this ones a two parter first ill post this and you tell me what .22 rifle action you would rather have then post why. when this poll closes ill get the tally, then post a brand/model poll, to narrow my search, for the perfect .22

semi-auto b/c they are fun to shoot!

It depends on the end-use, what are you going to be useing it for? If you are just wanting to plink a semi will surfice, if you are wanting an accurate hunting rifle a bolt action will be good, if you are wanting a tac-driver, a heavy barrel single shot will do the trick!

i said single cause i like single shots and they are the most dependable guns period, besides bolt.

A lever action Marlin model 39. It is a lot of fun to shoot and they are accurate.

I agree. I chose bolt action on the poll because I could only pick one.

I voted semi-auto based off of they are fun to shoot. However, as previously mentioned - it depends on the purpose. Single shot / bolt action for accuracy, semi-auto for everything else.

i mainly want a cheap reliable tree rat/bunny/crow killer. i like the looks of the bolts ot walmart, can never remember if they are marlins or savages, but there around $150 so if i can save i can get one, next time i go ill check, and let you know. right now im depending on my 870 as an all around gun, which it is, but i hate shooting squirrels at 10yds with a 20ga. i mean it really tears em up, id use .410, but what if i get a long shot? .22 gives the best of both worlds.

What Devil Dog said.The single will do anything the semi will do.Just not as fast.A semi wont do what my 540 X will do.

I like a bolt action and they don't jam a quarter as much as half the semi's do..
