Long story short, I loaded up some mags around March of 2020. Approximately 12 factory, 10 round, ruger mini-14 mags.
I decided to got out and sight in a rifle. The mags still feed ok, but about 8-9 lacked the spring power to actuate the bolt hold open.
I opened them up, and yes, the spring...
Do you any of you have any reason why a henry .22 would be a bad buy? Reliable? Reasonably accurate? Fun?
I already have 3 semi auto .22s and an old bolt .22. I have alot of. 22 lr. Some of it even starting to get a bit old. I thought this would be a fun way of training for my big lever guns...

Well happy 4th everyone.
I spent the day with an ar and a mini-14.
I took my Weaver vx3 1-3 off of the mini becuse yes...I had never shot them.
I set out with 55 grain Hornaday Frontier, Federal 5.56, and Winchester white box 5.56.
The irons were perfect. About 2" at 50 yards in...
I have this issue with a particular upper.
Specs:
Wilson 18" 1:8 zero taper heavy barrel
Yhm free float quad
Running h2 buffer
Larue trigger
Swfa 12x (currently)
Adm mount
Usually shooting off of a harris bipod and a yhm picitinny adapter
I have twice zeroed two different sets of irons...
I couldn't do it...
One of my local gun shops wanted $24/ box for Federal 180 grain soft point .308. I'm used to paying less for Gold Medal Match at Cabelas. Usually this stuff is $15-$19.99.
You can't tell me that people are buying that for self defense...
I went ahead and bought some 5.56...
My local range finally opened. I decided I would take and zero one rifle.

So, I have not been able to make it to the range in awhile. Weather here has been cold, wet, and muddy. I've also been conservative on ammo.
So, I thought I'd do some pretend magazine changes in the air from memory...you know, on the ar15s and minis I used to own before the boating accident...
Okay gents...
I have a 20" upper which is beautifully light weight with a nice fluted barrel and all that jazz. Shoots like a dream with irons, but I always feel an optic unlocks all the true potential. This optic will go in a Larue qd mount.
So, that being said I am at a loss.
I have an 18...
So I know I posted that I bought a Kansbol for my girlfriend for her birthday. Seeing it reminded me that I got one awhile back with an Eldris for myself.

I'm thinking of a nice, walnut bolt gun.
Something pretty but tough.
I have already pretty much settled on a .308. I've already got a long range rifle in .308. I do already also have a .243 and 6.5 as well, but I want a truly big game gun. Probably will top it with a vx3.
