I dont have alot of experience with .22's but i can say my 10/22 is very accurate. Reaching out to 100+ yrds, i can take out small Florida grey squirrels all day long. Im partial to Ruger anyways ... i have never had a lick of problems with it and it repeats performance every time. Im sure there are other more accurate guns or what ever but in my opinion its a dang good gun.
