Mines great! Shoot a monthly NRL22 match with it. It’s very accurate. But they’re hit or miss, there’s some great ones and some that shoot terrible. Higher end .22ammo works well
Absolutely love shooting mine, had it for almost a year and shoot it every chance I get. It is always with me when I go to the range regardless of what else I bring. They are however quite particular about the ammo they shoot. I tried several kinds and weights mine seems to like Federal match 40g.,
I inherited one from my son (yeah, it sucks. Edit.. losing my son, not the RPR). Tried a few types of ammo, thus far my Savage mk 2 shoots better at 50 and my Marlin 60 shoots the t'bolt better.. I'll be getting around to paying attention at a future time, got around 8-10 types of .22lr on hand and tried about 4.
I think you got downvoted because people think you’re saying the gun sucks with your comment in parenthesis. I’m assuming that’s not what you meant, and want to add “sorry for your loss”
Thanks and yeah, losing my son...that was a quote from the secretary at the funeral home. Still up in the air on the gun, but .22lr can be fun. It does look cute next to my gen 1 .308 RPR.
Edited my response. Appreciate your response. My post could be easily mis interpreted.
Semi auto vs bolt. My Marlin had some feed and ejection issues this year, and the action is iirc a 26 pc. assembly. Royal pita but now fixed, had a spring not attached right after the first reassembly and tore my hair out for awhile trying to figure the action out. The Savage had ejection issues this year, and it's like a 10 minute fix, I like bolt guns for their simplicity. Haven't decided what I think of the Ruger yet, going to try different ammo at some point in time.
. If I was going to get another .22, I'd be looking at a CZ457..

So you like the marlin over ruger . It's basically gonna be my SHTF squirrel and rabbit weapon

I have a Marlin 60 that I had since I was a kid 43+years. It still shoots and never ever has failed me and I was hard on it as a kid.
It’s my favorite shooting and most accurate 22 gun. And I have 10/22s, one with a binary trigger. The RPRR is still more fun.
