I think most .22 rifles made today are made for the long-rifle cartridge and there has been plenty of threads about it. There has recently been a thread about .22 shorts, but I don't remember any threads about the .22 long. I remember as a kid, that it was my favorite. I don't have a .22 that will handle the longs, but my son has a Win 62 that will. Course, it shoot lr, l, and shorts all mixed up if you want to.
Anyone shoot the .22 long these days?
