I have a winchester in .22 lots of fun being able to shoot faster than a semi-auto. They can be very accurate.

We have a couple of old Savage M29's in the family, one pre WW2 and one post WW2 and both are great shooting rifles.  They've put a lot of squirrels on the table.

I like the Taurus pumps. Fast and fun. People who shoot them just smile, can't be helped.

Re: pump speed vs semiauto:

This may be true of pre-Benelli shotguns, but I don't think .22 pumps can beat the potential cyclic rate of .22 semi autos.

Pumps are still damned fast.

Have an early savage 67a, "visible loader." It's a worn out but fun family heirloom. More like a gallery gun.

Love my Henry.  Colobri powderless .22 shorts are a (quiet) blast around the truck yard, and I think 19 of 'em fit in the tube.

the winny's and remmy's are the best.  the taurus is a dead on copy of the winny.
henry is very good as well.  the winny and remmy also has value, but especially so the winny, so be careful with yours!!!!

I’m going to test this this weekend if it doesn’t rain. 10/22 with a 10 round mag and my Taurus M62 with 10 rounds in the tube. Ill comment back on the results maybe even with a video.

I've got a little nickel plated Rossi gallery gun that I just LOVE to shoot and everytime I go out plinking it and my Colt 9mm AR Carbine are the only guns that go out with me everytime.

Alright I tested several times to see which is faster my Taurus pump vs. my 10/22 and it turns out they are about the same, but from what the editing software shows for the audio the pump was slightly faster by like 4 hundredths of a second, Now next weekend I’m going to test it against my GSG-5 and maybe my mark III. I know my GSG-5 is faster than my 10/22.


Video to come

Maybe…

I learned how to shoot with my great grandfather's Winchester 62 and when i got my first .22 I wanted a pump action.  I ended with a rossi packed it everywhere.  It's accurate and functions well with all .22 LR ammo except AE.

Been tossing about the idea of getting a Henry pump.22 Magnum, myself. Anybody have one, or have any experience with one?

Got one of these that were willed down.  A Winchester Mod 61.  She looks like she has only been fired a hand full of times and after looking up the price of one of these, she might stay that way.  Really sweet 22 rifle though!

I had a Rossi in the youth model when a a kid, I had a blast with that rifle.  Times got hard and I had to sell it.  I have regretted it ever since.  Rossi was bought out by Taurus so they are basically the same gun.  But you don't see or here of the Rossi's much anymore.

I'd like to see that.  I just can't imagine a pump being faster.  I would think the results would be better with more rounds.  Can't thise tube feds hold more than 10?

Yeah it will hold 14 but the point was to match rounds with the 10/22 10 round mag.

If you watch the video closely enough there was one short stroke where the round wasn’t loaded.

I like to play "Jingle Bells" with a steel plate and my GSG-5.

I can get two verses out of a mag.

I see, I was thinking of a high cap 10/22 mag.  I thought I was the only person who only owned 10 rounders!

I have a 1923 Remington model 12 and a 1951 Remington 121. Great shooters, but the 121 has extraction issues I'm trying to iron out.

I just picked up a perfect little Rossi pump.  I had one when I was a kid and have always loved them!  I still haven't had time to go out and shoot it though.  I'm going to try to get out next week.

My dad has a 1941 Savage model 29a pump 22. literally 10k+ rounds through it. When I got to take it out by myself (30 yrs ago) I can remember filling the tube shooting as fast as I could and reloading <–––– repeating as nessesary. We just found some extractors and she's as good as new. Accurate too, dad can still out shoot me when we both use that gun...

So, if you can find one, you'll probably pay a pretty penny for it.

Remington Model 572 Fieldmaster .22 Pump

This was my very first firearm.  I purchased when I turned 18.  The dealer, Ted Beck of the now closed Beck's Sporting Goods on Rising Sun Ave. in Phila., PA sold it to me used with a Weaver 4x scope for like $125- handed me a FREE box of bullets after the paperwork and said "here ya go, have fun".  I will never forget how good I felt.  The gun is fun for plinking and to take down those dangerous "tree rats."  Rifle takes short, long and long rifle ammo.  Never a problem.  I will never got rid of this gun.

I have a pair (brace?) of Winchester 62A rifles and a vintage Model 12 Remington.

Pump .22s are the single greatest intro to firearms you can give a new shooter in HISTORY.  Take a new shooter and set them loose with .22 shorts or longs on a pack of savage tin cans.  Oh the HUMANITY.

My Winchester 62A is my favorite firearm hands down.

One interesting note about the original Winchesters is they did not have a disconnector on them.  Simply keep the trigger pulled and pump as fast as you can.  

The Rossi and Taurus remakes I think have disconnectors in them.  Not a big deal, but a small difference.  I have shot a new Taurus and it did rather well for itself.

My Winchester pump .22s are true family heirlooms.

They are worth the money!

I have an old Savage 29 love it super quiet with Remington Subsonics. I have missed a couple deals on Remingtons next one I come across I will get. The semi's are fun but the pumps for some reason seem a little more,  its one of those guns everyone smiles when their done shooting it.

I don't know about the Taurus, but unless they changed components, the Rossi pump has no disconnector-at least the rifle a friend of mine has doesn't-functions just like the Winchester they're trying to copy. Great rifle, but I'm holding out for an authentic Winchester. Problem is, the Winchesters worth buying have gone so high in price that everybody who has a good one is keeping it.

What, no browning, FN trombones?
If I ever find a nice one at a fair price.
