How much is entry into the Appleseed? I'd love to attend one, but I need more ammo if I'm going to do that.
70 for the weekend..80 at the gate if you dont pre register..or 45 per day{pre register} or 50 for 1 day at the gate.
if your gonna do it with a .22..1 bulk pack of ammo will be good enough {550 rnds} be way to expensive to use a center fire for the full weekend.
+1... I used my Colt SP1 one year. It would have been cheaper to buy a 10/22 and a bulk pack of .22.70 for the weekend..80 at the gate if you dont pre register..or 45 per day{pre register} or 50 for 1 day at the gate.

I love it when a plan comes together.

Ha, that's what I was gonna suggest for Savage. May be cheaper to go that route, plus, you get a new gun out of the deal!

Well let's add this up...
$250-$300 for a decent 10/22 (Can't find them cheaper)
$20-45 for bulk pack .22
$50 for extra mags
-----
$350-$400 before admission
Keep the SKS
$250 case (1Krnds) of x39
$5 sight tool
------
$255 before admission.
I'll just use the SKS instead of buying a new gun. Of course this will have to come after I sell or scrap my RamCharger to fix the tranny in my F150...

Don't you see?!
By your calculations (which I agree with), you're getting a brand new 10/22 for (350-255=95) 95 bucks! That's the cheapest new 10/22 price you'll find anywhere, man.
Of course, yeah, if you can't swing it, you can't swing it - I know how that goes. But I'm just sayin.... it might not be a bad deal if you could swing it.
