Buy recommendations 22lr options
Good people,
I was hoping the internet could point me in the right direction.
I’m new to the hobby, I’d like something I can modify, maybe do some simple comps with.
Something that even if it’s flawed it’s something I can figure out myself to learn some more about the gun or just send it in for a claim and won’t be screwed.
I live in Vancouver so shops that might help me out in person would be amazing as well
Ngl Ik PCC are banned now but something 9mm would also be highly appreciated other then 22

Another vote for checking out Reliable Gun in Vancouver or their beautiful new Langley location. Reliable actively supports NRL22 and PRS rimfire comps, so they know what to consider when it comes to comp guns.
If you wish to shoot PRS style matches, I'd stray away from a semi auto, the accuracy and consistency just isn't there.
CZ457 is sort of the go to if you want a upper mid range gun.
However, before you purchase a PRS rifle I would highly recommend to reach out to a local match director and go spectate a match prior to buying a gun. Everyone at a prs match will be happy to show and tell or share their opinions!

This is a good place to start to find local PRS matches.
POCO also has a practice night on Thursdays

Also if you want to ask me some questions, I'm pretty experienced in PRS 😄
