Looks like I've got room for a nice .22lr bolt. Arc. ______________________________ "Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed"- Johnny Cash "I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel." - Pee Wee Herman Rode hard, put away wet. RIP JHM "You're a junkyard dog." - Lupe Flores. RIP | ||

so sexy it hurts |
Nice. I wanted a new bolt 22lr too, and ended up with the Ruger Precision. Surprisingly good little rifle. "You have the right not to be killed..." The Clash, "Know Your Rights" | |||

Need a revolver and a bolt or other single shot. | |||

I'll definitely be picking up a bolt. Will look at the ruger precision, but also I'll look at which rifles I can get a cool stock for as a project. A .22 revolver is also a good idea.

Nice collection. There is definitely room for a Bolt action and a revolver. Like most folks I have the Ruger 10/22 (stock 1976 model) and a Mk II (5.5"). But the pride of my collection is my Anschutz 1712 Silhouette(which I waited 40years to afford; since I was 18) or my Weatherby Mark XXII (the Japanese one) My two favorite revolvers are an 6" M-17 and a 4" Diamondback No, Daoism isn't a religion | |||

While not a .22, I recently picked up a Ruger 77/17 (.17 HMR) that I really like. I found the model I was looking for on GunBroker - stainless steel bull barrel with a lamenent wood stock. It is a great ground squirrel rifle. Even though it is out of production, I'm sure you could still find new examples in .22 LR or .22 Mag. | |||

Nice -- I'm getting back into .22. I have a Nylon 66 and a Ruger Mark III 6-in bull barrel. My eyes are on the CZ 455 Military Trainer for a bolt .22 (and possibly .17 HMR swap-out barrel for S&G). ________ Homo sum: humani nil a me alienum puto | |||

Very nice collection, Arc. My grail gun for a .22 (or .17 HMR) would be the Ruger 77 series. They are beautifully made guns. The Lipsey's exclusive International version is particularly nice.

The Ruger ten shot GP100 is an excellent revolver. Mine holds the X ring of a 25 yard bullseye target at 25 yards. _____________________________ 'I'm pretty fly for a white guy'. | |||

So what are you thinking Arc? Ruger Precision or something more everyday? Or more exotic, maybe an Anschutz ... Something older? I'm sure you have something in mind, give us a clue! By the way, nice little family you have there! If you really want something you'll find a way ... ... if you don't you'll find an excuse. I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either | |||

$829 for a .22 revolver? Screw that! I'll keep shooting the Mk III that cost half that and does just fine. Killed a chipmunk with it just the other day at around 20 yards, first shot. I've been known to piss away money like nobody's business, but...nope, I don't want a .22 revolver that bad. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

Street price is around $600. The S&W 617 is over $700. I got my GP 100 used with Speed Bee's for right around $500. _____________________________ 'I'm pretty fly for a white guy'. | |||

Big fan of .22s, you definitely need a revolver. I've got these: Browning T-bolt 1971 Henry Golden Boy CZ 452 American S&W MP15-22 S&W Model 17 I need an Auto, thinking Buckmark. ________________________________ "Nature scares me" a quote by my friend Bob after a rough day at sea. | |||

I agree. I have and am very happy with both...but they do feel very different when shouldered No, Daoism isn't a religion | |||

Love those .22s! Hey Arc: My S&W Model 17 and 617 and Colt Diamondback are only 4" barreled versions, but I'm hoping the wood will make up for that missing 2 inches you favor! Now that I'm moving to a free state and will have more time to enjoy shooting them, I need to start doing so!
