New Winchester Wildcat .22 semiauto

Wildcat Uncaged

This looks interesting. Especially with a $249 MSRP. It takes 10/22 mags too.

Think I'll just stick with my reliable 10/22s

That's interesting! Will be interested in seeing how people like them.

Built-in rail. Peep sight. Built-in sling attachments. Takes 10/22 mags. Reversible ambi safety. $250 MSRP. This thing is a winner.

THE BEST PART IS I saw a TGC video last night that demo'ed the takedown procedure. You hit a button on the back of the receiver and the whole trigger group just drops out the bottom. That's very slick engineering, and will make for super easy cleaning... if you're the kind of weirdo who cleans guns. But I don't think I've cleaned my 10/22 since the 90's.

The TGC video is where I saw it also.

I hope that isn't the case, or it gets sorted out. I'm also worried that it doesn't look like it is all that strong. For a kid it wouldn't be a big deal but it doesn't look like it would stand up to slinging up and put much pressure on it if you are building a tight shooting position.
Outside of those two concerns it looks like a major competition for a 10/22 if not an upgrade.
