Excerpts from Ron Spomer article,
"Tradition or High Tech"


Sporting Classics, 1997
(September/October issue)


"Rifle-makers are bringing back the past, as in Browning's Model 1886 Traditional Hunter, or giving us a glimpse of the future, as in the Acculite .22 from Magnum Research."

"Minneapolis based Magnum Research has made a name for itself with big handguns and precision bolt-action centerfires, so it's a bit of a surprise that its 1997 darling is a diminutive .22 rimfire. But what the Acculite 10/22 lacks in firepower it makes up for in accuracy. The heart of this custom semi-automatic is its thirteen-ounce graphite barrel comparable in stiffness and performance in ten-shot groups under .351-inch at fifty yards. What a squirrel rifle! You can buy the Acculite as a complete rifle (from $600 to $800 depending on stock) or in components to upgrade your current Ruger 10/22."
