Been looking online at packages. Looking for something under $250.00. Suggestions? Maybe have a good used one for sale? Fishing and honeybee time

Nice thing about the Ruger is there are many aftermarket parts made for the Ruger. I have a Savage Mark II bolt gun that I gave less than $200.00 for and its a tack driver with just about any ammo you shoot in it. h.h. If you're not a hemorrhoid, get off my butt.

I may shop around and see if I can find one that is used. He also likes the Savages. MKII are nice and we are leaning that way. His money. It is what he has saved up for. Fishing and honeybee time

Might want to get a 5 shot clip too because when you shoulder the gun the 10 shot clip will dig you in the back.......ask me how I know this You can use the 10 for practice shooting and the 5 for hunting when you sling the gun. h.h.

Be careful and have fun with it. 2. Never sell that rifle. I sold my first .22 for something "better" many years ago and I've always regretted it. There is nothing "better" than your first rifle.
