If I am going to shoot groups at the range at 50yards, the Shilen select match stainless steel bull barrel with Bentz chamber and target 22LR will get small groups.

But if I want to pop a coon in the brain in the back yard at 10 feet with a CCI CB Short, the 10/22 will not do it.

Go to a 1960s Rem 550-1 semi auto or a Rem 572 pump or a Win 61 pump.
