522 FunGun Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 Hi I live in the Northwest Chicago suburbs.I am a middle-aged guy with a wife and two kids, my primary passion is bowhunting. Shooting and hunting with a gun run a close second.I belong to a private gun club in Northwest Illinois, not too far from where my camper is permanently parked so I am able to shoot once or twice a month depending on the time of year.Living near a big city the opportunities for rifle shooting are slim. I started shooting a handgun at 20 years old and for the majority of my adult life I shot handguns almost exclusively. Now I shoot .22's 90% of the time. First was a Henry standard model, so much fun to shoot and by my standards, very accurate.Next came a Ruger MkII that now has somewhere around 5000 rounds through it with no mechanical malfunctions. Afew dud rounds but never a FTF, or FTE.My latest .22 favorite is my Sig 522. Simply a great .22 autoloader. Rimfire shooting is a great way to practice marksmanship and for me, a great way to spend time with the kids plinking away the hours.
