I suggest you pack up your 10/22 and hit the olympics then. Sounds like you have the right gear.

So because you shot better groups with a 10/22 than you did with a bolt gun (while I'm sure you found the best ammo for each gun) then autos are as accurate as bolts now? Damn man, you need to spread the news to all the professional competitors. Dumbass snipers shoot bolt action rifles exclusively. Show them your 10/22 groups and open their eyes!

You ever heard of a Barrett .50 BMG sniper rifle?





They ain't bolt action.

Many snipers are also using AR-10s and M14s for sniper rifles. Just depends on the situation.

$600 on a .22

spend <$200, get a different brand reliable .22 accurate out of the box .22 and call it a day

but if competition shooting is your thing then by all means..

That's because it was designed for "sniping" big stuff.

and it was and still is used as an anti-materiel rifle and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) tool.

Let's just talk about situations of long distance and extreme accuracy.

I guess I shouldn't have said "exclusively" or mentioned snipers at all. But you can argue all you want, semi-autos are not as accurate as a high-end bolt action.

Can a semi-auto be very accurate? Yes. Are they more than accurate enough for 99.5% of real world use? Yes. But, if I'm setting up a gun to drive tacks, I'm not starting with a semi-auto.

as much as I hate using this term i just finally feel that in this conversation it's appropriate
"fanboy"

and i'd like to define that as someone who is so much of fan of something that they don't consider anything else in the world, no matter how suitable it could be, as an alternative

headslash is a ruger 10/22 fanboy

You think? I have 11. It's a good basic rifle that you can modify in to whatever you want. I also have 3 CZ and 2 Savage BOLT Actions.
Teague is spot on about the ammo.

The one I posted is my current favorite. I just put a FJ Feddersen 18" bull barrel on it, and it was worth every penny.
PC hammer and adjustable sear
Rimfire Technologies trigger
