Are there any specific magazines dedicated to the .22 rifle ?
If the is could someone perhaps tell me.

I have picked up sporting rifle. Not a bad read.

Goes to show that no one wants to tell a thing, poor members that don't reply. Come on try and help those that are new.

There was a magazine a couple of years ago called .22 shooter (I think) but I'm sure it died a death, I did buy it for about a year but it got to a stage that it was more adverts than actual content.

If you join the NSRA they do a regular (quarterly?) .22 related magazine.

I'm not a member myself, so can't comment on it's quality.

If you want a good book on small bore shooting AG Banks "Book of the rifle" is a classic, worth dipping into. There are probably much better modern books, but the sheer practicality of the pre war approach is interesting to read today.

There are no worthwhile magazines about gun ownership and shooting available in the UK.

I can concur on AG Banks "Book of the rifle" as being an excellent book as are the following;

.22 Calibre Rifle Shooting by CS Landis.

Small Bore Target Shooting by WH Fuller.

The book of the .22 by Richard Arnold.

Try Abe books for used copies of any of the above.
