Nef/h&r single shot .22's.

Anybody have one of these?
I've been looking for one for a while.
I passed one up a while ago because I thought it was marked so high($179) and have been regretting it since. Lol

How do they shoot? Any issues? Info on them is scant.

My local gunshop has the Rossi break action 22/410 combo from time to time. I like the little youth version. A bit pricey I thought for a combo I don't want. I want a 22/357 maximum or magnum or 44 magnum. But hey, a 410 can use brass cases made from 303 Brit cases and I bet a smooth bore slug can shoot quite well. They had one in 222 once (no combo). Wish I'd taken it. To me a break action 22 is the bees knees.

Hmmm, I didn't think about the brass .410 3 rb loads.

I bought one from a guy on another forum several years ago in .22 Mag. It's still sitting in my safe, waiting for me to get a roundtuit. I bought it mostly out of curiosity because I'd never owned a .22 Mag before. Obviously, I wasn't all that curious!

My wife has a youth model in 22/410. The 22 is on it 99% of the time. It has a spot carvered out by the back sliding door. It gets used for everything from starlings to nuisance squirrels. The garden digging chipmunks are the favorite. Agila super colibri, or CCI cb longs are the preferred back door load. It's topped with a 2x shotgun scope and works quite well, with a great trigger.

Nephew has one. It had a nylon rear sight that seemed pretty fragile to me.

[HBAR2989]

The rear sight is plastic. That's why it wears the shot gun scope, plus the eyes are pushing mid to late 50's.

[troy_mclure]

yea, i plan on scoping it as well when i find one.

I've got one: NEF Sportster SS1. It is an interesting little piece. I got it for teaching kids, and I've got roughly 1,200 rounds through it.

Trigger pull was reasonably crisp out of the box, though I've no idea of the weight as it goes past the limits of my scale. Off sand bags, accuracy is minute of pop-can at contact distances but falls off rapidly. It is my impression that the sights bear little relationship to POI, but it is hard to tell. I've tried every ammo I can find in it, from cheap promo packs to Eley Tenex, and it seems to hate them all equally.

On the bright side. . . I paid $50 for a Marlin .22 bolt repeater, plugged the magazine tube so it doesn't "repeat," and have a perfectly satisfactory instructional tool that does well with whatever I feed it.
