Same. My 15-22 shoots anything you feed it
Yep mine too
Though i have been seeing some sweet deals on 10/22's recently. I have been very tempted to scoop one, different animal than the 1522

yeah, Im waiting for a super ridiculous deal to pick up a takedown. Dicks had that $50 off all 10/22 sale last summer. I went to buy one the last week and no one had a takedown in stock. Manager gave me his card and said he would honor the sale when he got one in stock, but once they did the regular price had gone up $30

There was a wood stocked 10/22 TakeDown (in beech) on Slickguns last night for under $300 (possibly incl shipping), but maybe the Dicks deal last summer was better.
If not dead set on the takedown, CDNN has a 10/22 lazermax for $199. Certainly a hell of a deal. Paid ~249 for my 50th anniversary.
Found it. $290 incl shipping from Sportsmans Outdoor Superstore.

I never said people didn't like them, that's pretty obvious from this thread, don't you think? My point is that one is a "toy" while the other is not. YMMV, have a nice day.

15/22 has rendered the 10/22 obsolete IMO.
15/22 field strips without tools
15/22 does not require a special model to "take down"
15/22 barrel can be cleaned PROPERLY from the rear without tools and mods
15/22 is easier for a novice to service the BCG and FCG
15/22 barrel is threaded (Yes SOME 10/22 models are threaded)
15/22 magazines drop free
15/22 barrel is floated
15/22 stock is adjustable (Yes SOME 10/22 models are adjustable)
15/22 has a last shot hold open (Yes SOME 10/22 aftermarket mags can BHO)
15/22 mags load easier and are more affordable
15/22 is equipped with a rail system to mount forward grips, bipods, and other accessories (Yes some 10/22s have rails)
15/22 mimicks the American Rifle in every way
15/22 can take AR15 triggers like a 2 stage geiselle (Yes Ruger makes an affordable drop in but its not a 2 stage)
15/22 is more quiet suppressed
15/22 barrel can be shortened without loosing the front sight
15/22 can co witness optics and irons
15/22 takes AR 15 pistol grips, BUIS, and Stocks
There's no .22 autoloader on the market that can match the performance, simplicity, cost, and weight of the 15/22.
The only down side to the 15/22 IMO is repair parts are not readily available like the 10/22.

The 10/22 is no more durable than a 15/22. 10/22 can corrode where the steel barrel meets the receiver which can require labornextensibe machine, the stock lug can strip and get cross threaded, the scope base screws can strip the guiderod divot in the receiver, rendering the receiver a paperweight.
Now I'm not saying the 15/22 receiver can't break, but to ,say current production 10/22s are more durable is not really fair. The materials and craftsmanship of current 10/22s is severely lacking compared to models they made a decade or more ago.

I own both as well. While everything mentioned above is true, my view is a little different.
The 15/22 has rendered the tactical style 10/22 obsolete.

Just wait. I was at their booth at SHOT. They have a TD bull barrel with Hogue stock coming out shortly. They rushed the stocks from Hogue to get them to the show. I already have my name on the list for one.

I don't see the tactical application. Adjustability, and better sights, makes for a more universal and practical firearm. One a 6 year old can shoot and one a 6'+ adult can fire with comfort with just adjusting the stock.
They seem to be very popular with old and young appleseed shooters as well. I dont shoot those matches so perhaps my customers are embellishing their use.
The AR15 is only tactical if one makes it out to be one. In my eyes its the American Rifle. The closest thing the 10/22 resembles function wise is the M1 carbine IMO.
Its just my perspective working on and shooting .22s. IMO the 10/22 has been dethroned by the 15/22. My experiences has led me to think other "black" autoloader rifle .22s are junk. Colt, Marlin, GSG, HK, Mossbrerg don't hold a candle to the features and ease of maintenance of the 15/22.
The 10/22 won't be going anywhere and its parts availability can't be matched. If there one .22 rifle you'll never run out of sources for parts, it will be the 10/22. The 15/22 could be discontinued by S&W tomorrow making their plinkers future paperweights when parts as needed. That's a HUGE downside.

Agreed on all fronts with Clandestine. Not that I don't enjoy my 10/22, but IMO 15-22 > 10/22. If LW only would make their custom barrels more readily available....

I still think I'd prefer one of these over the 15/22.
