Okay what is everyone's go to .22? I know we all have more than 1, right? but which is the one that sees the most trigger time? Not necessarily the prettiest, lightest or the most expensive, but the one that is just a blast to shoot?
I am sure 98% of you will say my 10/22, but I am hoping there are some variations out there. While I have a 10/22 and like shooting it it is not my favorite and would trade/sell it if need be. I also have a Remington Mohawk 10C, light and fun, but not the fav. Also there is the new Marlin 60 wife just got me last Christmas. Neat little gun and pretty accurate too. Still not the fav. Even the old Winchester 61, neat old rifle but heavy and just not the fav.
But way back in the corner of the safe, the one that got passed down from my Granddad, and will be the last rifle I ever part with. The most accurate, non-scoped rifle in my safe, yes more accurate than that little 10/22, and definitely not something you see at the range everytime, at least I have only ever seen one other in person, from the great state of Conneticut, New Haven to be exact, "DRUMROLL PLEASE" The Mossberg Model 152.
I know I went through a lot to tell you that, but it is my favorite .22. Definitely the most accurate .22 I have shot. and I would love to have another of these old Mossy .22 but they just don't seem to be around alot. The only other one I have seen was at a show last year and the guy was asking $400 for it. It was in pristine shape, but that is not what i wanted, I want one with character, like Grandad's. I want scratches and blemishes and real use from it, because that is what makes them shoot so good.
Okay now that I have told my story, tell me yours. I want to know the fav. even if it is a 10/22. But I would love to hear about some more obscure ones out there.
