Default RE: Is there a "good cheap" bolt .22 rifle?

I know that Marlin makes several variations of one. I have never shot one, but I do have thier stainless tube fed one and it shoots about 1" groups at 50 yards, which I think is excellet for it only being topped with a cheap Simmons scope that is so blurry you are lucky to see the bullseye at 50 yards let alone hit it lol. Anyhow, it may be worth checking into. Another thing to consider is trying to find an old Winchester bolt action single shot rifle if you want accurate. My old single shot with just old fashioned open sights will group about an inch at 50 yards if I do my part. I love to take it out when the kids are shooting thier 22's with scopes and still beat them at horse with my single shot 70 year old rifle lol.
