How Many Rimfires ?

Been a while since I was on so this is a bit late but it doesn't matter.
3 for me and soon to be 4
a .22 voere bolt action, nice and consitently accurate
a .22 Brno model 1, found that one in geelong vic. it shots well also
a .22 lever action Henry that I am baby sittting for my daughter until she reaches the age.
and as soon as I get my permit to acquire a .22mag/20g savage that needs lots of tlc.
I suppose I'll be looking for something along similar lines for the Son when he reaches the age as well. (although I think he will go more for the centrefires than rimfire) Very Happy

Three Runger 10/22...Differnet config's for each gun.
Remington 514 single shot

I love the Ruger 10/22. Lots of options out there for it.

.22's are one of the best cartrages IMO. I dont think there are many things that the little 'ol cartrige hasnt taken.

Did I mention, that they are fun and cheap to shoot Smile

But Glenn...You only get HALF the fun...You can't reload a .22 case...

Hello Phil!
There is standart theard .22LR rifles for silencers and plastic bottle has for cap too. The bottle ofcourse has bigger measure.
I have the adapter between those things.
Now I can use bottle like silencer. With first shot I make the hole to the bottom of the bottle for other bullets.

Sorry my language.
Kauko.

I reload for my Remington 788 .308, Encore 7mm-08, 30-30, 357 Blackhawk, 45/410 contender and my 22-k Hornet contender. I have plans to reload for more than that in the future. Even with reloading...shooting a cheap case of .22's is a small slice of heaven.

I have limited places to shoot my big guns. The 22 and 22-k hornet are the only guns I can shoot regularly here at my house without bothering the neighbors. Poke

It is becoming very difficult to find places to hunt or practice at…makes me wish for the ol’days when I was able to start hunting as soon as I stepped out the back door. Change is not always good. Crying or Very sad

I'm fortunate in that I still can. I have deer that cross my back yard just 50 yards from the back door...
