This it "NOT" about your idea of the perfect survival firearm, we did that, and we did that well.
This is about one subject ONLY.....the .22 Magnum Rim fire and to a small extent the .17 caliber rim fire cartridges.
Yes, .22 Magnum ammo is six times as expensive as .22LR ammo, (say sub $2.00 per box vs. $12.00 per box of 50 cartridges). It is for sure not a do everything cartridge. And I have always dreamed of a NEW cartridge the .25 Magnum Rim fire, same case length, only .25 caliber.
Dollar for dollar the .22LR is six times better, IF and it is a sizable "IF" .22LR can get the job done.
So all things .22 MAGNUM including .22 Magnum Rifles and Handguns.
Note: I love the .22 Mag. and hoard 3,000 rounds of .22 Mag. ammo. I own a CZ Model 452 FS in .22 Mag. and a Anschutz Model # 1515-1516 in .22 Mag. also a converted S&W model 17 w/Target Hammer and Target Trigger in .22 Magnum, & Remington 597 sporter, in .22 Magnum.
And I am buying a Remington 597 w/Laminated stock and Heavy Bull Barrel in .22 Magnum.
What do you think.........about .22 Magnum....
