cal516,

You haven't been back since your orignal post in Nov.

What is your budget? And what type of action are you in the market for? Bolt, semi-auto....? Those points would help, though just about any avenue you're interested in has been covered here.

My pics for being on a budget ... used 10/22 for semi-auto, Marlin 25 for a bolt, don't think there is a budget lever .22.

My pics if money is no object, Winchester Model 63 take-down for semi-auto, CZ 455 for bolt (swap barrel model) and a Marlin 39 for alever gun lever
