Just when I thought I could stop looking at the sales ads for these you post this really positive account of your experience. Shame on you . Seriously - thanks. Always glad to read real world reviews.

I was on the fence. After reading all the great reviews and watching videos doing basic research on it I figured I'd give it a shot. What pushed me over the fence was the $50 rebate

For those near Indy, Gander in Greenfield still has 22s (some 17s as well, didn’t notice any magnums) in stock. With the 20% discount there are some very attractive prices.

For instance, they have a Savage B22 FVSR for ~$250 out the door for club members, non-club member price was like $15 more. Steal of a price for about action with a heavy, threaded barrel.

Is this comparable to the Ruger Precision Rifle? Just curious.
I looked this up and read about its upgrades online over the Mark 2.

It will come down preferences more than anything else.

Well, I saw this video that MAC did, and was intrigued. I don't have a suppressor for it yet, and seeing as how it's using an AR brace, I left the riser on my Romeo 5, (like I would on an AR) but this is where I got the idea... I did try it without, but I was really smashing my face too much. That's more for the traditional stock like on the rifle version. I do want an SBA3, but I had the stupid Shockwave laying around, so I used it for now. Then I swapped out the A2 grip for a leftover Ergo grip I had, and here we are...

Been thinking about that, but it couldn't be the Sig. Maybe the SB Tactical...

Really is a good buy for someone looking for a top end 10/22.

Picked up a Hawke Vantage SF 3-12x44 and put it on the RPR .22 tonight. The Side Focus version seems to be a nice step up from the standard Vantage series I previously had. Obviously the side focus knob is easier to use than the AO model, but the turrets are easier/nicer to use also. The clicks seems a little more positive and the knobs are easier to grab a hold of. I was very impressed with the previous Hawkes I owned, so I doubt this will disappoint either.

I should have never read through this.

This thread got me into building a 1022 and now I’ve got a want for a charger as well.

Gonna watch some YouTube on Chargers, which isn’t gonna help my wallet.

Time for the next gun raffle for my VFW, and we've settled on a 10/22. Here's the deal. there is a rift between doing a standard rifle, and a charger. When I ordered mine, the dealer forgot he had ordered it, and ordered it again, so he has a second one. I was thinking do one up with the brace for the raffle, but not sure how the tickets would sell in small town IN over a regular "squirrel gun" style rifle. Either way, I'll probably end up having to go to a gun show to sell tickets like I did for the Marlin 1985 we just gave away, and I think that the braced charger would do well at a gun show...

What say you all?

Giving the tippmann m4 22 another try. Picked up an elite. Should be fun to put it against the kriss dmk

Decided to do the folding thing on my 10/22 Charger Takedown to make it more pack friendly...

I’ve found myself lately thinking about a pistol suppressor host again. Something simple, inexpensive, relatively compact and at least a decent trigger.

Typically my got to 22 pistol is a Ruger Mk, but I know myself well enough that I go down that road it’ll turn into something crazy. I’ve been using my wife’s BuckMark as a host, and I’m really only so-so on them.

Options I’ve considered:
-Ruger SR22
-Taurus TX22
-S&W Compact
-Walther P22
-Walther PPQ 22

What others are in that size group that I’m not thinking of?
