Whatever you get, make sure it's made in China. They need a little more money for more balloons and the cyber attack they are planning.

When you go to sell it, what's the best way to tell the buyer that it sucks? Seems many of our gun loving family are happy about sending a dud "down the road." As often as I see people write of that, I have yet to see anyone tell how they handle the sale.

Keep the 280 AND buy a lighter mountain rifle.

I have been checking all over for one of the stainless 32s. Have not seen any on the market yet.

You have it behaving pretty well now. Drop down to a 1" dot or square target. I think you'll tighten things up a bit more.

Yep, in all cases a 15" barrel was faster than an 18" barrel. I much prefer a 16" lever 44 for appearance, feel and portability.

The OP didn't give me the impression that the discussion was on 22LR silencers. The 1K reference was part of why. I'll let him clear it up if he was.

By the time all fees/taxes etc are added to the cost of a suppressor, it's very easy to hit the 1K mark for a centerfire rifle can.
