The 15-22 is a great little rifle. Took mine out last week and had a hard time keeping it away from my son, daughter in law and 9 year old granddaughter (who is a well trained shooter.) It's fairly new, only had it out a couple of times, about 300 rounds through it , slow, normal, and rapid continuous fire - only two FTEs and I blamed them on the magazine. Enjoy it, it's great fun!
