Should clear a scope if it is the same throw as the centerfire. Smart going with the 10/22 magazines. I hope a 17 HMR follows.

I like them, but agree about the wooden stock comments. Hopefully there will be aftermarket accessories.

Seen in LG&P this PM: a Ruger American in .22WMR.
M77/22Mag magazine, blued, polymer stock with interchangeable combs, grooved and d&ted for bases. LOP was short - at least 1" less than I expect, but not unmanageable. They also had a .22LR but I didn't fondle it. Folding rear with firesight front.

I would like to have one of the 22" IF it had a threaded barrel

+1 to a factory threaded barrel option
+2 for the threaded barrel preference, but I'll have one even if they GLUE the thing together. Too cheap to pass this up. The shorty barrel with full length stock option will make a great trail gun. Short bolt lift and combo drilled/grooved mounting means you can put any scope in the world on the thing.

No left-hand version. Guess I'll just have to stick with my Marlin 39 and Remington 121.
I brought home a pair of the compact models this morning... ordered the longer stock inserts this afternoon. Mounted a scope on the Magnum (waiting on another pair of bases for the LR), and will set up the LR the same way next week.
The Magnum version shoots very well, and I'm hoping the LR shoots as well once I get the glass on top. Both did fine with the open sights, and I could get along with the short stock if I wanted, but... options are always good.
