RE: who sells a accurate 22 cal. auto. rifle/
You can't go wrong with a Ruger 10/22. T/C puts out a "classic" that is very nice as well.
I'm certainly going to throw in a vote for the Marlin semiautos. The model 60 is the more common version, it's tube fed, which many people don't like, but it will keep up with the 10/22 in accuracy and reliability with ease. Not to mention that it only costs about $100-150 (depending on stock and finish), whereas the 10/22 usually runs $200-300.
Marlin also makes magazine fed rifles, the 795, which is basically the same as the 60 but with a detachable magazine, and the 7000, which is the same as the 795 but with a heavy bbl and a scope mount (no open sights). I've not had a 795, but I run a 7000 for rabbits and some competitions. It's every bit as accurate and reliable as my 10/22 race guns, but it only cost me $170, whereas the custom 10/22s cost about 4 times as much (although they do fire and reload faster and smoother).
