RE: favorite .22 and why
My own personal all-aroundfavorite that I own is my old Winchester moel 1906 pump. It isn't the most accurate, (although it's pretty good for irons) and isn't the best balanced. But when it comes to carryin it around all day and having pure plinking fun it's a standout.
My most accurate is my Marlin 25N bolt. With the right ammo I can get some amazing groups out to 60-75 yards.
If I had the $$ i'd get a CZ 452
