RE: What .22 is the best?
 

No doubt about it Kimber of Oregon Model 82 or a Cooper. Anschutz is right behind. I would consider the Anschutz an equal if it was American made. Tom.

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

Anschutz probably makes the most accurate OTC 22's, they have plenty of Olympic gold medals to prove it. Another great thing is that they make a good variety of them. Fit and finish are superb and they make some of the best trigger mechanisms there are period. I have a couple of 17 HMR's from them and have no complaints.:D

Cooper, Dakota and Kimber all make great rimfires also but personally I think they are behind Anschutz in the target/accuracy dept. When it comes to gracefull lines, stock work etc onRF sporters,Cooper and Dakota cant be beat.

With all that said, these all come with a much higher price than the Savage,CZ,Marlin,Rugers .It really comes down what you personally value and want to spend in a product to say what is best.

ruger 10/22, a classic that lives on

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

I like my CZ 452 Lux. Haven't shot a lot of others though.

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

My kimber is best for ME for most uses.

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

I will stick with my old Cooey. It is a true tack puncher.

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

I personally prefer the Ruger 10/22, but my father-in-law has a Marlin that is more accurate.

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

The best is not on your list IMO...

I say Kimber. But many would argue Cooper and most high end shooters may argue Anschutz..
These three really should have been on the list.
Winchester model 52 also a great choice, although older.

I have a new Kimber K/22 classicwith talley's and a leupold. With Eley ammo it shoots a ragged hole at 50. This is my choice but not the best choice for all..

If looking for a good fun gun I say the Ruger 10/22, all around on of the most popular ever.

RE: What .22 is the best?
 

I like them accurate, and i like then "less" than full sized... I hate a beached whale, (Ruger) or a tank, (Cooper/Win 52 ect..)

So, i choose Anschutz... BUT, years ago i would have chose a Remington 541-S

I looked at a new Browning T-bolt the other day... it was nice, i liked it, but i don't know how accurate it would be..
