I joined an F150 forum today.

 

It was only a mater of time probably lifetime oil too like the trannys vehicles are disposable now not meant to last beyond warrenty

 

JK Lets know how it is over on the dark side

 

It's pretty dead. I'm just joining to tell a guy that the V8 doesn't have turbos or intercoolers.

 

@memario1214 has an account over there as a vendor.

 

10/22 takedown.

 

I had a dedicated AR-15 lower with a CMMG .22lr upper. It took black dog magazines. Was a great setup and a good trainer for the manual of arms for my AR-15 in 5.56. The other part that was nice about it was being able to switch uppers and use different calibers.

I know some folks just get a .22lr conversion bolt for their standard AR's but I preferred running a dedicated .22lr upper.

.22lr is fun all around.

 

Do the bolt.

It really helps you to do controlled cycles.

If you can eye the target during bolt cycles you will encourage smoother shooting.

In addition, it's cheaper because it takes longer to send one down the barrel.

 

Cleaning will be equal. It's based on number of rounds fired and .22 is dirty. You'll just go through rounds faster in a semi. If you want reliable in a semi auto get a Ruger 10/22. There is no better semi .22 LR platform. Rimfires are always a little wonky in a semi, but that one runs better than any other I've seen or heard of.

 

Eh, IMO, if you're going to get a bolt rimfire get a 17 HMR. 22 isn't fast enough/long reaching enough in the flat part of it's trajectory for the accuracy of the bolt platform to be significantly better than the semi.

 

No. I'm only joining to call a guy an dip. It'll be a one or two post thing.


Besides, you'd get lonely without me.

 

Sorry. You're stuck with me. Like the herpes you got buying 5 cheap hookers instead of one expensive call girl.

 

Ruger 10/22 for the win. I have 2. I also have a couple single shot Cooey Model 39 bolt .22 rifles which are fun too. Savage makes a good mag fed bolt .22 as well. I'd step up to a .22WMR or .17HMR to really take advantage if a bolt gun"s ability, but for the cost of those calibers though, you may as well just get a .223.

 

I agree, but I think we are comparing apples to oranges.

Let's start simple and cheap, then see if the shooting bug bites and he finds he wants to go down the rabbit hole.

 

Do we tell him that he can build a completely custom 10/22 for only 2 - 3 times as much money as an off the shelf one?
