Springfield 2020 Rimfire

[King31]

Has anyone had a chance to pick one of these up yet? How do they shoot? Do they feel like a 10/22 with a wide stock? Thanks!

Nice looking rifles, but looks don't shoot, and for an M.S.R.P. of $800+, I'm out.

After a quick look see at SA website the photos don’t look like they have any similarities to my very old 10/22. That’s not to say the trigger or shooting capabilities might not be similar. But to my eyes they don’t look like they are comparable. Sorry I haven’t shot or handled the SA.

That is the high end model. There are several options that can be had starting out at just under $400

Thanks.The 10 round rotary mags are interchangeable between the two rifles which leads me to believe they would be shaped similarly on the bottom part of the stock. I'm going to try and get my hands on one this week.

Yeah, I just scrolled through the offerings and clicked a random link.
Turned up a AA grade stock.
Still, $800+ is a lot of money for a rimfires.

Long thread over in RFC about them. Mixed impressions.

Well color me surprised. I only looked at the bolt and assumed it was a conventional mag. or a tube. Didn’t look further, didn’t realize they were rotary mag. Guess I’ll have to investigate a little further. Thanks.

800+ is for like AAA wood

 

[drillsgt]

I pick up a synthetic HB on Tuesday and I have an AA wood on order I’ll let you know how they do.

 

[Mongo59]

They look great. I can't wait until the start showing up used in the LGS so I can have a chance at one.

They are made in Turkey and the cheapest model is around $350 and run upto $1000

 

[BackFromDC]

Was kinda interested until I saw the price tag. Their basic model is made in Turkey, and you can get a Turkish made Winchester Xpert for a hundred less (the Xpert takes 10/22 mags as well).

I really want to like the recent bolt action offerings from SA, but it just seems like a lot of money for what it's producing.

Might be a decent rifle.
Wonder how the base walnut model will do compared to similar in CZ.
My old 455 did .4 at 50 yards for 5 shots w SX rifle match. Bone stock.

Hopefully better feel than standard 1022.
IMHO only 1022 that feels good is the old fingergroove.

To the OP thanks for the link. I will have to look in to these.
I picked up a finger groove 10/22 a while back. I get it; but don’t fully understand the hype.

My first thought was "great another quality rimfire ".......my second thought was "wow, takes Remington 700 triggers ", my 3rd thought was "its a turd, a polished turd" to quote Springfield website on performance "
