Saw a neat rifle today
 
Well, I guess it's part pistol and part rifle. It was a Browning Buckmark pistol with a shoulder stock and a long, heavy barrel. I REALLY liked the way that thing felt and handled. Felt like it was made just for me. Only problem is here in Pa. we can't use .22 semi's for anything.:rolleyes: That thing would have made a sweet little squirrel rifle. Maybe Santa will be nice this year and one will appear under the tree.:D Anyone have one or ever fire one?

Well, I have shot a friends Browning target 22. It was pretty accurate, very reliable feeding, and the cheap, quick shooting ammo makes it real fun. The thing I didn't like about this is the "looks" of it. It performs great, but I think they should've made a longer barrel for it because it has a stock...don't like the looks of "carbines" that much.

I have seen and drooled all over them.

Find one with the carbon fiber barrel at 3.5 pounds and you will fall over.

For a pack/tree rat/coon dispatcher what more could you need than a 3.5 pound auto loaded .22.

I don't think you need a long barrel with a scope or reddot sight.
I used to believe that long barreled .22's shot more accurately. It seems the longer sight radius of the iron sights seemed to help me aim a bit better. I believe about 16 inches is perfect for 22 rifle barrels.
