I don't have a BL22, but a friend of mine did. That rifle was awesome! It was super accurate! Because of the short throw of the lever
my friend could fire that thing like a machine gun! It shot all kinds of ammo very well. From Stingers to shorts. It is a great rifle. They are
expensive, but they are nice! If I could afford it, I would have one tomorrow.

Very nice guns, I especially like that the trigger group moves with the lever so no chance of catching your finger with the lever on return which I"ve been known to on other lever guns. I really like mine.

I don't own one either but I have shot them on a couple of occasions.

They are an awesome little rifle. The action is as smooth as butter and they are more accurate than I can shoot offhand. I was visiting my girlfriends parents just before new years and went rabbit hunting. Her father had one and happily let me use it so he could play with his new .17. They are a pure joy to shoot. From the very first time I threw it to my shoulder it just fit, like it belonged there.

Like was said before, the only reason I don't own one is the price.
