    I've had my 15-22 for some time now. Fun to shoot and pretty accurate enough for CMP rimfire sporter matches. CCI standard velocity is your friend. Some are prone to firing out-of-battery - mine did. Blew out the extractor, spring and plunger. Sent it off to S&W for inspection and repair and I haven't had a problem since, but I keep spare extractor parts just in case. For that very reason they were prohibited at Appleseed shoots but I don't know if that is still true today. Still glad I own it though. It's my dedicated squirrel, varmint and occasional steel challenge match rifle.

    I've had mine a few years now, the grandkids love to shoot something that looks like what the adults shoot without the noise and recoil, lots of fun.

    Need to refine your video technique there Mr Wolfdog. Get a little more professional, bad form to drop your weapon. Interesting video. Off of a tripod at 25 yds I would think the 15-22 would have shot better groups. Keep them coming.

    Shoots much better now that I've worked her over . Not the best tripod shooter what so ever and this little gun does require I tiny bit of finesse. Still learning her but it shoots much better then in the video. Paint job for the GF ,new rings, know off harries , new trigger springs,and about 500rd so far

    I love mine, put a CMORE Railway on it. I added JP springs (use the red “enhanced reliability” hammer spring) and Dremeled off the tail of the hammer to get the lock speed back up. Shoots great and is a lot of fun. So far none of the excitement that got them banned at Appleseed.
