RE: 22mag, oh what to buy??
I had one years ago. It was a Mossberg 640 K Chuckster. I sold it to my Father in Law and after he passed away, it got lost in the shuffle. I always missed that rifle and a couple weeks ago I was in a gun shop and there set one just like my old one. I grabbed it quick. I don't know what all is available any more in 22 Mag but I think Marlin and Savage make them as does Henery. Ruger might still make one as well. Good luck, they are a dandy rifle when you need just a bit more whack than a 22 LR.
