The Colt King Cobra Target 22 LR delivers precision shooting performance with its 6-inch ventilated rib barrel and match-grade construction. This stainless steel revolver combines Colt's legendary reliability with features specifically engineered for target shooting and small game hunting.
What Makes This Different
The King Cobra Target features a longer 6-inch barrel compared to standard 4-inch models, providing increased sight radius and velocity for enhanced accuracy. The ventilated rib design reduces barrel heat buildup during extended shooting sessions while the matte stainless steel finish eliminates glare. Target shooters achieve tighter groups at 25 and 50 yards compared to shorter-barreled alternatives.
Key Features

Target competitors and plinkers benefit from the extended barrel's improved ballistic performance, with standard velocity 22 LR ammunition achieving higher muzzle velocities than shorter models. The revolver handles both standard and high-velocity 22 LR cartridges reliably. Competition shooters appreciate the smooth trigger pull and consistent lockup across all six chambers.
