Overview

The Rossi Youth Matched Pair 22 / .410 single shot rifle delivers a versatile training and field platform for new shooters and experienced enthusiasts alike. This break-action system combines two popular calibers in one compact package, allowing for quick transitions between .22 LR for target practice and .410 bore for small game hunting.

Each barrel is fitted to a single receiver, and the included storage bag keeps the spare barrel secure when not in use.

Features & Specs

Manufactured by Rossi, this category rifle is built around a simple, durable single-shot action. The combination of rimfire and shotgun capability in one firearm reduces the need for multiple guns. Key specifications include a manual thumb safety, a synthetic stock that resists weather and impact, and a blued finish for corrosion resistance. The .22 LR barrel offers a 16.5-inch length with a 1:16 twist rate, while the .410 bore barrel measures 18.5 inches and accepts standard 2.5-inch and 3-inch shells.

Two interchangeable barrels: .22 LR and .410 bore (3-inch chamber)
Break-action design with automatic ejector for quick reloading
Overall length of 35 inches with a 12.5-inch length of pull
Weight of approximately 5 pounds for easy carry and handling

The Rossi Youth Matched Pair 22 / .410 single shot rifle uses a simple cross-bolt safety located at the rear of the trigger guard. The barrel selector operates by removing the forend, swapping barrels, and reassembling. This process takes seconds and requires no tools. The front sight is a brass bead, and the rear sight is an adjustable open notch, offering a clear sight picture for both calibers.

Who It’s For

This firearm is designed for youth shooters, beginners, and adults who want a lightweight, low-maintenance rifle for teaching fundamentals or for casual plinking and small game hunting. The .22 LR barrel provides inexpensive practice with minimal recoil, while the .410 barrel adds versatility for squirrels, rabbits, and clay targets. The short length of pull and manageable weight accommodate smaller shooters without sacrificing control. Hunters who pack light will appreciate the single-shot reliability and the ability to carry two calibers in one case. The Rossi Youth Matched Pair 22 / .410 single shot rifle is also a practical choice for homesteaders or recreational shooters who need a compact, no-nonsense firearm that performs across multiple roles.
