The Ruger with a Bull Barrel is the bomb and a tack driver. I also have a Ruger 10/22 Rifle with a bull barrel and can put rounds from previous shots in the same hole with a scope from 75 yards. Worth every penny in cost. But these are both Bull Barrel guns which I think makes a difference. JMHO.

Gun fanatics are like people who work out at the gym or diet experts, they all think they know better than anyone else with similar experience. I will never claim that.

Man, When I owned my 30-40 Krag/Jorgensen (A really gorgeous gun with amazing sights) the rounds cost $1.15 a piece and that was in 1983. a box of 20 rounds was like $25 dollars. I think I had to work like 4 hours to earn that much money then.
