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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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..
