      10/22 is the top on my list.

      the difference is about 200 and you can use that on ammo.

              I can plink all day with a Ruger 77/22. It's the best .22 shooter I've ever had.

                10-22's seem to be far more recommended than the 597 models?..is the difference between the two that large? both in quality and workmanship?

                    .22s use Magazines. Not Clips. I would buy a 1022.

                      Another thumbs up for the S&W 15-22. Every time I take it out, it's in constant use either with my boys or with guests - I barely get to shoot it. It gets almost 1000 rounds put through it during each session.

                        10/22 because you can mod every single part on it.

                        keep an eye on the forum, you can get some sweet deals on older ones, 70's and 80's model.

                            10/22, I had tech-sights one one and it would hit a shoot n see paster(the bigger ones) at 25 yards every time.

                              With a Neos you can get a carbine kit and shoot it as a pistol or a rifle.
