Volquartsen Releases 22 WMR/17 HMR Takedown Rifle

Carroll, IA - Volquartsen Firearms, an industry leader in precision rimfire firearms manufacturing, has expanded on their line of rifles with the addition of the 22 WMR/17HMR VT2 Takedown.

Utilizing a unique button and lever combination, the VT2 requires no tools, no twisting, and no tightening.

"We wanted to build a takedown rifle like no other on the market. One that is modular and adaptable to the preferences of the shooter," commented Lead Designer Kolby Pavlock.

Simply depress the takedown button, release the locking lever by pulling down, and the barrel slides effortlessly out of the receiver. The rifle is then ready to be stowed, or the barrels can easily be swapped to switch between the 22 WMR and 17 HMR calibers.

For reassembly, simply slide the barrel back into the receiver and push the locking lever back up into position.

Like everything Volquartsen, accuracy and repeatability come standard. The unique design and exacting tolerances combine to ensure that the point of impact remains fixed even after removing and reinstalling the barrel. No matter how it's stored, the VT2 is built to be on target.

The VT2 is currently available in 22 WMR and 17 HMR calibers. This allows for the corresponding barrels to be swapped to immediately switch calibers.

"The VT2 Takedown Rifle is perfect for a hunting trips, stowed away with gear, or tucked into a backpack for quick accessibility. We are also planning for a 22 LR model to be available later this year," added Volquartsen President Scott Volquartsen.
