Parry,
Good luck with the .22, when I was younger my church used to have "turkey shoots" sometimes, where all the old guys (and us young guys) would get together for a fun day of shooting, and one of my best friends had a pump-action .22, his I think was a Rossi, but I believe it might be similar or the same rifle as the one you are getting. VERY fun gun.
good luck,
John P.
