[QUOTE="Tom Schindler, post: 900840, member: 56140"] We have a Marlin Model 60. We really like it. It is a semi-auto and tube mag. The Ruger 10/22 is a really nice gun, but the price for the 60 is just really hard to beat. I like that the Ruger has all sorts of stocks, mags, etc. for it. While that is a good thing, I see it as a bad thing...for me. I end up wanting to invest more money into it to customize it. I have a Savage .22 smooth bore for shooting bird shot. It is bolt action and a rifled barrel can be had for about $150.00. The accu-trigger is really nice on Savage rifles. Stick with a .22 LR. Ammo is cheap. If you get a bolt action tube fed rifle, you can shoot .22S, .22L, and .22LR ammo. If you get a .22 Mag, you are stuck to always using .22 Mag ammo. It is not cheap to buy. With a semi-auto .22LR you must use .22LR ammo. Not that it isn't a big deal, but sometimes it would be nice to shoot something smaller. Hope I was able to help. Tom [/QUOTE]
