I been wanting a .22 to get my kid shooting in a few years, and a plinker for me in the meantime.

Well, with all the love the Ruger 10/22 gets it has a competitor, but to me I like the look and operation of the lever action. This post was edited on 10/8 at 10:46 pm

I love the accuracy. Thing is a piece of beauty with the octagonal barrel. Don't buy it. I never want to take it out cause I'm scared to scratch the thing. My dad has the regular lever action and the thing is accurate as any gun I've ever shot. Just don't buy the cheapest bullets. You also have 16 bullets to shoot. I will be buying another lever action soon just to throw in the boat or truck, and not worry about beating it up. Get you a heritage six shooter and a Henry lever and you could rule the world for 400 bucks.

Are they decent guns considering the price?

I love that gun. It can fire everything from cb shorts & longs, all the way to LR and it doesn't care. Good buy.
