Buy recommendations "Tactical" Semi-Auto .22 Recommendation
Hey fellas,
I am looking to get this communities insight on a .22lr that would fit the bill for the training I want to do.
I know next to nothing about the semi auto .22 market outside of a bit of googling. I am not really a gun guy but I have a lot of trigger time on AR platforms. I want to maintain that skill set and some previous job specific standards
Money is not really an issue.
I am looking for something that feeds reliably, is accurate, and has AR-style ergonomics (preferably even a similar safety selector, mag release, and bolt catch); In that order.
I intend of mounting an eotech, flashlight, and possibly a laser at some point.
I want to predominantly shoot between 3 and 25m, working on single to multiple round engagements with a shot clock and some multi-target running around stuff. Hence reliability being the main thing.
So far I have stumbled across the ruger 10/22 which seems the most customizable, ST 22, Adler, and the Derya TM 22 which seems nice but the pricepoint seems low. I have read about issues with the Adler.
Any insight on you guys on a good gun or custom build that would check the boxes I want to check?
Thanks!

SBI 10/22 chassis, pretty sure they are selling complete rifles too. They post here pretty frequently.
CSC has some Volquartsen builds in stock, I’ve heard mixed things about their reliability. Pricey but they look nice.
