Hardly practical for anything other than random plinking and getting a big grin after squeezing the trigger 30 times.
As for ammo cost it sure is less than any centerfire unless one reloads off course.
I wonder if the fun factor will last though.
Kel-Tec has/will soon have a 30 round .22WMR pistol:

I've never owned a Kel-Tec but the 30 round capacity and the inexpensive rimfire ammo have caught my interest.
What do you think, nice plinker or just a waste of money?
Took a tour this morning and saw most of what is listed above.
Somehow I need to get adjusted to striker fired pistols and forget about clean breaking sears. All nice but so much plastic which makes for light carry but presents one more thing to get used to.
P232 is only(!) a .380 but darn...
Agreed on the HK P7, I had one and liked it until one day under stress it wouldn't fire: I was not squeezing it !
Need to take a look at the PPS, thanks.
For .22 I have the Walther TPH and this is what I've been putting in my pocket on occasion but now with the CWP I would like to step it...
A soon to be issued CWP is forcing me to think small, small enough to be carried on my 5'10" 140 lbs frame.
Long ago I had a Walther PPK/S 380 which shot straight but bit my big hand every chance it got, so no more Walthers for me.
I'm thinking about the Sig P232 but maybe there is a high...
Thanks guys and much obliged for all the good information.
Brad, I hope to find the elusive Suhl in my searches but it will take some doing to replicate your setup and your skills. Thanks for sharing.
Owen, the game would be at first the USBR and the NRA silhouette rimfire matches. If I...
Thanks guys, I knew I'd hit pay dirt here.
Unfortunately I could find no Suhls at this time but I will be talking to Mac Tilton -MT Guns- on Monday as he seems to be a key element in finding what I need.
This Russian and used German route is not quite as easy as walking in the next best...
Yes I did look at the CZ 453 Varmint but by the time you add a butt plate and sights and some kind of a comb you are in Annie territory.
The Russians are indeed the best bang for the buck such as the Izhmash / CM-2 but while many people list them at $600 + nobody has them in stock. They...
Having not shot a rifle in competition I thought I'd get started with a .22 lr just to see if I have what it takes without breaking the bank on thousands of rounds of centerfire ammo (not a reloader at this stage).
Anschutz is the magic word in .22 target rifles but even used ones that have...
I hearby officially give you the R127 Award For Coolest 7.62x39 Shooter I Have Yet Run Across!
Allow me to say ditto. Humbly.
The krochus rifle is what I'm dreaming of but I'm awake enough to know my limitations when it comes to performing any kind of handiwork on rifles. As for having...
Smokey Joe and SSN Vet I was afraid or rather expecting such answers simply because what you guys say makes sense.
I guess being new to rifle target I want to avoid a more expensive round until such time that I feel comfortable that I want to pursue the sport.
At that point I also...
Armoredman thanks for the reply.
Afraid I must answer no to the hand loading issue. Never gone down that path having been lucky enough to be at the receiving end of free shot shells and pistol rounds. That is no longer the case hence the need for cheap ammo.
The CZ is a nice rifle with a...
First I apologise in case this issue has been previously debated but my search didn't produce results.
I like the low cost of the 7.62X39 round which will allow me to enjoy target shooting without breaking the bank.
I do not like AK style rifles and while aware of the bolt action CZ 527...
Do you have a good recipe for .38 Special Hollow Base Wadcutters that feed, cycle and shoot accurately in the Smith&Wesson Model 52?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
