What, the same plastic polymer that the Glock (one of the most dependable handguns made) is made out of?

I would agree with a few of the other members, check out a .17hmr, they are amazingly accurate!

I would, without a doubt, have gotten the Ruger as well. If you want a lever, its worth it IMO to save up till a Browning can be obtained. I would never buy another Henry.

Default What about a CZ?

I have yet to see any votes for the CZ 512... probably shoots dimes all day...

X2.....
I had several .22's and then I cleaned out the safe. I opted for one rim fire in in a CZ 455, .22LR and one in a CZ (V) 542 .17 HMR.

I will say this; I love the deadly .17 HMR but the .22 is so cheap to shoot.

No more decisions as they both come with me. Oh, and both shoot under a dime at 90 yards.

Good luck,

One other thing if I were to do it ll over; both CZ's would have thumb-hole stocks. I like the way you "lock-up" with them..... IMHO.
