The Ruger Impact offers a lot of value for such a great price. The .22 caliber offers what you need for either just plinking and having fun, or taking out small game or pests. Reach velocities of 1300 fps with alloy pellets (1100 fps with lead pellets). The Impact comes with the patented SilencAir system, which reduces the muzzle noise of the rifle. The wood stock is traditional and timeless, includes a 4x32 scope mounted on a Picatinny rail. Really the only difference between this gun and it's older brother the Ruger Yukon, is the Ruger Impact uses a spring power plant instead of the Yukon's gas piston. Don't forget to pick up plenty of pellets and a pellet pen for easy loading.
