Take a close look at the bore before you buy, as most 22 HPs were made/sold/used prior to the widespread up of non-corrosive primers and that resulted in a lot of 22 HPs with rough/pitted bores.
I have long thought that the 22 HP is an exercise in frustration/disappointment for most people who take it on, so jump in with your eyes wide open.
Not an exercise in frustration per se, but definitely not something I was interested in continuing. After all Savages come in 22-250 so what's the point? I can hit sheit at 500 yards with one a them.
