WATCH: Heritage Rough Rider .22LR Who_Tee_Who Review
Last updated: April 25, 2026 · Originally published: July 23, 2021
Is there anything better than backyard plinking with your .22LR Rough Rider Heritage Revolver?
If there is, neither we nor famed YouTube gun reviewer Who_Tee_Who want to know what it is. That’s because going out in your own Back 40 to shoot paper targets, steel gongs, or old rotten fruit is an American tradition for very good reason. Our right to do it is enshrined in our Constitution, and every round we send downrange is a little homage to freedom. Freedom has a sound, and that sound is “bang.”
As you’ll see in this honest review from Who Tee Who, the Heritage Rough Rider revolver chambered in .22LR is the perfect platform for plinking. With its simple, intuitive safety and excellent accuracy, GunPrime has these for around $200 at the time of this writing. You can get yours here!

I love shooting my heritage, it’s real accurate in 22lr, but .22 mag I’m not as accurate Yet! Carrying on my property I keep some .22 or shot for bad snake or rats and field mice, which surprised me once, I haven’t seen any field mice till after the bad freeze, rats sometimes around hay sure but field mice? Well another target.
The Heritage Rough Rider is a great revolver! Fun to carry and to take out plinking.
I would like to see Heritage bring out a version in 25 Stevens. I’m sure that Hornady would produce a modern load for the 25 Stevens.
The Ruger 10/22 should be chambered for the 25 Stevens, call it the 10/25!
