Nice review, thank you. These days I buy just about any brand I can find that's not crazy expensive. I haven't shot .22's very much the past 10 years or so because I could always reload centerfire ammo for less. However, now that components are ridiculously priced that is no longer the case. We recently dusted off our old rimfire firearms and are starting to use them. Oh, and I LOL at the Chipmunk sounding sped up parts, kinda cool...
