I got my Mossberg 702 .22 LR on Saturday ... Nice and Lightweight there synthetic stocks. Shoots very well and only fouls cycling every 1 in 40 shots.

 

Everyone says you pay for what you get... I just bought 100 rounds of everything and tried them all today and the CCI work very well amongst ELEY.

 

Once Tested and Zero'd i then Took it to another location an Shot 2 bunnies with it. Nice and accurate one shot and rabbit hit the floor.

 

Hope this kind of helps :/ If you go Semi-Auto be prepared that there not as acurate as a bolt action.

Have a cz varmint .17hmr in my opinion its great value for money the trigger isn,t great but you can get a kit for it of rimfire magic there very cheap and make a great difference. I find it very accurate and have had no problems with it at all apart from the trigger just my 2p worth

hi this nick dadamo, you ask about rifles ? before u buy anything decide what u are using the rifle for, ie target shooting, live quarry ? remember if you are target shooting u need a heavy profile barrel for range work. For shooting ie live quarry u dont need heavy profile barrel as u are unlikely to be shooting large amount of ammo . before u buy ask other shooters,go to a gun range if they are available, dont rely to much on the gun smith as they will sell u what they want, i know i have some bad experiences from various gun smiths. so be carefull choose carefully.
