We have both the 22LR Pump and the SGC and they are both awesome plinkers. We have both of them set up with Skinner rear peeps and Lyman front Globes. If I had to choose only one it would be the SGC - already comes with the Skinner rear peep and it is just a handy little rifle with that 16.25" barrel. It is always a favorite at our home-made 25 yd range - especially with new shooters....

Which Lyman globe sight did you get? I am interested in one for my SGC and would like to put Skinner peep and globe on my pump too.
Thanks
Ernie

Ernie - we put a .495" 17A Lyman Globe on our SGC. It sights in at 25 yds using CCI standard 22LR with the rear peep about 1 1/2 turns off of the full bottom position. Our pump also has a .495" 17A Lyman Globe on the front and a Skinner Rimfire Groove peep sight on the rear.

Thanks for that information. I do like the skinner sight on the SGC and the globe front sight looks like a good addition as well.

We have the SGC in .22 and the mag version. Both great shooters and handy to carry in the field. The .22 LR see more use because the ammo is cheaper.
