Ok, time to brag on all of your rimfires. How many 22s/l/lr, 22mag, 17hmr, 17hmr2 rifles do you have?

[jimh]

(4) 22 lr total. 3 rifles and i pistol

[klsm54]

I have whittled down my rimfires to...hmmm...3 rifles and 2 handguns. They are all 22 LR, except the extra cylinder in 22 Magnum for the Ruger Revolver.

I never jumped on the 17 HMR bandwagon, never imagined a spot for it in my arsenal, although I have had a couple 22 Magnums over the years.

I have sort of taken a shine to the Mach II though. I'm not sure what for, but I might just consider one of them to tinker with.

Add one more rifle as I forgot the Henery golden boy .22

[Bill]

I'm not sure. I have some here with me and some with my dad and some at Two Moons and some with the brother-in-laws. Maybe I should call and find out sometime.

Oddly enough, I only have 2 rifles and 1 pistol.
I have an early 10/22...about 1966, I think. That does 99% of what I use a 22lr for. I also have a Winchester 69A bolt action- rarely use it, but it was my first rifle, and I ain't about to part with it. Killed a boatload of woodchucks with that, back in Thee Olden Days.
My one handgun in 22lr is a Browning Challenger 11.
Don't own a 22 magnum. No interest in the 17's- they look like good rounds for ground squirrels and prairie dogs, but a bit light for eastern woodchucks.

Ruger 10/22
Anschutz 22Mag
Ruger 77/17
Rohm 22 Pistol

ok i must revise my .22 count and reduce it by one. i sold one of my rifles this past weekend, once i purchased my m77/22 i was going to be caught a little short on $$when i pick up my two centerfires from the gun smith after their tweeking. so i look at it as i swapped the marlin for the ruger. (no not the 39a).

[jimiowa]

Well there are 3 user rifles and a couple of closet queens(setimental value only).
2 autoloading pistols.

[dovehunter]

.22 LR rifles:
Mauser sporter bolt action
Marlin 989 autoloader
Mossberg Palimino lever action
Norinco autoloader (Browning clone)
.22/20 ga. Savage model 24 combination gun
German single-shot rolling block

.22 WMR rifle:
Savage model 65M bolt action

.22 handguns:
Ruger standard auto
Ruger Super Single-Six Convertible
German single-shot target pistol

I guess that works out to 7 rifles and 3 handguns

First off, you can never have too many rimfires! Lets see I have Rugers in 10-22, 77/22, Bearcat & Single Six. Rems. in 510, 12c, & 241. Win. in 63 & 9422M. Mossy in 640 Chuckster and a H&R break action. I think that covers it for now, but subject to change If I find something I need. Oh yes forgot my Marlin 39A, how could I do that, getting older.

[deputydon]

Welcome on from Northeast Nebraska popplecop.

[popplecop]

Thanks, deputydon, glad to be here. I actually forgot another one, also shoot a TC Classic, in fact it is the most accurate semi auto 22 I've shot.

[Purebred Redneck]

How come I've got this feeling that he's still forgetting one???


I've heard good things about the TC. I'm not the kind of person to dump a lot of money in rifles (much less 22lr) so I havent really taken a good look at one. I guess I'm from the line of thinking that for the price of the TC you could take a 10/22 and make a personal work of art (if you will) that shoots great too. On the other hand, I'm also from the school that says it's a financial sin to pay more than 150 for a 22. lol
