Or if you know of a brand/type, that would be great. That will be my next small purchase to mess around with

Whats the difference between the types? Target, Sport, Tactical, Compact, Carbine


Carbine is the least expensive at $277 suggested retail

Carbine is just a shorter barrel, making I lighter but slightly less accurate. Not sure about the rest. You could find a used one at a good price, they're pretty damn common.

Ruger 10/22 with a tactical stock, w/extra clip, red dot scope and laser is what I have. I got a trigger job and it is spot on at 50 yes. Really fun too shoot.

Dayum, that does sound like a lot of fun. How much the whole setup run?

So $300 is the average price for a decent .22? For some reason I always thought they were cheaper, around $200.

You can get another rifle for around 200, but the 10/22 is worth the extra hundred bucks. Academy usually has them for around 275 or so.

Yes, with the blued barrel and wood stock. Nothing wrong with it, but I would want the synthetic/ stainless for 50 bucks more.
