kawi kid Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 i have been thinking about getting a 10 22 for fun and to just plink around with. i wanna be able to go out and blow off some steam and shoot alot with out spending hoards of money. i have been looking an these things look like they have plenty of aftermarket support to customize and make "your own." buckeye outdoors has them on sale right now for $199 and i didnt think that was to bad at all... any thoughts or suggestions?

hue jass Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 Definitely 10/22. Millions of mods if you ever want to. I just added the Volquartzen precision extractor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rawlins87 Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 10/22's are nice little guns. Plenty of aftermarket which you already know. Might want to look around though, 199 seems kinda high for a 10/22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawi kid Posted June 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 it normally was 250 and i saw gunbroker it was about the lower end range for one. but i know i will prob change stock to a more ar looking piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hue jass Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 You can pick up a 10/22 for less than $130. Try Cabela's for stocks and barrels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottb Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 I was in the same situation at the begining of the year. I looked at a few 22 rifles that retail for under $200. I wanted something good out of the box. Check out www.rimfirecentral.com for a ton of info on rimfire rifles.I purchased a Savage MKII bolt action with scope for $159 at Dicks Sporting Goods. A few weeks later, a Marlin 795 semi-auto with no scope for $129, also at Dicks. It got old quick with the bolt action, manually ejecting the spent round each time. But I still like the bolt action. I looked at the Remington 597, but that retails for closer to $200.In my opinion, the Savage is more accurate then the Marlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I've never had any problems with my 597 22mag but the aftermarket for them is nothing compared to the 10/22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedytriple Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I have a Rem 597 22lr good gun for the money it has a weaker aftermarket for sure but there is still stuff out there for it. I liked the size of it over the 10/22 better. A bit bigger then a 10/22 almost the size of a rem model 700. And they are cheaper to boot. 10/22 is a good gun I have shot one before, but it is kinda small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedytriple Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 If you want a tacticool one just buy the sr-22 model. Then spend more money making it accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
