As of lately I've acquired a Umarex MP5 SD 22lr and this thing is a fun gun to shoot. It's accurate and eats anything you can feed it. It's kinda heavy for a 22lr but that weight keeps it from moving around much a follow-up shots are quick and easy. 25 round mags of 22lr make for a good time.
Favorite rifle?

I put a scope on my 22, sighted in pretty good at 25yrd, Could put about 10 rounds of 25 in the center with about a 5" pattern. If I could keep my arm still i think I could do way better! I'm sure it's because I am to old!! LOL

My custom build 12.5” 6.8 SPC II. Wilson lower, BCM upper and rail, ARP 12.5” barrel, Dead Air Sandman can, Cryptic Coatings BCG, JPE Silent capture buffer system and Trijicon Credo 3-9x40. Puts a wallop on deer and hogs out to about 300 yards, light weight and compact. Great little gun
There is just something very special about a bolt action rifle chambered in a solid cartridge, and especially a long-action cartridge. One from the .30-06 family of cartridges.
Just enough recoil to let you know it doesn't F around. That certain sound of the empty long-action case ejecting. Chambering the next. Closing the bolt.
That'll make a Rifleman smile.
God Bless America.

I’m a fan of my bergara ridge in .270 … smooth long action.
I have an old Remington model 581 I picked up from a member here for “my kids”. I never would have imagined I’d have so much fun with a single shot bolt action 22. I shot it every chance I get now and regret telling my boys I bought it for them lol!
Fine work, Tony!
Long Live the Long Action!

Mine is my Browning BAR in .308. About 50 years old, and made in Belgium. I got it when I was 18, and refinished the wood. I originally put a Tasco Big Horn scope on it, and took many deer with it. I eventually replaced the scope with a Vortex Viper and gave it to my son. He took his first deer with it.

My favorite rifle as a boy was my dad's Marlin model 39 .22 medallion. It had adjustable open sights and was extremely accurate. I learned to shoot with this gun. Holding steady to shoot squirrels in tall trees made me patient, and I definitely learned to squeeze the trigger. Any jerk caused me to miss. It's not my favorite rifle, but it is the one rifle I will never part with.
