So I'm going to be in the market for a .22 rifle soon. The ruger 10/22 always seems to be a favorite, but I can't help but notice that it is at least $50-$100 more than offerings from mossberg and marlin but they are basically the same thing (please correct me if I'm wrong). Pros I see for the 10/22 are the amount of aftermarket accessories and wood stock. It doesn't have last shot hold open tho (but I'm not sure if others do or not).
Can anyone tell me why I ought to consider paying more, or buying a used 10/22 over another model?
Also are there any models that can be easily taken down for storage etc. but still retain the qualities of a good .22 autoloader (maybe the 10/22 is can do this but like I said I don't have any experience with them).
