After a lot of research on picking up a good can-sniping rifle, the Ruger 10/22 just couldn't be ignored. It came up time and time again for its time-proven design, durability, and mod-ability. Good grief, one could easily spend $1000 in mods on this $230 rifle!
I went with the all-weather version, which Wal Mart lists for $203 (a great price!). However, your local Wal Mart has to order it, which can take weeks. As we all know, Wal Mart pretty much sucks to go into, so I decided to spend a tad more at my local Sportsman's Warehouse and opted for good service. After a lot of bickering, I talked them down on their $229 asking price. They gave me a $10 gift certificate to use towards this purchase.
I picked up a scope from Bass Pro and a couple of 10-round mags off ebay (which you can "jungle-clip" together.
I haven't had a chance to shoot this beauty yet, but I am really looking forward to it!
Let me know what you think...
