Hello old logging road. As long as people pick up their shells - I hate it when people leave them behind as if someone else will come along and clean up their mess
in the woods people would be only able to fire their non-restricted. most of the people in this thread seem to have restricteds so we'd need to find a range.
$499 isn't a bad price for that gun.
The standard 10/22 ranges anywhere from $299-$349, if you can find them in stock. I had to wait 6 weeks for mine to come in. Tacticool stocks are $100-$180, then you have the 16" barrel and muzzle break included. All said and done, it's pretty much where a tacticool 10/22 should be, all without having to bed the receiver in the stock yourself because Ruger already did it.

Overall, I thought longer term and why not?
I guess so... Better start saving up.
Oh! I dropped by my local gun/hunting store today, and I tried out a Savage Mark II - not sure which version it was. But that's one nice .22! The Mossberg feels fine without the cheesy 25-round mag - the mag rattles in the plastic "AR"-style housing and feels super cheap/plasticy. But it feels light and nowhere near as solid as the Ruger 10/22 or the Savage Mark II they had there. There was also a Marlin XT-22R and that was one nice gun... smexy with the stainless barrel.

Damn, thanks for the link. That is a really good price for the Mark II F! I will see if I can get my friend to buy it as I'm still waiting on my PAL to be mailed to me... I just finished the course and mailed the application.

couldn't you make your own with pvc or similar? would take two seconds to set up and should be somewhat sturdy, as long as your target hangs with steel wire. stress from impact onto the target shouldn't traslate onto the frame itself.
I learned that there is a ton of force acting on the target and frame when it's hit with a round. I've had pieces of FMJ embedded in the steel legs, and shredded the airplane spec wire with flak. PVC wouldn't last very long seeing as my steel legs are taking a beating.
Imho, use steel legs and chain for the AR500 target. Or snag one of those self healing targets from International. They're sexy, and for $150 they're around the same price as mine cost.

Thanks man!
I grabbed this from Canadian Tire last year. Probably the best $79 I've spent (other than ammo ). It's only good for rimfire, but it's a lot of fun for the 10/22, and the 1911-22.

ugh, the 715T.
It looks cool, but once you strip off all the plastic you see that it's nothing more than a cheap stamped receiver, barrel, and trigger. Even the trigger set is cheaply made. The buffer falls out of place while shooting, causing FTE and FTF issues. It's a toy at best.
That said, I spent almost 2 hours on my dad's 715T and it works like a charm now. I filed and polished the sear and trigger set, and made some fine adjustments to the feed ramp. Still, it took 2 hours to make this gun work. Spend the same time on a 10/22, and it will plink at 100 yards all day long.
Now where's my 9mm registration?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Stupid soft waiting period..... I want to shoot this f'king thing!
ugh looks like I'm heading up to poco tomorrow night.
anyone else heading up
?
Have a good one man!
I'm playing hockey tonight, or else I'd head out too. I'm thinking that tomorrow I'll get my buddy out. I owe him a shooting day for his past b'day that I missed.
Another day of spending. I hit both Italian Sporting and International to check out their sales. Picked up a variety of goods, including an SKS, some ammo, another scope, and other goods. Going to go and clean the SKS now
i just passed my restricted and non restricted tests today! 100% on both practical and 98%/100% on the writtens. the one wrong was my own fault for marking the wrong circle lol. but i knew the right answer.

so, what should i go buy? hehe
A safe to store your future acquisitions, bigger the better.
I really recommend Taccessories, I emailed them asking if I could pick up some stuff instead of having to ship it so it would save me the shipping cost. He was more than happy to do it.
