I have a shooting buddy with a repeater. I wish I had bought one when they were available.
Not to my mind. It is a treat to see any Griffin and Howe sporter.Here's a pair from days gone by: A Springfield M22 in original unaltered condition and another M22 customized and restocked by Griffin & Howe..View attachment 772398 They also deflowered it somewhat by chambering to .22 Hornet. (Is that cheating?)

If it shoots as good as it looks it looks like a winner!!My Anschutz bench rest rifle outside--the late afternoon sun makes the colors in the bird's eye maple stock come alive.

I've only had that one about three weeks now, and have shot only one box of good ammo thru it. So far, the results are promising. Nine, five round groups at 50 yards, using Eley Match (black box). Hopefully I can do better with more trigger time.If it shoots as good as it looks it looks like a winner!!
I have often heard it is loaded by RWS and is the same ammo as R-50.....I have had some with a very small R-50 printed in and end flap.
Thanks for the clarification, fellas. I'll try the UM22 next time I can get to the range.Yes RWS R-50 and UM22 are basically the same ammo. RWS makes the ammo under contract for Federal.
Here's my Kimber K22 Classic Select. The lighting wasn't that good this past weekend but I tried to do the rifle some justice in the late afternoon sun. I'm hoping to add a Leupold scope in 2018.
Nicely done,creative photos.
