Cograts on your purchase.Mags will be a wait,but if you are persistant,you'll find some ammo.FL715T said:Picked up a 715T with carry handle yesterday and look forward to trying it out. Stopped by a friends Saturday and he showed me his that he just picked up. Stopped in Gander Mountain not expecting them to have any but they did. Been a number of years since I did any shooting and thought this would be a fun gun to have. Look forward to learning from those on hear. Now if I could just find some ammo and additional mags.
Mountains of Utah,a new 715,shootin' with the boys,,,,,,,,sounds like fun to me!Zell said:I went to a local gun show a few days ago and started looking at AR .223's. Since Obama has another 4 years and a ban on high capacity clips/mags is inevitable -- with a possible near-future ban on AR's as well -- I thought I might add an AR to my fairly small gun collection. At least that was the thought until I saw how stinkin expensive they are -- out of my price-range. So I got looking around the show and came across some .22 AR style rifles. I've always loved the AR look so I bought myself a new 715T flat-top w/sites that came with a 25 round mag -- and the price was a whole lot better than a .223 even though my 715T is only a plinker. Our family has a cabin in the mountains of Utah with a lot of open space to hunt varmints and target shoot cans, bottles, watermelons, pumpkins, and other assorted large fruits and vegetables. I buy my sons (ages 20, 17 & 10) .22 riffles when they turn 16 but my own .22 is a 40 year-old untrustworthy Browning lever-action. So, as of last Saturday, I now have an AR plinker to shoot alongside my sons instead of shooting expensive 9mm and .45 rounds. I just ordered two 25 round mags from Mossberg that I was told not to expect until April, but I'm fine with that. Can't wait to get to a range with my guys and put a bunch of holes in some paper.
Thanks, I am really looking forward to getting to the range with it. I did pick up some ammo at Gander Mountain when I got the rifle but it was expensive so didn't get much. Think I will call Mossberg and order a couple of clips from them. Better to get on the list now and if I find some sooner I can sell them to my buddy that introduced me to the 715. Guess it's time to go do my daily ammo searchnctrailboss said:Cograts on your purchase.Mags will be a wait,but if you are persistant,you'll find some ammo.
You can make a sport of finding 22lr ammo. Cabellas had 10000 boxes of federal 325 in stock yesterday.It was all gone by 11pm.I got lucky and snagged 6 boxes at 10:25pm,guy said there was about 100 left at that point.Fair price too,15.99 a box.He told me one order was for 100 boxes. :shock:FL715T said:Thanks, I am really looking forward to getting to the range with it.

Good catch there!You're gonna like that puppy.Thanks for your work at CCI, the 715's love the stuff.dtaylor said:New owner. Put my name on a list Sunday night at Walmart. Monday afternoon they called and they got ONE in that day. 24 hour wait, not bad! $229. Itching to try it out. I'll be looking for extra mags this weekend. I work at CCI, good to hear all the positives about our ammo. Poking around on amazon and eBay a bit. Looks like amazon will be my new best friend.
