What’s it got that’s going to make me drop my TM-22 and spend some more dough?

Only thing I can think of really is possibly a bolt release.

I mean hard to tell based on just pics, would need to handle it and test the action, but based just off visual inspection it definitely looks sturdier and better materials/build quality. Looks to be quite a bit heavier, but I’d guess significantly more durable. Again, tough to say. I guess it also depends on whether you prioritize light weight or sturdier/more durable rifle. My personal opinion just looking at pics of the two I’d definitely opt for the C22.

The TM22 pro’s are pretty sturdy, all metal and I’ve yet to have any durability issues.

This is the same idea being cranked out by the same manufacturers. At best it’s simply an alternative offering of the same thing with a bit more window dressing. Same idea, more fancy milling.

The safety broke on my TM22 on day one of ownership. That sucked.

You had me at O’dell. Dealt with them only a couple times but it was a positive experience. I certainly don’t need another 22 but I’ll give this a shot if it’s designed by them.

The whole O'Dell crew and family are some of the nicest people I've met.
Hearing Phil talk today about the whole thing really showed me how much they care

I've been wanting a 22! This is my sign as to why I haven't bought one yet. I was clearly waiting for this all along!

u/GFN_good_for_nothing 15d ago

Do you know when it’s coming to the Canadian market?

u/TescoValueSoup 15d ago

All I know is "before Christmas" if things go to plan

u/GFN_good_for_nothing 15d ago

Cool beans, interested to see how it stacks up accuracy and reliability-wise, and if they’ll do a 22WMR version. For some reason people were talking about 22 magnum on another post I saw about this, not sure if they have a reason to think that will be an option or if it’s just wishful thinking but it’s a nice thought for sure.

u/conanap 15d ago

Does this mean it’s a rotary feeding mechanism?

u/scottsuplol 15d ago

Will the mags look like .22 mags or are they beefer looking like a normal mag

1

u/swift_gilford 15d ago

Proprietary mags, 25rds. Will also accept 10/22 mags

What about the mags make it so they don't fit the 10/22? Or are these just a different notch similar the HC3R Tuf22 mags?
