Not sure what a CC&R is but I don't have one or an FFL.

Sorry - I meant "C&R" (I guess I stuttered on that C) - it means "Curios & Relics". It is a specific category of firearms that is for old guns (usually over 50 years old). There is a special FFL (called a type 03) you can get that applies only to C&R guns, and it is much easier to get than a regular gun dealer FFL. Having it allows you to buy guns classified as C&R without having to go through a gun shop - you can even buy mail order and have them shipped to your home!

I don't have one - but I always wanted one...

Glad to help Dan.

I made an error in price for Diamondback I mentioned. They are about 350 bucks. However, Vortex does have the Crossfire II and Copperhead lines also. I have no experience with these but they start at about 170 best I can tell depending on model. I am sure they have good quality for price if they are like the other Vortex lines like the Diamondback, Viper and Razor lines.

I know you are not doing competition shooting but regardless nice to have a dependable scope to match a good firearm. Fun when the only variable on shanking a shot is the shooter not the setup. Still recommend the Diamondback or higher line of Vortex was if you are willing to drop the cash on it.

The Ruger bolt rifles seem pretty nice. Don’t own one but a guy at the range had a Ruger 700 in .308 that shot pretty good. Same concept and design as the .22 you are contemplating. One note may be that you may wish to check if smaller capacity magazines are available if you are bench shooting. Depends on your setup but a high capacity mag on the bench can hinder your elevation and tight hold. Again, all depends on you setup. For example, when I shoot an AR10 pr AR15 at the range, I use 10 round and 20 round magazines respectively. Instead of 20 and 30 round magazines respectively.
Why? Because in my bench setup the longer magazines hit the bench and interfere with my hold.

Food for thought. Good luck. Let us know what you pickup and how it works out.

Regards, Jerry

A couple of those passed through our home when my Dad was gun trading.

Does that one have a depiction of a sable on the side anywhere? I cannot remember wheter they were sitting, lying or running, but I definitely recall them having an animal on them.
