Howdy folks.

A friend of mine has to opportunity to acquire an old Winchester Model 77 22LRcal rimfire semi-auto rifle for a rediculously low price. It would be her first ever gun purchase. How are these guns as plinkers and 'shoot-em-till-your-fingers-are-too-sore-to-load-the-magazine' guns?

She is a beginner shooter and has no interest in hunting or target competition, but loves to shoot now that she's been introduced. She's shot a number of my guns (I'm guilty of getting her started). She loves the 22s, and I'm just wondering if it has the same fun factor as the Ruger 10/22 she's already put hundreds of rounds through.

Thanks guys and gals.
