Finally took out my Kral KR 22 to the range today, and I could not be happier. For a gun that only cost $279, she shot absolutely amazing, surpassing my expectations. Here’s the full breakdown:
- the stock mags are shit, invest in a REM 597 adapter and REM 597 promags. The mags will need to be broken in with some use and maybe some oil
- I fired over 200 rounds and maybe had 10 misfires at most. I tried minimag CCIs, stingers and blazers, and I would definitely recommend the minimags. I shot 100 of them and maybe had 3 misfires
- for a 22lr, this thing is pretty accurate, I attached some photos of what I shot at 20yds
- overall is a very smooth lil plinker, would def recommend to anyone new or on a budget
Setup:
- kr22 OD colour
- Rem 597 adapter
- (2) promag 597 22rd mags
- kill house airsoft red/green dot
- cheap ahh laser at the bottom
Damn, well it’s always good to have another decent tactical .22lr semi on the market. I feel like this things are very much going to be hit or miss on quality. Hopefully I’m proved wrong
I fired 330 rounds out of my Ruger 10/22 yesterday and got 1 misfire from a 597 stick magazine, and 5 from a 597 drum. All failures were FTF where the bolt smacked into the cartridge denting it. The approx 80 rounds through rotary mags had zero failures. Is that good?
I was on the fence about getting one of these just to have cause they are cheap but then I stumbled across the northernrim bolt action for similar price also takes 10/22 mags maybe I’ll get both 🤷♂️
Yes, I have two versions of my coupler: One for 10/22 and one for RF224 (same thing but has a rear piece). The rear piece keeps the magazines much more secure. The RF224 has a different mag release and has a big gap at the rear, allowing this extra piece to fit in.
