Well, I now own one. I've owned a 22A for years and tho I always hated the looks, it was a good shooter/plinker. I think the Victory is a huge upgrade for many reasons (not having shot it yet). If this gun meets my expectations, my son gets the 22A. Plan to put a bunch of rounds through it this weekend weather permitting. OTD at local shop for $375.
