    @mudgripz There are a lot "better" .22s out there than the MkII but I just wanted a cheap plinker for rabbits and spotlighting. I hardly ever shoot a rabbit beyond about 50m as I'm usually going for headshots so as not to ruin the meat. And to be honest; I've always been a "good reliable tool" sorta person rather than someone who wants anything too flash. I'd probably cry if I had a lovely walnut stocked rimfire and scratched on a bit of number 8 wire when spotlighting! And being a clumsy bugger; it's what I'd do!

    I'm happy with an entry level 22 as long as it does the job And with a busted ankle and in plaster for another 2-weeks (and the docs said no deer hunting for abut 6-months on it ) ; rabbits are going to be about it for a while!
