iPhone 5
The good thing about the iPhones are actually the crazy fan boys, and how much they hold their value. I havent had to pay for an iPhone since they debuted back when, In fact - I've made a substantial amount of money just upgrading to the new models. I've always pre-ordered / bought an extra 1 or 2 and listed them on ebay and they've always sold for between 1200-1500 dollars. x 2 phones, and then selling my older model that i've used for 3 years for between 200-300 bucks. So, I bassically make a couple grand to upgrade to the new models. Sounds Crazy, but it's fact. I'd be stupid not to go this route. God Bles Amurica

Help me out with ruger decisions
buy the cheapest ruger 10/22 you can find, your pretty much just buying it for the receiver ( and trigger group if you are keeping it ) and tossing everything else ( if you want to do a build like your talking about ) Like said above, you can get carried away, but you get exactly what you want. PERSONALLY, i wouldnt REPLACE the entire trigger group with a kidd, or volquartsen group. Go ahead and spend the 30-50 dollars on upgraded hammer / spings / guts for the trigger group. I did this with mine and the trigger is down to about 2 lbs. If you are looking for a crazy light trigger your only option may be to spend the money, but to me - 2lbs is just fine. Barrels, again - skies the limit - I spent about 100 bucks on a green mountian barrel - while it shoots fine, it's on the heavy side - I initally used it as a bench gun @ 100 yards, but lately I've used it in Steel challenge and the weight is definately a hinderence.

I'd skip the mosquito as well, good call. We saw one break in two , slide cracked in half, at a steel challenge match last weekend. Pretty ridiculous for a 22

Ok so I think I'm in the market for my first .22
I'm a HUGE fan of the Ruger Mark 2/3 series, so I'd like to reccomend you to reconsider, but if you already made your mind up so be it. I've shot the M&P22, which belongs to a shooting buddy. It's been problematic for him, And personally I do not like they way they feel. Feels to much like a toy ( as do most the all plastic 22s ) The Sig 1911-22 / GSG 1911 - From what i've observed, they've been hit or miss. I've seen more than one that cannot get through a string of 25 rounds without jamming at least once or twice. But i've also seen the odd ball out, who runs pretty good most the time. Again, IMO - They are hit or miss. Lastly, IMO - a Ruger Mark 2/3 w/ bull barrel is the best .22 pistol money can buy. It actually feels like a real gun and has some weight to it due it's steel design. Mine has been the most accurate / fastest / and realiable pistol I own. I've shot probably over 10,000 rounds through it so far this year and I can count on one hand how many times i've had a issue ( mostly ammo related ) Good luck with your choice.

Anyone have experience with .22 revolvers?
While ill agree a smooth trigger is important, when you have an 18lb trigger its sort of a moot point A mix between a manageable weighted trigger and a smooth pull is best. A good gunsmith can get a double action trigger on a centerfire revolver down to about 4.5 lbs, I do think rimfire needs to be a bit heavier by default by the way it strikes, but how much I do not know.

I usually bring 200 rds and have a handful left over at the end, but bring 250 to be safe - who knows if there will be a few Texas stars that burn alot of rounds

Never to young to learn
He's shooting a .22, Dad is in control of the firearm the whole time, son is just getting a kick out of pulling the trigger. I have no issues with this, when that kid is 15 he will probably be a world class grand master. I wish I had started young.

Oct 7th - OBRPC - Steel Challenge
Pretty much all the normal stuff goes except for rifle rounds, magnum loads, and black powder There will be an Open/Iron divison for Pistol / Rimfire Pistol / Rimfire Carbine / Revolver / Centerfire Carbine As far as the weather, hopefully it holds out - Typically they'll send out an email before hand if the match will be cancled.

Oct 7th - OBRPC - Steel Challenge
Yes, you can shoot a .40 carbine w/ optics. You do not need any mag pouches at all, but you SHOULD have 5 mags for your carbine. Steel challenge is 5 runs per stage, 5 targets per run. So assuming you dont miss, it's 25 rounds per stage. fastest time wins
