Many things make the Kel-Tec SU-22 cool. First and foremost the weight: this little Tactical .22 only weighs 4 lbs! You will be amazed at the Philosophies of Use that this lightweight will open for you: recreational, tactical training, backpacking, or even survival rifle uses are all appropriate. Moreover the light weight makes shooting and carrying the SU-22 for the female or young shooter more enjoyable. It is a “Tactical .22″ as I have been calling them for some time. It mimicks the centerfire Kel-Tec SU-16 series of rifles (reviewed, rec’d by me at www.youtube.com ) and many of its components are directly interchangeable. Of course you won’t get the recoil, range, ToF, and noise of a the .223 SUs, but the ergonomics and battery of arms are similar. Another big SU-22 attraction is price: about 0 lower than many other tactical .22s. Remember in this category, threaded muzzles, Picatinny rails, polymer furniture, larger capacity magazines, sling attachments, etc are found and they often add cost. But the SU-22 provides most of those features for less. Reliability is good when the gun is kept clean. In my extended firing (without cleaning) that the SU-22 would experience failures to go into battery when dirty (no matter the ammo). When kept clean with appropriate lubrication, the little SU-22 cranked along with few jams, even with affordable bulk Federal .22 ammo (Remington Golden .22 is garbage and choked repeatedly in the tests…not recommended). Kel-Tec wisely uses …
So I got a new Remington M887 NitroMag Shotgun last November & felt like taking it out for shooting some clays… The night before I met a bunch of friends for coffee and we just decided to all get our guns together, take them out to a safe spot for some practice - and great memories too. I had the new shotgun for most of the trip… but, of course, brought out my Ruger 10/22 stainless “tacti-cool” project gun. My cousin had his custom .308 Winchester (customized before he got it with a heavy stock, Mauser bolt/receiver, muzzle break, etc.) that he finally got to shoot here. There’s an AR-15 in .223, my Dad with his pump-action .22LR (don’t remember the brand…), a French-made 20-gauge my buddy Wayne brought out, Don’s Remington 1100 12-gauge, and a short-barreled .450 (carbine I think… but will check that) as well… We also had a couple of semi-automatic pistols as well in the middle there for quite a variety. It has been too long since I shot clays and the “Wal-Mart” launcher proved excellent for one clay at a time (not two though…). Once I re-learned how to lead them enough, the Remington M887 proved to be smooth (brand new!), accurate, and I love that ArmorLokt coating. Overall a great, though randomly windy, day! (We were in Wyoming after all, so go figure on the wind…)
Hope this Video answers some questions my good friend 155millimeter has on these 2 calibers. Which do i prefer the .22LR or The Amazing. 17HMR. I answer many questions and hopefully will help you guys along the way. The rifles featured in this video are a SAVAGE 93R .17HMR and a RUGER SR22lr. The ruger has a simple red dot scope on it not a real scope like on the savage but it still can get a pretty good group going
The diminutive Walther P22 .22 pistol is a fun plinker and I consider it a good choice as a recreational pistol. Shooters with small hands will appreciate its ergonomics, easily accessed controls, ease of loading (both mags and slide racking), and smaller grip. Other upsides include tactical looks, more blast and recoil for a .22 makes it funner, versatile configurations (can swap out barrels easily), and light rail. But make sure you are realistic about the gun’s capabilities. While some …
A wicked barrel mod by Nutnfancy. Shown is a legal, non-SBR (short barreled rifle) mod to my TAPCO RNG 10/22. Blind pinned and welded on, the excellent Phantom 5C2 flash suppressor makes a sick addition to the DuraCoated gun. Barrel is now stubby 16 inches, on par with the factory 10/22 Compact (shown in comparison). Also added is a Power Custom extended bolt handle to improve ergonomics and speed. These mods make the gun cooler, shorter, lighter, and even faster in action than before….
Don’t waste your ammo, invest it. The way to do that is doing a Nutnfancy-type “RunNGun” with your friends and family. While benchrest, tin can shooting , and paper punching have their place and are fun, these days I’m a fan of our heart pumping, competitive RunNGuns. With the right folks in attendance, these course are a blast to shoot and provide stress-oriented training that can transfer to other weapon platforms. TNP RunNGun courses are generally 100 yards in length with various stages …
Part 1 of 2: Every shooter in the US should own a Ruger 10/22 (and I wish my overseas viewers could too!). It is the everyman’s, all-around .22 rifle. It shocks me when I find one that doesn’t! That’s because it provides immense enjoyment and capabilities for such a low cost. Even out-of-box, the venerable 10/22 is accurate, very reliable, tough, ergonomic, lightweight, easy to use and carry, and most of all, fun! It continues to be an extremely successful Ruger design, having sold well over …
