Re: 22 is my favorite caliber
OK, that didn't take much research .. .. from Wikipedia : "The .32-20 Winchester, also known as .32 WCF (Winchester center fire), was the first small-game lever-action cartridge that Winchester produced." .... it has a rich, interesting history .... from looking at the ballistics, if I was in the market for a 32, I think I'd go with a Henry 327 .... thanks again for introducing me to the 32-20

Sure hard to beat in the fun department,Henry88 wrote:Yes I stole dddrees' subject, cause I had intended to do the same thread, but about rifles. Rimfire rifles.
So I shamelessly stole his title because I feel the EXACT same way about rifles. I may have some that mean more to me, for whatever reason, but when it just comes down to shooting, and especially having fun, it's impossible to beat the .22.
I'm not evens sure it matters be it a lever, bolt, or auto. They all rock IMHO
did a little back yard plinking this afternoon.
Like you said, lever, bolt and semi.
Nothing to report other than fun was had.
Shot some left handed, did well with the scoped Marlin 25N. Not as well on the open sights, shooting is around 40 yds.
All and all not bad
will say that the trigger on the Henry is way smoother than the Marlins RP

Re: 22 is my favorite caliber
Rimfire is my favorite whether it be 22 or 17. And I'm even counting .22WMR. I include them all because in some cases parts for them are interchangeable. Rimfire has been my favorite for about ten years but I've shot more centerfire in my life.

Re: 22 is my favorite caliber
A favorite caliber for sure. I have had this rifle “Winchester Model 62A” since 1955 when I was in Alaska. I don’ know how many rounds that I have shot , but a lot. Still one of the favorites.

Re: 22 is my favorite caliber
I have 22 rifles that are bolt, lever and semi-auto as well as handguns that are revolvers and semi-autos. My favorite rifle is one that is ignored and rare. I have a Mossberg Blaze 47 that looks like an AK47 and it will shoot 25 rounds as fast as you can pull the trigger. It is a lot of fun because it has a polymer receiver that makes the entire gun weight just over 4 pounds, is accurate, easy to aim and shoot the 25 round mag can be switched in seconds. Since Mossberg got started with 22 caliber rifles and the Remington Nylon 66 "plastic" gun was reliable for many decades, I decided to give it a try. I would buy it again.
