xl_target Posted September 17, 2009 Report Posted September 17, 2009 Good to see a forum for tactical .22's. I currently have a 10/22 that I bought new in 1984 for $99. I have put thousands of rounds through it with very few problems and no loss in accuracy. In the mid '80s Ruger went away from Walnut stocks which was a shame. I was going to add tactical mods to my 10/22 but now that we have actual AR replicas available, I think I will keep it stock as the wood on it is very nice.I'm looking for a M&P15-22. Haven't seen any in the stores around here yet. I enjoy squirrel hunting but in Minnesota it can get very cold in squirrel season. When its -20 on a frosty January morning, it can be a challenge to keep your gun running properly. The 10/22 runs in any weather so it will be interesting to see what the S&W .22 does when it gets that cold outside. It will also be interesting to see if the polymer holds up at those temperatures.
Microgunner Posted September 17, 2009 Report Posted September 17, 2009 Welcome. Looking foward to your reports.
