I have a few hundred .22 shorts. I like the round more than most people.


I have sentimental attachment to .22 short as it is the first round my dad taught me how to shoot as a kid. I can't even begin to speak of all the good memories.

I still have my old Ithaca single shot dad bought me when I was 12 years old. It shoots short, long & long rifle. Although it LOOKS like a lever-action gun, it isn't........ the lever actually drops a block so as to load the single round into the chamber. Just a cheap but well made old gun with no collector value but it is still one of my most valued possessions.
