Magnum Research MLR22AT ( 10/22 based rifle )

[Rate_of_Twist]

Any one have any first hand experience with the Magnum Research Lite rimfire rifles? I have been interested in a good .22 semi to complement my pair of .22 bolt rifles. The Magnumber Research MLR22AT. An ambi stock, ultra lighttp:// ( and supposedly extremely accurate ) 10/22 based rifle

Any 1st hand experience advice?

They are, as you probably know, 10/22 compatible rifles down to the internals. The one I got was an earlier model, basically like the one you linked to but a Hogue overmolded stock. Very light, excellent accuracy, and good trigger. I could have built one of similar quality by replacing/upgrading almost every part in a factory 10/22 sporter for a little less, but it was mostly all there in the MR. The only negative I can think of is it had standard bolt and mag releases, both readily replaced with aftermarket parts. Dollar for dollar it seemed worth it and I have no regrets.
