I was going to buy the Sig 522, but certain things were a turn-off for me. The SWAT version of the Sig is considerably more to get a railed fore end, and it doesn't come with any sights. In the last month or two there's been a new iron sight set for the 522, but I think it was pretty stupid not to supply the rifle with any sights at all and forcing the buyer to spend more up front.

I liked the feel of the 522 more, but I doubt I'll own a Sig 556 before an AR-15, so for control familiarity and training I went with the 15-22 MOE.

Both are great guns, but I think the 522 cons outweigh the pros when compared to the 15-22. If the SWAT version of the 522 was just over $500 I might be singing a different tune, however.
