    Default New Plinker

    So i was looking around for a nice accurate .22 for some serious plinking...
    i already have a walther p22 but wanted a bit more size/accuracy.
    started by looking at a kimber rimfire .22 but seems as though the reviews were not so favorable... and it was really 'spensive!
    so i was looking around at sportsmans and decided to pick up this little number:

    browning buckmark camper stainless


    so it was between this, a ruger mark 3, and the beretta neos; this one felt the best in my hand and i like the look. the rubber molded grips, fiber optic site, and stainless finish helped too!
    i also have kicked around the idea of getting a scope for it since it was far less than half what i would have paid for the kimber, but we'll see.
    unfortunatly i havent got to shoot it yet but looking forward to slaying many apples/cans/charcoal bricks very soon!

    I bought that exact pistol not too long ago! They are very reliable and very accurate. Question, did the little wrench that came with it work to unscrew the screw under the barrel? Did NOT fit for me, only worked to unscrew the rear sight screw. Very upset, cannot dissasemble it without it. I still give it a good cleaning regardless but would like to clean it.

    Nice, I assume next time you are up you'll bring it along to shoot? If you wring it out before you'll have to let me know how it shoots.
