nonsense price tag that won't hurt your range budget.
What makes the Settler practical is its straightforward design. The lever action is intuitive and reliable, the aluminum alloy frame keeps weight down without sacrificing durability, and the polished black oxide barrel gives it a classic field rifle look. The wood furniture and simulated case-hardened finish on the frame tie back to traditional lever-gun aesthetics, though this is a modern production rifle engineered to the standards Heritage Mfg is known for. The cross-bolt safety is easy to locate and operate even with gloves on.
Sighting is handled by a front sight (drift-adjustable for windage) and an adjustable buckhorn rear—proven geometry that works at practical distances without requiring optics if you don't want them. The right-hand twist, six-groove barrel shoots cleanly and is easy to maintain. At 31.9 inches overall and 7.35 inches in height, the rifle is compact enough for a pack or scabbard, yet balanced enough to shoot steady from a rest or offhand. This is a rifle that gets used, not displayed.
The Heritage Settler fills a real niche: it's a lever-action .22 for people who want authentic mechanics, honest construction, and the satisfaction of a manual action rifle—without the premium price tag or the recoil.
