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

Cheers all, I bought the Voere from Alan and will take that out to the range as soon as I have it. Glad to hear it's a great option, and much nicer to buy on the forum than from a shop.

@Bradp I get your point, getting familiar with my CF rifle is important too but I want to get the practice on a cheaper rifle first. Also, already bought it, so c'est la vie.

of course we will want to see the groups it shoots please well done I am sure you will not be disappointed

I think you are on the right track! When I was in your situation, a 500rnd brick of 22 ammo cost $25-$30, and I went through one every month and a half. Shooting, shooting, shooting.
Start at 25 yards and just draw a fingernail size dot on your target. Shoot until you can destroy that dot. Shoot rabbits, hares, possums. As many as you can.

IM 3 hours south of you. If you have any issues, and want someone to run things over with you, then give me a yell if no one closer can help.
