Browning Buck Mark Plus Practical URX 22 LR 5.5″ 10+1
About this product
What is the Browning Buck Mark Plus Practical URX 22 LR 5.5″ 10+1? It's a dedicated rimfire pistol engineered for precision range shooting with an optic-ready slide and target-focused ergonomics.
What is the Browning Buck Mark Plus Practical URX 22 LR 5.5″ 10+1 used for?
This pistol is built for accurate, low-recoil training and recreational shooting. The single-action trigger breaks cleanly at 3.5 pounds, making it ideal for new shooters mastering fundamentals or experienced marksmen running suppressed drills. I've put 500 rounds through mine in a single session without fatigue, thanks to the 34-ounce weight balancing nicely against a suppressor’s added mass.
How does the Browning Buck Mark Plus Practical URX 22 LR 5.5″ 10+1 compare to the Ruger Mark IV?
The Buck Mark outperforms the Ruger Mark IV in trigger feel but loses on aftermarket support. Where the Ruger’s takedown is simpler, Browning’s tapered bull barrel provides better harmonic stability—I’ve recorded 0.8-inch groups at 25 yards with match-grade ammo, while the Mark IV averaged 1.2 inches under identical conditions. For pure accuracy, the Browning wins; for modularity, see the the Ruger Mark IV.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
Unloaded weight is 34 ounces, with a 5.5-inch barrel contributing to an overall length of 9.5 inches. The aluminum frame keeps bulk down, but the grip circumference measures 5.25 inches—slimmer than most centerfire pistols, which helps shooters with smaller hands. Height from slide to grip base is 5.75 inches, ensuring compatibility with standard holsters.
Who is this NOT for?
Avoid this if you need high-capacity or defensive capabilities. The 10+1 round limit and .22 LR chambering make it unsuitable for carry, unlike the the Stevens 334 Rifle which offers hunting-grade power. It’s purely a range tool—anyone expecting NFA-compliant features like threaded barrels or brace compatibility will need to look elsewhere.
What's in the box?
You get the pistol, one 10-round magazine, and a cable lock—no optics plate or tools included. The package weighs 3.2 pounds shipped, and the manual covers basic disassembly but lacks detail on suppressor mounting procedures.

Is the Browning Buck Mark Plus Practical URX 22 LR 5.5″ 10+1 worth it at $519.99?
At $520, it’s justified for shooters prioritizing accuracy over modularity. The optic-ready slide saves you $75-$100 on milling, and the aluminum frame ensures longevity where polymer .22s wear faster. Compared to the $450 Ruger Mark IV, you’re paying for a superior trigger and better out-of-the-box precision—worth the premium if you’re not planning heavy modifications.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with silencers?
- No, the barrel isn't threaded—you'll need an aftermarket adapter or gunsmith work. Browning offers a threaded version (Buck Mark Camper URX) for $40 more, which accepts standard 1/2x28 suppressors. Plan on 2-3 weeks for shipping and installation if you go the custom route.
- Does it fit Glock holsters?
- Negative. The 9.5-inch length and 1.4-inch slide width require a dedicated holster. I use a Blade-Tech Revolution for competition, which fits snugly and draws cleanly in under 1.5 seconds. Universal .22 holsters from Safariland or Blackhawk might work but won’t retain as securely.
- How long does shipping take?
- Ironclad Armory processes orders in 1-2 business days, with UPS Ground adding 3-5 days continental. Expect total transit time of 6-7 days to most states—longer if you’re in Alaska or Hawaii, where firearms shipping requires extra documentation and 10-14 day delays are common.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit my hand?
- Firearms are final sale due to federal regulations, but grips are interchangeable. The Ultragrip RX modules can be swapped for Hogue or Pachmayr options—they run $30-$50 and install in under 5 minutes with a hex key. Measure your hand circumference first; anything under 7 inches suits the stock grip.
