Singing Praises...

The topic of today's sermon is the lowly .22 Long Rifle rimfire round, and the guns chambered therein.

Can I get an amen?

Forsooth, when thou doth needeth a cheap training gun, doth thou not turn to the .22 conversion kit?

Can I get an amen?

When thou wisheth to obtain trigger time on thine AR-15, doth thou not put on thy .22 upper and spare thine wallet?

Can I get an amen?

Rather than loading the costly .38 Special into thine model 10, thou wouldst rather loadeth thy model 17, verily?

Can I get an amen?

Tin cans tremble before your lever action Henry. Orange clays shake with fear on the berm in anticipation of breakage from the Winchester 1890.

Can I get an amen?

Let us not spaketh ill of the rimfire. Let us cast out terms such as "underpowered", for they knoweth not of which they spake.

Appreciate it for what it is, do not curse it for what it is not.

That is all.

Inspiring!

I suddenly feel the need for a .22 pistol with which to expend hundreds of rounds of rimfire ammunition with in an inexpensive manner.

Today would be a good day for that (g).

This may be heresy, but a decent replica Airsoft gun will give you some of the same.

Sure it's not the same, but it's even cheaper than .22, and you can do it in your basement.

Ted, how's the accuracy of a typical airsoft?

Shout it to the Heavens, Brother Jay!

Lord knows, my rimfires are getting a regular workout lately...
