I started out with a Glenfield. It has as 18 rd. tube mag. My dad has had it for many years and it works great unless it's dirty. I recently bought a Ruger 10/22 black Carbine model. It shot good right out of the box. The first thing I did to it was to put a 3-9x40 scope on it. I went to sight it in earlier this week and about 60 rds. into the session, I was getting less than 3/4" 5-shot groups at 50 yards. There are many aftermarket parts for the 10/22 and they are very easy to work on. I have other Ruger guns and I know that they are durable and reliable. My vote is for the 10/22 in any of the several incarnations of this fun little rifle.
