Ten months ago, I compared Keltec PLR22 and Crickett. Now, rimfire ammo availability is improving but everyone has a set view that it’s unavailable…at least for the prices they’d want to pay. That tips the balance towards the omnivorous Crickett Hunter with its long barrel and simple bolt action.
One advantage of a .22 revolver. It doesn’t need LR or high velocity ammo to work. I can still find some .22 Long and .22 Short ammo out there. Works just fine in a wheelgun (or a bolt pistol).
Ruger Charger Oleg. The old one.
