I have had the papoose and I liked it but had problems with the clip staying in. My old tube feed marlins work great as long as I clean them about every 2 years (yeah I know I will get some flack). The only issue I have had with the marlins is jamming up when shooting extremely fast. The spent casing can not clear the ejector fast enough before it tries to feed another round.

The best 22lr I have is an old single shot bolt action. My grandfather bought it brand new back in 1947. Extremely accurate rifle.
