Re: In Defense Of The Lowly 22LR

I love shooting 22lr. I have a Sig Mosquito that my kids love to shoot. I love it when my middle son asks me if he can empty the mag as fast as he can. He's learning to shoot, learning safety, and when he can shoot a bigger pistol he'll already understand how to keep it on target.

I also have a 22lr conversion BCG for my AR. That thing is a blast to shoot and has been 100% reliable. I can go to the range or my uncles farm and let the whole family shoot all day for about $20. I just run three or four .223 rounds through it every hundred rounds or so to keep the gas tube clean.

My oldest son has a Marlin 795. When we go the range, he always tries to cut the middle of the target out with his shots.

My oldest and I are both hoping to qualify as Marksmen in the Appleseed program shooting 22s.

Back on the Mosquito...a lot of people gripe about this gun but I've found mine to be nearly 100% reliable with halfway decent ammo.

22s are awesome! :cheers2:
