Thread: .22lr budget - will I regret buying cheap?

Just to mention 22lr can be real picky on ammo. Some of todays ammo is rubbish.
CCI standard is a good one to start with, then the prices ramp up with somewhat varing results, all the way $35 for 50.
Finding what a rifle likes can be expensive, so buying second hand & being told what they found good is gold, same as buying a CF rifle off a reloader, who's developed a recipe.
Also buying a cheap rifle has it merits, play aroud with it beading it, improve the trigger at own risk. Great place to start learning about how to improve a rifles accuracy, plenty of advise on this forum, just have to ask, avoid the traps us old buggers have fallen down.
