well guys i followed your suggestions and bought a 22lr, its a marlin model 60 it was only 100 and for that price it is a heck of a shooter, here are my targets from yesterday, just practicing the basic aspects of rifle shooting like trigger control, breathing and such..the other hits on the paper was my AR15 i was not really concentrating when i shot my ar i just want to shoot it..here are the pics...

all the shots in the orange is from the marlin at 25yds the other is from my ar at 25yds too..

Nice rifle, I've got the same one for my daughters to use. They love it.

Noting like a good ole basic .22 rifle for a day of plinking. Great choice.

I got a model 60 at the pawn shop about a year ago. Great little rifle. When my shoulder gets tired of the mule kicks of the Mosin Nagants, it's fun to switch over and finish the day.

I don't care what, you can't beat a good lil .22 rifle for cost of ammo, ease of shooting, and just plain fun for the family.

If you use a good rest and steady shooting bench with an ok scope mine will print 3 or 4 holes touching 5 shot groups at 25YDS.

Good choice on the Glenfield 60...same thing as the marlin 60's, of which I have two.

Both of which will shoot better than 1" at 50yds with wolf MT. The model 60's seem to be the best shooting (stock, out of the box) semi-auto rimfires for the price.

I have a Glenfield that my Father purchased in the late 70's early 80's. It is a rock solid gun that has served him and me well. My children (ages 10-8 months) currently shoot a Henry .22 lever gun, but once they prove their gun safety and handling skills, I will introduce them the the semi-auto rifle.
