About This Firearm
The Browning Buck Mark Standard URX is a blowback .22 LR target pistol built for range and bullseye shooting. It has an MSRP of $600 and weighs 34.0 oz. Its sights are Browning's Pro-Target set, adjustable front and rear, over a 5.5-inch slab-sided barrel with polished flats.
The grips are Ultragrip RX, overmolded with finger grooves and shaped to work in either hand. The trigger is a single-action alloy part, gold plated, behind a manual thumb safety, and the magazine holds 10 rounds. Nothing on the pistol is cut for an optic from the factory, and Browning sells its own Buck Mark reflex sight as an accessory, so a dot is a separate purchase on top of the gun. The pistol runs 9.5 inches overall.
Two target .22s get cross-shopped against it. The Ruger Mark IV Standard has an MSRP of $579 at 30.1 oz, 3.9 oz lighter, with a longer 6.0-inch barrel but fixed sights and a one-button takedown. The Smith & Wesson SW22 Victory has an MSRP of $469 at 36.0 oz on the same 5.5-inch barrel, with two magazines in the box, so it is the cheaper way into a stainless target .22.

Strengths & Limitations
- The receiver is aluminum alloy and the barrel is steel, so most of the 34 oz sits ahead of the hand where it steadies a slow-fire hold.
- A padded Pistol Rug soft case comes in the box.
- The grips work in either hand, so a left-handed shooter gets the same hand fit with no parts to change.
- Browning sells Buck Mark magazines as a separate accessory, so a second magazine is an extra purchase.
- The finger grooves are molded in, so a hand whose finger spacing does not match them has nowhere else to sit.
- Nothing is cut or drilled for an optic at the factory, so a dot means a mount, the sight and the time to zero it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What twist does the barrel use?
1:16, which suits standard and high-velocity .22 LR, so there is no load in the usual range it will not stabilize.
What is a slab-side barrel?
A barrel machined flat on both sides instead of left round. It takes weight off the sides and leaves a flat surface, which Browning polishes on this model.
What does URX mean?
The grip. URX is Browning's label for the Ultragrip RX overmolded grip fitted to this version of the Buck Mark.
