Looking for a .22 Rifle

[BRBrett]

Just something cheap to plink with.

What are your thoughts on the Savage 64FXP($129) and the Ruger 10/22 ($189)?

If you've got another recommendation let me know!

10/22s are good guns, uncle has one and he's been satisfied with it. I would also recommend a marlin model 60. I have one and it's a reliable accurate gun.

 

[hdsprstr]

Marlin Model 60 usually run about $149 at academy.

I'm kinda in the same boat, and the Remington 597 has caught my eye. There are high-capacity magazines available for it as well.

 

[BRBrett]

I'm gonna head to Jim's and Academy tomorrow to see who's got what and for what price. If they have high cap mags then that's a plus. Not sure if I want a scope or not.

i would get the Ruger 10/22, its a great little rifle, and there's tons of aftermarket support for it. Everything's readily available for it.

if you were going bolt action, i'd get a Savage Mark II. very accurate and cost less than a CZ. mags are cheaper for it as well.

Love my 10-22 but it is very addicting to accessorize. You can even get up to a 50 round drum for them. I have mine in a Tapco and it is very fun to go plinking with. My project is below. They are never finished.

and walmart

Not all but the Walker WM has a good gun selection. Give them a call.

denham springs walmart carries rifles and shotguns now as well.

also, hammond.

walker seems to be the best stocked though

10/22 is my choice (I have 3).
Whether you keep them basic or trick them out, they shoot and shoot and are a lot of fun.

About .04/round if you buy in bulk, or get better quality.

I love all 3 of mine:
Compact Carbine
Stainless on Syntheic with laser scope
Anniversary edition blue on wood.

 

[BRBrett]

Just grabbed one from Academy.

Academy on siegen is out of them.
Academy on Airline has one more.

 

[BRBrett]

Give me some recommendations for a scope

 

[xsilentxninjax]

ever think about a .17HMR or firebolt ?

although the .17 is only bolt action, where as the .22 is in semi
