I went Plinking this morning with a few buddies. I had forgotten how fun 22s are to shoot. I took few picture of my favorites this morning. What is your favorite 22?

My favorites consist of a semi-custom 10/22 with an M1 stock, Tech Sights and a Swampf0x trigger. It's a ton of fun to shoot and pretty darn accurate too. I have a few BX25 mags that make it even more fun.
I also have a stock Henry 001 lever with butter smooth action.
My Buckmark Camper compliments both rifles nicely.

The middle rifle in this group of three. It's a Winchester Model 1890 pump that is actually in .22 Long Rifle. Most Model '90s came in .22 Short, .22 Long, or .22 WRF. Of course the .22 Long Rifle is most common and most popular of the rim fires so the rifle makes for a fun and accurate friend for range or field. During much of the Model 1890s heyday, the .22 Long Rifle wasn't necessarily king of the rim fires.
I'm really keen on the other two rifles pictured. The Springfield Model 1922 has seen some use in small bore competition and is delightfully well-made and accurate and the shabby little Winchster Model 57 started our two sons out on their shooting careers. Looks pitiful but shoots great and is a fun hunting .22.

It's got to be my Browning Buckmark URX that I put a Tactical Solutions threaded barrel on so I can shoot suppressed.
Hmm, probably the brunettes down at Arizona State University. The blondes aren't bad either.
Ruger 10/22 carbine with a 4X scope.
I would love to try a Marlin model 60.
Love those custom Rugers. Ruger 10/22 has sooo many third party options to choose from. That looks like the Hubble space telescope on the first one.
Favorite? Really?

My favorite pistol to target shoot with is my Browning Buckmark
Some of the funnest times I've ever had are plinking with my Ruger 10/22.
Picked up a CZ 452 in .17 HMR (I know it's not a .22 but it's a rimfire) and it's the most accurate rimfire I own. In fact I like it so much I want to get one in .22LR so I can compete in the silhouette meets at my local sportsmans club.

It is a Shepherd Scope with a dual sided picatinny rail mounted on it.

I only have one .22 rifle in my collection, so i'll say my Winchester 9422
Ruger Mark III Hunter. That beauty makes me believe I can shoot.
I have a Mark I target I really like. It was my first pistol and firearm. I was either 19 or 20 when I bought it. Still shoot it every once and a while.

Ruger MK III Target as my favorite and a S&W 22A as the runner-up. On my list is a nice .22 revolver, preferably one from S&W.
The rifle has long been sold but it was a big pre-war Unertl target scope
It is still my favorite 22 rifle and I would buy another one in a NY minute if I could find one but pre-war KK sports are very hard to find
I really like my Ruger M77/22. It keeps the property clear of ground squirrels.
Plugging those vermin is good practice for bigger game.

I have been loving my GSG 1911 pistol, you can use just about every aftermarket part for colt 1911 series 80, and it is darn accurate. I use it for my target pistol in my .22 shooting club.
I also am torn between my 10-22 and my GSG-522 for ".22 cal rifle", although I suppose the 522 isn't much of a rifle.

Rifles , the Marlin 39a, and Winchester 52b Handgun the S&W Mod 41( has quick change barrel feature, I have to barrels, long target barrel and short field barrel) target grade match semi auto.
