Still Shooting The Old Model 15 Springfield .22
Model 15 - Single shot - bolt action - manual cocking. Old as the hills; but still as accurate as ever. One of the most accurate ( iron sights ) .22 calibers I own. I use the .22 sub sonics for the tree rats, that continually chew up my white cedar weatherboards. Quiet as an air rifle.

You say "still shooting" and I reply,,,

Why not! My personal observation (having grown up with one on my bedroom wall),,, If that old rifle was well cared for and still has a good bore,,, It will shoot alongside any modern made rifle. There's absolutely no reason not to be "still shooting" that old gun. Aarond .

On old guns, I shoot 100 year old rifles and they do just fine.
22s do not wear out, the actions may fail eventfully and parts an issue.
