Ya lost at Ron Spomer.
I dont like they guy, he's a hack.

I was intrigued by the WSM when it arrived but it lost itself somewhere. It's a good cartridge but so is the HMR and the WMR. but then again the 17Mach 2 was good also.

I found my Ruger American .22 Magnum to be very accurate. I am not a good rifleman, but it makes me look good.

I bought a basic Henry 22 a couple of years ago, the black & walnut 94 Winchester-ish one based on the old Erma 22 lever action. I managed to get one made after they changed to a ramp front sight, attached directly to the barrel with a screw. I wasn't expecting much but it's turned out to one of the best shooting 22s we've had here. Best news is that it loves CCI 22 CB Shorts and groups real well with them out to 40 paces. It holds 21 of them.

We get overrun with nuisance animals, every spring through garden season and that little Henry has killed more critters than highway traffic. One of those CB shorts, well placed, has settled everything including big groundhogs and coons. On the rare occasions a second one was needed, it was because my first shot was hurried.

Jim I looked real had at one of those Ruger 22 mags, but found a one-day sale on Anderson ARs for $400 shipped. But everybody I know with a Ruger American, in any caliber, really likes them.
