Hey all,
Finally got my GPA to where i promised myself it should be, and as a reward i think its about time to purchase my first rifle. Following the advice of every post ive read, the 22 is the way to go, and i fully agree. However, in looking at all the 22 variants, i stumbled upon the "tactical" 22 lineup, such as the M&P 15-22 and the sig 522. These guns seemed interesting, and for the price (both around 450) i thought they might be a fun first rifle. However, several buddies from back home have the CZ lineup, including the 452 varmint and 455 American. I really have taken a liking to these 2 rifles. I like the reliability of a bolt action, as well as the superb accuracy they offer.
My primary uses for this rifle will be a LOT of plinking/range time, as well as some small game hunting. I have no idea if you can even consider hunting with the 15-22, but if so, i would love to here what you guys think of the idea. I really like both guns, and am completely torn, so any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot, and sorry for the long post
Chuck
