I haven't owned a Ruger 10/22 in over two decades. I sold the last one to pay a bill early in my marriage and I never replaced it. I preferred lever action .22s and I now have an Uberti Silver Boy that I planned on bringing to an Idaho jackrabbit hunt next month.
Then Washington state passed the idiotic and ridiculous Initiative 1639 that goes into effect January 1st.
It basically makes all semi-auto rifles "assault rifles" and adds a few restrictions such as ten day waiting period, approval by local police chief, must have attended a firearms safety course in last 5 years, $25 fee on each gun, etc. It's awful.
My bonus from work was a little bigger this year so I decided I needed another 10/22.
Bought the Copper-Mica edition since it was on sale for $219 and I liked the stock style...

I also ordered the Ruger BX-25 magazine for it. It also came with a cheap scope and rings as part of the Black Friday deal.
I have a limited number of CCI rounds, 600 of the Mini-Mags, a couple bricks of cheap Winchester Super-X.
Would like to pick up a couple of more bricks of decent hollow point .22s.
What's good these days? What works best in the 10/22?
