I have owned my Sig522 Classic for a few months now and it has has been extremely accurate and reliable. No miss-fires, miss-feeds or jams to report. Compared to the S&W M&P15/22, this gun feels much more like a 5.56 cal. battle rifle. Great trigger too. With my Vortex Strike-Fire red-dot (using medium height mounts), it is the perfect set-up for plinking/training. My only complaint is the butt-stock pictured is NOT the one that I received. Mine came with the folding AND collapsible stock, which isn't bad, but the folding-only one is more solid. Buds Guns shipped the gun fast, and the price was hard to beat. Recommend!

Great .22 that's accurate and reliable, super fun to plink with and fits nicely with my 556R and 556xi Russian. Buds was the best...again and as usual.

Has decent iron sights with front post and rear peep hole similar to AR-15 however the large diameter of the rear peep makes precision work difficult. great trigger, much better than stock 10/22. comes with one magazine and two 1913 rail sections (plastic) for the front forearm. easy enough to take off the flash hider and mount a can although my Warlock II didn't screw all the way down but this is aesthetic and doesn't compromise function. Buy some Black Dog mags with steel feed lips and ur good to go. Overall good value for the money.

The Sig 522 is a decent product. The stamped trigger is a little cheap as are some other pieces on the the gun. I expected a little better quality in a $450 .22.

Since I bought this Sig 522 my 10/22 has turned into a safe queen. The trigger is awesome and the accuracy is good if not excellent. Blowing through a brick of 22's is very easy with this gun. I also have the Sig 1911/22........life is good!

I bought a Sig 522 paid for it on sat an recieved it on wed afternoon. Great shipping time an great service from Buds again an never a problem. The Sig 522 is a great rifle. It arrived in a hard case with one clip. But Sig added thier iron sights an rail system also which is another $100 added on for free. I spent some time this morning putting on sights an rails. Went outside on my 15 acres an shot it. Very very smooth trigger an very accurate at 40 yrds. I can only say I will continue to buy Sig from now on as they sent the 522 clean an oiled an ready to go. I have a leatherwood red dot that i will put on manana an with thier sights i have all i need now for the rifle. Thanks Buds after 4 buys with yall Im a customer for life, best service anywhere!!!

After the initial break in period (250-500 rounds), this rifle has not skipped a beat. It feeds everything from Remington golden bullets to CCI Stingers. I clean the rifle every 500 rounds or so (which tends to be each time I go shooting). I make sure to keep the weapon lubricated properly, and the magazines cleaned. I really like the fact that Sig used an established (non proprietary) magazine made by Black Dog Machine, its a solid magazine, and it can be purchased for as little as $10.00 directly from Black Dog. The trigger is a military style trigger, not a target trigger. The rifle is relatively lightweight, and well balanced. At 25 yards you can easily shoot one whole about a half inch wide if you take your time. I have shot most of the other "tactical" .22's and the Sig 522 is my favorite.

Bought this rifle and had it shipped to my FFL dealer. Ordered it on a Friday and got it on the next Tuesday! My main tac rifle is the CX4 Storm. I wanted a plinker and the 522 was an excellent choice. The first day out and I put 300 rounds with one jam using CCI Mini-Mag Varmit ammo. The trigger is smooth and makes it easy for rapid fire. The 25 round magazine is great but is a pain to get in the last few bullets in. The plastic case that came with it is ridiculously long for the gun, so I ordered a tac soft canvas case that fits the gun and scope snug. It's easy to take apart to clean. I'm a small guy so the gun fits me well. It is a very fun gun to shoot. Best of all the ammo is cheap! Some may say that it's expensive for a .22 but I think it's a great buy if you're looking for a tac style .22 without having to buy a mod kit like for the Ruger 10-22.

I've been a Sig owner for long time. This Sig 522 feels wonderful,shoots well no problems. Mag is advertise as 30+1 it's actually 25+1 not happy about that. Also no additional tactical rails on forend. I recommend this rifle to anyone looking for a fine firearm. Buds did a good job with my trades and tranfer to Colorado, I will definately buys from Buds again. Thanks Guys!!

My first SIG SAUER has been excellent experience! I have been turned over to the "SIG" side now. This is a fine piece of craftsmanship. If i had to choose one bad thing to say about this gun is, the shoulder stock raddles a little bit when fully extended. Other than that its perfect. This was the first gun i got from Bud's that was very clean from the factory that appeared to be cared for from the factory very well. NO sights! I knew this before buying. Its a great starter gun to create your own style......This gun gives you Freedom! It shoots well with no problems at all with 500 rounds so far using winchester.
