Rimfire Section

[DangerDanJD]

Anyone given thought to creating a rimfire section here on TGO? Lots of folks shoot rimfire I think they/we would enjoy having a section dedicated solely to rimfire. Not sure if this is the correct place to post. If not, move it or let me know.

Maybe after there's rimfire ammo available again. :)

OS,
Didn't you post you had 1000000 rounds :).

I like the idea and would post in that forum about improvements I made to my Ruger 22/45's and the SIG 1911 22.

Yeah, but there ain't enough with that kind of stash to support a separate forum. ;)

 

Actually, I like the idea fine also; I have various .22LR rifles and handguns and do indeed think of rimfire as a distinctly separate genre of gundom.

 

On the other hand, the long gun and handgun forums aren't really overwhelmed seems, and I'm sure there would still be plenty of scattered postings outside a rimfire section.

I'd be in, my household has added 2 more rimfire rifles just this month. I plan on shooting quite a bit more rimfire this summer Edited February 15, 2014 by KKing

I've got more rimfire guns than anything. I'd be into it, I don't guess we really need it, but it would be handy.

I definitely would be low man on the knowledge totem, but I'd be more than happy to see a rimfire section. Not sure I could do much in the way of useful contributions, but would enjoy and learn from it I'm sure.

[Randall53]

Sounds good to me, I have several 22's and just added a CZ bolt action within the past month or so.

[Murgatroy]

Before rimfire became as rare as hen's teeth, I shot more of it than anything. I still do, just less frequently.

 

I could see a dedicated rimfire section, but like OS mentions, the longarm and handgun forums aren't being flooded right now.

I like. I just scored in 2,100 rounds of .22 today. That brings me up to around 9500.

I would be in for a Rimfire section.  I am really into 22's more than anything and spend a lot of time of various aspects of them.  I would think there would be as much interest in a separate Rimfire section as there is Black Powder.

[DangerDanJD]

Definitely not something that is necessary, but I think it would be well received and rimfire section might be a particularly suited to new shooters.

Don't get me wrong, I'd be an eager participant. :up:

[TGO David]

My general rule of thumb is that we add new forums cautiously and only after so much traffic for a particular topic has sprung up in existing forums that more or less cater to it.  We've actually got too many forums now, IMO, and some of them are due to things that we saw as being an emerging need that subsequently petered out.

I was hoping for a grenade section.

I would like to see a rimfire if there were postal matches set at. 22 F Class Standards for bragging rights. Would be very interesting. Not everyone has a 2000 dollar long range rifle but lots and lots of people have. 22s. But then there is that ammo thing at the moment.

I like the sound of that. We could still do it and just post in long guns.

The best place for rimfire discussion is RimfireCentral.com. Of course you may have already known that.
