I mean, I get the whole adaptability angle, availability of magazines and add-ons, etc. but is that worth so much more? I've seen arguments here about accuracy and relaibility, and people have made the case that the Savage and Marlin are near equals to the 10/22 in most practical measures for most shooters.
Can someone convince me that I should spend $300 on a 10/22 instead of $150 on either of the others?

It depends on the model. The higher end ones are decent. I wanted a nice one with a heavy threaded barrel.
So...I decided I'm building one. It all depends on what you really want. I want higher quality than available from Ruger.
There's a lot of options...it's your choice
