i got kinda excited about those takedown 10/22's when I first saw them.. But then I realized that I already have something better. An M-4gery in 5.56 with a .22lr conversion. Its takedown, you can put it in a pack if you want.. its got Hi-cap mags.. and I can swap the bolt and shoot .223/5.56.. So why get a 10/22 takedown? that was my question to myself which I couldnt justify.. I have too many .22's already. I can already carry a backpack full of AR .223 mags, and throw the .22 conversion in there with a couple bricks of .22 ammo.. GTG

Dont get me wrong, I definately think those 10/22 takedowns are cool rifles. I just posted the reasons why I couldnt justify myself buying one. Your new rifle is sweet!

Cool! How well does it keep a group after shooting, taking apart/reassemble then shooting again? Pretty accurate?

I just bought one myself a couple days ago. It is sweet! Should be a fun gun for a very long time.

The store was out of the BX-25's though, so I wasnt able to pick those up yet.

As for it keeping group, there are several video's out there where people put hundreds of rounds through, taking apart again and again. Stays perfect.
