Well I am having a blast with my RRA AR15. Seems like .223/5.56 is as big of a caliber rifle as I plan to own for quite a while unless something falls into my lap. Still getting accessories together and working on getting it sighted in... but I would like to add another to the stable.
My dad has a .22 bolt rifle that works pretty sweet, but it is a single shot. It also is not mine.
I have been reading up on the Ruger 1022, and it is semi auto and has 10 round mags. I could stock up on those and shoot all day for cheap.
It will probably be a plinker mostly but it will double as another HD/SHTF weapon.
I am looking at one of these two from Bud's.

Is it worth trying to track down one of these used? How much of a price break could I stand to get by buying preowned? (Preferably well cared for). Or should I just order one and have it sent to my FFL dealer?
Thanks so much in advance! Lots of knowledgeable folks on this forum....
