[QUOTE="geezer77, post: 4194273, member: 49872"] I like 10/22's, and I've owned and shot a mildly-customized 10/22 "squirrel gun" for many years. Custom stock, threaded Ruger barrel (by Grumpy's Guns), TBAC Takedown suppressor, 80's Leupold 2.5-8X Vari-X III with parallax set to 60 yards by Leupold techs, and a custom trigger (can't remember the mfr) set to exactly 2.0 lb. It's a nice light squirrel rifle, very accurate and reliable, and I have always liked Ruger's rotary box magazines. I doubt I have $600 in it not counting the suppressor (it multitasks on several guns). But for shooting paper I'd much rather have a CZ or even better an Anschutz bolt action. By working at it, I suppose a person could manage to spend $1200 or even more on a 10/22, but honestly I don't understand why, when one of several factory made bolt action .22's would probably outshoot it, and for less money. But of course, in the end, it's your money and yours to spend as you wish. Good luck with it. [/QUOTE]
