needs more ammo
I guess I'm going to have to poke around at my local gun club and see if anyone has a lever action 22 they are willing to let me shoot at the range. I've never shot a lever action 22 or any rifle caliber for that matter... just a replica / knock off 1887 12GA and it felt like it nearly took my arm off.
I still think I want a bolt gun and the Savage FV-SR seems like it would be a great upgrade from my old 64F Semi loader.. ???
Also I just put in a form 2 and bought a rebel SOS 22 supressor...
Soooo....... for a grand total of like $550-600 I can have a relatively accurate, reliable, and quiet 22 with a 6-20x50 scope that I already have... should put a hurting on some chicken coop invaders....
^ ^ ^ ^
Does my thinking above sound reasonable?
Definitely try a lever action rimfire if you can. However, since you already own the 6-20x50 scope, and a supressor is on its way, the Savage is going to be more suited to the type of shooting you probably prefer compared to what a lever is best at.
