Ammo cost has been killing me here lately, so to offset the price a bit I've been shooting .22lr a bit more. I've had a Ruger 10\22 since 1981 and my SR22 is probably 10 years old. After a 2 month back and forth with RK I finally got a Heritage Rancher carbine. I gotta say I'm happy with this. Looks like a museum piece and I've been able to get a few 1" groups with it at 25 yards. I just ordered a Settler Mares leg in .22 and hope its of the same quality. Gonna be more .22lr purchases in the future.
