22's are so addicting, I have a sweet 10/22 that I built up and is super accurate. I bought and built up another 10/22 for my girlfriend to get her into shooting (it worked!) the only thing is it's all purple... I also have my grandfathers 22 rifle, its an old tube fed high standard from sears. Now im thinking about getting a S&W 22-15 or another 10/22.

Ever tried it with a scope on these short distances?

Would that be the Ruger 10/22? There is one chambered for the .22WMR. More, a 17HMR version? What is it, please?

This is a fairly accurate rifle. Normally, the wind at short distances won't bother me, but this one with the scope and the available ammunition hold just good.

If it is the Ruger 10/22, then it is the first modern rifle chambered in .22 with a professional look. This has light recoil; you barely notice it, and easy handling characteristics. And the ammunition it requires is quite cheap and easily available. .

That’s an ideal rifle for any beginner. A simple rifle with equally simple ammunition and operation. Good for plinking or target practice.

You can do all the modification you ever dream of, but for a beginner, it is as good as it comes from the shelf. I mean, the regular factory made rifles work fine with any enthusiastic beginner. And as the beginner grows, the rifle grows along. Along with the size (thickness) of the wallet. As, one by one, the modification ideas start to appear.

How do you make out the Ruger SR-22? Last time I mistook an AR-15 for it.

That’s because Ruger came out with the SR-22 model with the 10/22 receiver embedded in an AR-15 look alike frame.

AR-15 uses oversized mags. Standard 10/22 mag goes in SR-22. Next time, look out for this. (Unless that part was modified too!)

Why, you can check it out and see the position of the magazine release, and the position of the safety and the charging handle. They come close to that of a standard 10/22. Not like the AR-15.

This is the most suited rifle for customization. You can do it at your own garage, or order for a customized 10/22 from a clone manufacturer. The designs will be similar but most of the parts will interchange to give you action exactly to meet your specs.

It is inviting to be modified! The barrel of this 10/22 uses a unique attachment method It is screwed into the frame (not pinned) That is, the barrel is not threaded and screwed. Two screws are used there to attach the barrel. This makes it quite easy for removing or attaching. Most of the rifle is constructed with methods like this, and all it takes is a screwdriver, a hex key and maybe a few punches (not the fist ones, hey!)
