You did say .22 rimfire, and obviously most folk think of the .22LR, and it's probably the
most used, most underated/unappreciated little cartridge ever was. Can't imagine not having my Ruger 10/22 (with Leupold 4x scope). Lot's of fun.
BUT, after a long absence, I got me another .22Magnum Rimfire. It's a Ruger 77/22 with
the lam. stock, target grey stainless hvy. barrel, and I put a Leupold 3-9x compact scope on her. What a rifle! What a cartridge! Not too expensive for some plinking,
and much better for use on crows, etc. Accurate too - cover 9shots with a dime at
50yds.
