Done. I've been moving them as I come across them.
"Deadly accurate?" Custom trigger pull must have done it. I've had five 10-22s over the years, and while they were fun plinkers, they were certainly not deadly accurate. Rough trigger pulls, lot of creep, even on the "deluxe" version (beautiful wood).Quote:

Hey RBB i know this is off topic but i would love to hear some of your stories from that trap line you had when you was 11 you should make a thread about it .
And i dont own a 22 rifle ive been looking into some of the light weight 22 survival rifles but i do have a 22 revolver witch last time i shot it, it rickashade right into my leg lol:)
I don't know that I would have used lol after that statement, buy might I suggest a gun/hunter safety course.Quote:

I understand that accidents happen. What were you shooting at? What distance was the target? In your sight picture what was behind the target?Quote:

Well there ya go. Shooting a metal target at 25 yards with a projectile traveling around 1000 fps - ricochet should be expected.Quote:

Just giving you a hard time. But let me ask about the target. Was it the knock down style and was it intended for use with a 22?
yep knock down style intended for a 22
Just seems kind of close for a metal target. If your aim is off and you hit the frame, you will get ricochet every time. Oh well, glad you're OK.
Growing up, my dad had a Glenfield .22, 15-shot, tube-fed. It is a great gun, but it's his.
When I got my first .22, I got a Ruger 10/22. I polished the trigger and action, installed a bolt buffer, got rid of the barrel band (this one shoots better without it), floated the barrel, put on a bipod and got a BIG scope.
I can sit at the range at the 200-yard line and bust 4" clays all day long. I LOVE to see people's faces when I pull up, head out to the 200-yard line, open up the case and pull out a .22. Most can't believe that I can hit anything from that distance. I've made enough money at times to pay for the gun club membership. It shoots good at everything up to about 200 yards, but not much farther than that. Of course, you have to adjust the scope for the range and windage.
It works great and has never let me down and I put all kinds of cheap ammo through it. Got to use the factory mags or get the ones with the steel feed lips though.
If you had a junk revolver it's "possible" a sloppy fit and lineup of the cylinder and barrel would shave a little lead from the slug, otherwise a ricochet or a target that shoots back got you and if you hit the target it should have flattened the lead. Shaved lead wouldn't do much to a leg in that case. Cock the revolver(check first for empty) and wiggle the cylinder and check for any play.
If I shot myself I think the biggest problem I'd have is trying to figure out if I should throw the target away or the revolver. Either way, one of 'em is history.
You simply can't go wrong with a Ruger 10-22 or for that matter a Ruger MKIII Hunter or a Super Single Six. I would certainly bet my life on any of these.
marlin 522n microgroved bolt action. .25-.50inch groups at 50yds in a bench vice with a bunch of different brands of ammo. i'm not that great of a shot and it's kind of hard to go to the range now to get more practice. my daughter loves it though.
Remington model 66 Nylon, wish I still had it.
Does my Stag arms M4 count ? It is a .223 with the .22 bolt conversion kit. cheaper to shoot and lots of fun.
If it's your favorite, then, well, I guess it's your favorite.
I'm really kind of liking the little Marlin I traded for,took it out and shot it the other day,held 15 rounds+1,and hit 13 out of the 16.....gotta work on my aim a little
Any woman that hits 13 out of 16 earns my respect. Oh, was he runnin' at the time or standin' still?
Nah,he was standin' still,he didn't think I could hit the broad side of a barn...:sneaky2:
My fave is the only one I got. A Marlin 60. I love her. Picked her up used for 125 she was like new despite being around 6 years old.
My personal favorite is my S&W M34-1 w/ 2" barrel.
They just don't make 'em like this anymore... Oh well, such is "progress."
Tie between my CZ 452 and Ruger 10/22. CZ for hungtin' and Ruger for blastin'. Or was it the other way around. Oh crap, I don't know...I love them both. That reminds me of an old Irish toast. It goes something like this : Raise beer and say "Here's to wives and girlfriends....May they never meet". Hahaha!
This is a pic of my Marlin 15-YN...It is a youth model single shot which I have reworked to be a training rifle for my kids. It will shoot CCI CB Longs into groups you wouldn't believe at 50 yards and Eley Tenex even better.
I have killed a truck load of Squirrels with it and crows out to distances that I wont even mention here.
It has aluminium pillar block bedding, Free Floated Bbl, Trigger job with over travel stop.
Its a kids gun tuned for an adult.

My favorite is my ruger 22/45 with PACLITE upper receiver. Weaver rail, threaded barrel, match grade piece of kit... excellent shooter.
Hey! How about shootin' your way over to the Introductions Section and telling us a bit about yourself?Quote:
