Target .22s

[Swampdog]

Was just wondering .Do any of you guy's fool around with any target .22s ? Lately I hve been gathering up just about all .22s I see(Target models or not).Got a couple of Anschutz.Got 1 Rem.540X that was born in 1967.I believe it is my favorite .Have an add in a field and stream from 1967.The rifle cost $69.95.Now IF you can find one they are at least $500.I also have an old Western Auto single shot That will shoot with them all. Go figger.BTW if anybody has or knows where there might be a set of scope blocks for the 540X Please let me know that is the only thing I am missing on this rifle.Thanks ...SWAMP

Just recently bought a Savage Mark II .22LR bolt action from Wal-Mart ($100). It has a synthetic stock and 10 shot detachable magazine. Includes a (cheapo) Simmons 4x15mm scope (looks like it belongs on a BB gun). I bought a set of 1" .22 scope rings for $10 and a 3-9x40mm Tasco scope ($30). The Tasco scope looks huge on the little .22 rifle, but it will shoot < 1" 5 shot groups at 25 yards out of the box which isn't bad for an "out of the box" setup that is less than $150 including sales tax. Probably better once I get a new pair of glasses, everything has been looking a little blurry lately.
