Thanks for the link, Blitz. I've been wanting to do an appleseed shoot for a while and 10/22 come highly recommended for that. However, the question is when I'd ever find time.

I'm bummed to hear about he stovepiping of the Marlin #60. Most reviews I've found on-line for this rifle say only good things and the price is definately right. I don't need this to be a SHTF rifle (that's already nicely covered) so a dinged tube magazine doesn't worry me.

I guess I need to keep thinking. The pan shops around here seem to have a bunch of $300+ Henry lever action .22s but no cheap used poppers.
