WINCHESTER WILDCAT?

does anyone know about this gun? its a .22 from winchester, and it seems really nice.

link ---> Wildcat Bolt Action 22

It come with 4 magazines (3 10 round and one 5 round) but ive been told that calling it a wildcat means they are playing around with balistics or somthing? Im new to shooting so i dont know much about all of this stuff, but ive been told to give away the idea of a .22 and go for a .17 because their better? how come? and does anyone sugest silencers for rabbit and fox hunting?

It's the Americanised Russian TOZ .22LR rifle. Search back a few weeks - we discussed it pretty thoroughly.

It's an Americanized T03-78. I have the Russian version and absolutely LOVE it! By far the most accurate .22 I've ever shot, including "match" rifles. Mine does 1.5" 5 shot groups @ 75yds with me shooting and it's more accurate than I am.

I have one coming in for a customer when it arrives to the country. Actually, we've ordered the first import

-I'll keep you posted when it arrives and we get a look at it!
