    I always recommend a single six to people curious about getting into plinking. If you can sit all day a plink with something like a heritage rough rider then you will have an even better time with a semi auto. I like steering the towards a rough rider or ruger wrangler. They taught me that patience equals fun. Having only six slow shots made me concentrate on making each shot count.

    back in 9th grade or so, i went to a boarding school far from home. i used to spend weekends with friends sometimes, and we had access to guns. on one of our outings, we had a 30.06 and a 22 rifle. his mom dropped us off in the mountains with plans to walk down to his reservation. there was no big game in sight, so when we got hungry we blasted some robins. we plucked them, roasted them on some spits we made and it's true what they say about food tasting good when you are hungry. it tasted gamey, like venison. when you mentioned your dad giving you hunting instructions i was reminded of that. my dad was in vietnam, and also earned an expert badge. i did not know that was the highest honor when i was a kid, but learned later on. funny because he ended up being a radioman for an artillery unit.

  • @boomzilla86
    @boomzilla86 8 лет назад +92

    i love the 22 caliber bullet. i hate how disrespected it is. even the word "plinking" is almost always used when talking about the 22. its used in a "i dont take this round seriously and only consider it for fun and games." i looked around to find any other caliber that people say is "good for plinking" and found none. not even for the 380. i hear people say really stupid shit about the 22 like "it will sting, but not kill" or "has no stopping power". that shit is so ridiculous. lots of people have been killed with 22lr. and not because you had a perfect shot or put 50 rounds in them. it only takes a couple. you take 1 to the chest, youre gonna die just as dead as with any other bullet.
    if you dont respect the 22 as a lethal round and any gun its fired from as a deadly weapon, then you just dont respect guns period.

    • @TheWiseCop
      @TheWiseCop 7 лет назад +6

      Exactly! Also, I once met a bloke at a gun shop saying the .380 is a plinking calibre as well. The guy didn't know much on the topic the more we talked about guns. It seemed he was just plain stupid.

      I have never considered the .22 to be disrespected. Quite the opposite. Some of the most expensive and most precision guns I own are .22s. I do not consider them an effective defensive cartridge.

    @bassbug3 6 лет назад +1

    Plinkster, as a teenager, I was very much like you, albeit some 60 years ago. I was a .22 rifle shooter, an old Remington Mdl 24, bought by my grandfather and at that time, my father's rifle, which I took over at 10 years of age. I wore it out, more or less, and saved my money and got a Win. Mdl 62 at 14, and then my Browning ATD a few years later. If it stood still, moved or flew, it was fair game or target.
    But I am a bit older now and have become more of a pistol shooter in my old(er) age. In watching your program today, I believe you only left out one pistol that if you don't have, you need to shoot to appreciate. And that would be one of FNH's Browning patent Medalist-Challenger-Nomads. These pistols were from the wizardry of designing pistols of John M. Browning, who is in a way, also responsible for the Colt Woodsman, which he designed and sold the patent to Colt.
    The Medalist is one of the finest, if not the finest pistol ever designed. I was fortunate enough several years ago to buy one to go with my medley of pistols similar to the ones mentioned in your show today. I am sure you have probably shot one, or may even own one or two. My Challenger II is probably my second most favorite pistol, and then my High Standard 103. And you really need to get a Bearcat to to go along with your Single Six. Your vids should be required watching by every young person.

    • @nickdipaolofan5948

  • @edvigluicci8113
    @edvigluicci8113 8 лет назад +5

    Good advice. As an NRA Basic Pistol Insstructor, my consistent advice to students is to pick up a .22 pistol and learn the proper mechanics of pistol shooting. I love picking up my Ruger Single Six or Browning 1911-22 and working on technique while having fun. At 8-10 cents per round, you don't have to feel as though you are depleting your bank account, and there is a wide range of .22 pistols to play with. Thanks for sharing your experience!

      @grizzlygrizzle 3 года назад

      -- Just getting into this, but I have learned other skills, and I believe that your advice about taking your time to do it right is the best way to learn. Speed will come later, almost automatically. Almost-- one can also get into some bad habits of slowness, but if one is motivated, it's easier to learn how to do something with precision first, and then focus on doing it a little faster. There's an equivalent of the spray-and-pray approach in the construction business, and the results are rarely pretty. I think impatience is a more universal motivator than precision, and that in most cases, getting the precision thing down first will flow easily into impatience, but the reverse is less reliable. In construction, I have seen very few guys who went from fast-and-sloppy to fast-and precise, but lots of guys who went from slow-and-precise to fast-and-precise.

    These are just a very good gun if you are on a budget or not.

    My dad had the same "one shot - one kill" rule. No wasting ammo. When we would go hunting he would give us 25 shells each. When we returned from the hunt he would give us one new shell for each kill. When we wasted enough shots that we didn't have any more ammo we would have to earn a new box by doing extra chores. Enjoy your videos. I recently picked up an SR22. I really like it. I've put about 500 rounds thru it with no FTE or FTF. So far it eats everything I feed it.

I was happy with my two .22 handguns and then I found a lightly used Stoeger Luger. Not very accurate, but fun to shoot. Took it out once and then went back to larger calibers. Never was a very good shooter, but as long as I can place my 9/40/45 cal rounds in a 8 " target at 50', I am happy

I disassembled it, and cleaned the rust off with steel wool and WD40. It was a little tricky putting it back together, but, there are diagrams of the inner workings on the net. It shoots beautifully. Outside of my Ruger service six, .357, it is my favorite pistol. Enjoy!

    I have a Ruger Mark II, like it a lot, it is much more accurate than I am, and the one my friend has with a bull barrel is simply awesome. As I get older I go shooting much less and have a harder time remembering how to reassemble it after cleaning. The latter models have a much, much better take down and reassembly system, I would strongly recommend one of those instead.

    I was in the market for a Ruger Mark 4 pistol for a while. During that search for “the right one”, I ran across a Smith & Wesson model 22S. It was heavy and bulky, but when I realized it was made right here in Maine, I had to buy it. It was well used and still dirty from use. I am glad I bought it. It is a tack driver with a red dot sight. I also have a Ruger SR22 and love that one too. Light and feels great in my hand.

      @@showcasecharlie11 the guy in this video looks like he is in his 30's. Several of his guns are valued at over $1,000. He probably has well over 100 guns. Most average guns are in the $300 to $600 range. So lets just be conservative and say he has $25k to $40k in guns in his 30's.
      Now, that is what a new car costs, so it is not impossible, I am just wondering how he and so many others are spending this much on their hobby. I'm not hating, just curious what they are neglecting to afford them.

      @@showcasecharlie11 so how much would you say you have spent in guns over all? If you have $40k in guns and you are around 35 years old. Lets assume you started making money at 20 ish when you got out of college. So $40K divided by 15 years means that you are spending over $2,600 a year on average. This does not even address ammunition costs, range fees, accessories, storage, cleaning supplies, etc. Unless you are making over $100k a year, that is a significant chunk of your annual budget.
      I'm making close to $70k a year and I cant justify spending that much on my hobby (as much as I would LOVE to).
      Do you guys just let your kids go without braces and sports gear? hahaha just kidding on the last part.

But the answer is Ruger SR-22, very reliable, accurate & fun to shoot & cheap to shoot...eats all the bulk ammo you can put through it. I don't even bother cleaning it till I have about 500 rounds through it!

    I have tried several revovers and pistols in .22lr, but wasnt that good with it, mainly because I have big hands, and then there was the buckmark and that one fitted nice in my big hands en the groups improved dramaticly, so while others shoot great with different brands it didnt work when I shot them because of different size hands.

  • @Skinflaps_Meatslapper

    My favorite .22LR pistols....FWB AW93, Pardini HP, Hammerli SP20, Hammerli 208/210, Hammerli 162, TOZ-35, and a High Standard Victor 10X Bob Shea.
    Out of those, it's a tossup between the AW93 and the SP20, and the 208 vs. the TOZ-35.
    I just can't appreciate a Ruger anything pistol past a cheap way to make a repeatable bang sound when the trigger is pulled, or a very quiet sound in the case of a suppressed Ruger.
    Yes, I've owned them, and I've sold them all.
    They were traded in one the pistols listed above.
    I've shot the Browning Buckmark and the Colt Woodsman, along with numerous other entry level .22LR pistols when, you guessed it, I was getting into target shooting.
    Even the cheap High Standards are the same.
    They are what they are, but they are NOT target pistols.
    They're plinking guns.
    I'll reconsider that position when I see them punching paper at ISSF competitions, as I'm always looking for an edge regardless...but I'm confident that'll never happen.

    Thank god, a man who specializes in 22, now as a lad growing up in New Zealand at the time it was a cash strapped country due to poor political direction, I grew up in country, we had wonderful dark soil but meat was hard to come by, it was nothing for my dad to wake me at 5 am I had a 22 rifle & he had a 4-10 shotgun & this is how we put meat on the table. my dad was a policeman so god help you if you handled the weapon wrong & he told me that one shot does the trick if you shoot right, don't waste ammo & make sure you clean kill that animal each time no suffering ( he was a dog handler ) so I hope you can shear my points on 22 , yes it will kill almost anything if used correctly, but here is my question, in terms of high impact kill there seem to be a move away form 22 hornets or magnums, why is this so or is it just me.. it has been a lot of years since I went hunting but there is not much mention of the type of ammo anymore, ?????
