Let the plinking begin!
Sounds like fun, have not been shooting for a while, need to go.
This reminds me, I bought a Savage/Springfield 87A at a garage sale for $50 - cracked stock, lots of blue missing, and didn't work. Tough finding parts for it, finally got some through Numrich. I still remember the hassle of getting the various little parts to fit - the parts broken were all in the reloader from the tube into the chamber. Actually, just worn out is all.
When I thought I had it done, I took it to the garage, and shot out the third door into the garden with the hill behind it - no one around out here. Cannot believe the fun when I heard the gun go bang each time I pulled the trigger - rapidly, and the little sub-sonic CCI casings pinging off things in the garage.
.22's can be lots of fun!
