OMG!!!!!!!!!!!
does no one here hate the 10-22?
AKKKKKK!
It's like an invasion of the POD People!
I've only owned two 10-22's in the past 36 years and am not quite the fan that I see here!
True I bougt my used 10-22 for $100, 22 years ago and have shot sand rats at 135 yards with a near stock 10-22/scope and I have turned that same 10-22 into a Tactical Trainer for a mere pitance, all with near factory spec 'stuff' on it.
All in all I have less than $400 in a 22LR I have used for 22 years with great joy, whats so special about that?
So what if it is a rifle, that with a business card by the barrel band and $70 dollar trigger job, will hit sand diggers at 135 yards with bulk ammo. What's so special about that?
As for marlin 60's
I bought a Ruger, it might not be perfect but I don't need a second 22LR that shoots "just as well"
As for me I don't photograph rodents, I gather grouse and eat like a king!
