600 bucks for that, no thanks will keep my Remington Nylon 66
B,
You seem to miss the entire point of the rifle. Its not designed as a general purpose gun.
The gun is also not $600 dollars- read the website again.
It weighs about 1/4 of what a nylon 66 weighs and takes down for packing.
As I said before - any intelligent backpacker would likely rather carry 1.5 pounds of rifle AND 50 rounds of 22 ammo rather than carry 4 pounds of just rifle.
FWIW at the price of a mint Nylon 66 -a Ruger 10/22 stainless takedown makes the Nylon 66 look like a bad joke for real backpacking ..
