  1. Rifle, Shotgun and Handgun Scopes
    I have been enjoying 22 bullseye for the past few weeks. I plan to continue in my he future. However, I’m at a disadvantage using open sights when most shooters have red dots. move narrowed down my choices of dots to the following. Trijicon MRO 1x25, 2 moa dot. Ultradot HD micro. I looked...
  2. Rimfire Rifles
    Hey there, I recently bought a CZ 453 Premium (.22) and forgot to ask for a few extra magazines as it only comes with a standard 5 round one. So now I was browsing for magazines and found a few but I do not know which one to pick: 17 HMR or 22 WMR? Whats the difference? Need some help...
  3. Rimfire Rifles
    Hello everyone (newbie here), I recently made the decision to purchase my first firearm and after some research decided to start with a .22 rifle. Over the past weekend I went to a gun show here in Colorado to find a used rifle in good condition in my price range - nothing fancy, just something...
  4. Rimfire Rifles
    I'm hoping I've found a place that might be able to help me. I have a Winchester Model 74 .22 LR, Serial 243XXXX, manufactured in 1949. It is in reasonably good condition. (I'll attach pics.) My grandfather used it to shoot starlings away from his martin houses (birds, for anyone not...
  5. Gunsmithing
    Hello everyone i have what seems like a common question but no definite answers to it. I have 2 .22s im wanting to put flash hiders on (for looks) and cant find any info on threading them. I live in the middle of know where with no machine shops near me. Both barrels are measured at .640 inch...
  6. Gunsmithing
    Hello, I have a model 270 Winchester .22 cal pump and it fails to eject fired rounds. I have replaced the firing pin, firing spring and ejector and still no luck. I have to turn it sideways and tap just to get them to come out. I've cleaned the crud out of it but not sure what else to do so any...
  7. Wildcat Cartridges
    Hello Recently I came up with several wildcat cartridge ideas, which I posted on Varminter.com forum. Not to repeat the same posts here I'll put the links so you can take a look at these concepts. Wildcat - 6mm-17WSM - The Rimfire Forum - The Varminter Forums Wildcat - .22-17WSM - The...
  8. Gunsmithing
    Hey there, I have a misfire problem with my Savage MKII-F .22lr and was wondering whether anybody has had any issues or knows a solution. Ive had the rifle (.22LR MKII-F) for atleast 6 months and it hasnt had alot of use, mostly because it misfires to the point where i would feel quite safe...
  9. Rimfire Rifles
    I've owned my Savage 64 for a few years now. I feel its pretty good for a low end .22lr. When I bought it I wanted an inexpensive and lightweight .22lr rifle that my wife would like to shoot as well, since she complained about the weight of my other rifles after a long day of shooting. Now...
  10. Gunsmithing
    Win Model 250, lever action 22, bolt assembly. Where do the two very small ball bearings (plungers) go in the bolt? I had my gun worked on several years ago and finally got around to firing it. It misfired alot. I disassembled the bolt and the two plungers were missing. I got replacement...
  11. Rimfire Rifles
    I Just read an article in petersons February issue about the upcoming new cartridge. A 20 grain bullet at 3,000 fps out of a rimfire sounds pretty sweet. Savage is making a rifle for this caliber with some centerfire features like rear locking lugs .Maybe a new semi close coyote gun for me...
  12. Cartridge Collecting
    I found this cartridge lying on the ground at the shooting range I go to. The only thing I can think of is that it is a 5mm Remington Magnum. It seems to be made by Aquila since it has the letter "A" on the bottom of it. It is also bottle-necked like the 17 HMR, but it is a tad shorter and...
  13. Rimfire Handguns
    I recently acquired one of these unique revolvers and it is a lot of fun to shoot. 22lr and 22 magnum cylinders, single or double action...with a12" barrel...the rear sight is adjustable and makes for a very accurate shooter. One would never guess the aga of this piece based on its' condition...
