Picked up a few .22s in '21 and two were rifles. Got a new 10/22 scoped combo to replace the one that my daughter claimed. Hopper helped with the sight in so we could smoke a little pot! The little 2" terracotta pots are a fun 100yd target! Second buy was a Henry Evil Roy and Roy is about the most fun I've had with a .22 in a long time. Ringing 4" steel off hand out to 50yds was no problem, past that was more of an issue with eyes and buckhorn sights.
I can agree that 50yds with iron sights is about the limit of "fun" fun for me too.
