The joy of 22 long rifle - Page 3

22s are one of my favorite calibers to shoot and out number all my guns in the times they are shot.

Got more guns then I can shoot in one day but the 22's get the nod more than half the time, I had 11 for a long time, only sold 2 in the last 50 years and today I have (12) 22's. My latest gun acquisition:

Love .22s. Most fun firearms probably...

Currently discovering the joys of .22 pistol shooting:

Colt Woodsman sporter in 4 3/4" and S&W 17 6" currently getting a lot of time out

Looking for a couple of ,22 rifles after moving countries.

Thinking:

Brno .22
Browning SA-22 Takedown

Later date:
.22 Lever (Maybe Browning BL?)
Pump action .22 (anyone got any thoughts on that)

I own a S&W M&P semi-auto pistol and a Henry Golden Boy; both in .22 lr. What I love about the .22 lr round, is that it allows me to shoot much more often. I don't reload, so the .22 lr enables a retired person like myself, to spend extra time at the range. It's also a great round to introduce children & grandchildren to the shooting sports. I have other guns in various calibers; but I shoot and enjoy my two .22s the most.
