Your favorite range/plinking rifle?

[Dees]

What is it and why?

 

[Seafarer12]

My Rem 572, It is a great plinker. Will shoot anything I load in it unlike my 10/22. Butter smooth action and accurate.

 

[gcrookston]

anything that will shoot sub MOA...they are always fun.

 

[CH47gunner]

CZ

CZ452 Special/Trainer with Simmons 22Mag 3-9X32 scope.
It's not a "big bucks" gun and is accurate & whole bunch of fun to shoot. At the range or busting ground squirrels, it's the one I usually pick.

[Code3GT]

my el cheapo Savage .22 WallyWorld special with a Tasco scope. Cheap, accurate, and fun to shoot...win-win for me!

 

[SimpleIsGood229]

My 1946 Izhevsk M44. Loud boom, big blast, and flame breath from cheap ammo. Eese glorious!

 

[dakotasin]

had a pretty good time w/ my 700 lvsf in 7-08 today...

 

[RobertRogers]

10/22, like many people

 

[nero45acp]

Winchester 9422 Trapper .22LR

Light & handy, well made, smooth action, good trigger, and accurate. Inexpensive shooting fun.

Marlin 39A...of course it's my only rifle and only plinker at the moment, but I'll never get rid of it. The guy next to me had one of the AR-15 .22LR conversions which I want to look into. That looked pretty fun too!

 

[Squidward]

10/22

Cheap ammo, cheap thrills

 

[Win75]

Marlin 917M2S.

It shoots so well it makes me look good.

 

[dmazur]

Ruger M77/17 w/ 6-18x scope.

This rifle "feels" like the larger M77MkIIVT, but you can shoot it all day.

Well, almost. The price of 17HMR is starting to pinch on the definition of "all day".

 

[shevrock]

H&R m755. my first and only rifle [for now]. it's accurate, and hasn't jammed once [well i have a few 22.'s that end up powder less.].

 

[Deer Hunter]

M44, hands down.

You have no idea how satisfying it is when, 12 lanes down, a guy with an M4-esque AR-15 carbine looks over and asks,

"What in holy HELL are you shooting?"

 

[AndrewGWU]

10/22

 

[Sitting Duck]

My Remington '77 ADL 22-250 with a brand spanking new Clearidge 6-20X40 on it gets the job done at the range. I'm currently shooting 200-250 yards and having a blast trying to make tiny groups and yucking it up with anyone that shows up to make noise.

 

[Blue Brick]

Marlin 795 +3 mags

 

[MJ]

1942 Savage

 

[VPLthrneck]

Henry Golden Boy .22 but running a close second is the M-N 91/30

 

[marineman]

AR-15. Accurate, reliable, controllable, cool looking, makes lots of noise, and shoots fast. No more needs said.

 

[Girodin]

For plinking I typicaly pack my Saiga in 7.62x39. I just purchased a gsg-5P and I plan to submit the forms to SBR it. Having shot the GSG-5 rifle I suspect that when the SBR is complete it may well take over as my favorite plinker.

The PS90 is a really fun little plinker but the price of ammo keeps it out of the top spot (same for the various 223s).

 

[1832]

A 7.62x39 upper on a Del-Ton Lower with a 3-9 variable scope. Still lower priced shooting than the 5.56 ARs and more fun in its own way.

 

[22lr]

My ruger 10/22. Cheap to shoot, accurate as all get out, fun to burn though 3 25 mags and know that it only cost you $1.50 (the price of 2 30-06 rounds), and I have a Dragonov stock on it so it is good practice for a tac rifle.
