If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Which one would you pick? I am not going by cartridge only by the design and quality of the firearm

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Im goin for Marlin. Only because i have 3 Marlin rimfires now and love them. The trigger on them is rough but other then that they are great shooters.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

CZ, because I want one.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

CZ hands down! I have the 452 American and it's one hell of a rifle! Definitely better than any American made .22 you'll find today[&o]. Sad but true. Just be sure to get the trigger kit and you'll have yourself a tack driver!

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I give another vote for the Marlin. I have one myself. Shoots well.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Though it's not in the poll, my pick would be Anschutz hands down......choices in the poll a CZ 453 a distant 2nd

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I’ll add my vote with limited experience and would say the Quad but you knew that eh, OEH...:D

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I have corrected that deficiency

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

That would be my pick as well , I just don't have the deep pockets for one.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I voted CZ. I just wish they offered a composite stocked 22mag, or 17HMR. I love their wood stocks, but I'm too hard on a pretty gun to have one.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Weatherby's is made by Anschutz.... and they get my vote... especially because I won one! I'll sell my opinion for a free rifle!

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Is this vote supposed to be based on best value or best gun regardless of price?

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Best gun irregardless of price and I think few would disagree would be the Anschutz . I am polling based on Design and Retail Price

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I have several 22 rifles. My go to hands down dead accurate 22 bolt action is a Kimber of Oregon model 82. If you shop you can find a good used one for around $700. Thatis a lot of money, but you are truly owning the Cadillac.The Anschutz is in the same class.

I have not shot or handled the Sako. I did not like the stocks on their older rimfires.

I did buy a LH CZ, and for the money it was a fine rifle. The LH was not available with the set trigger. IMO the set trigger in the RH rifle would be a good choice for an inexpensive rifle.

If you could find an older Remington 541 or even a 581, then you would have a fine rifle. Those are the only ones I would consider on your list.

Find a Kimber of Oregon 82, and spend the extra money. They are truly a piece of art, and second to none in accuracy. Tom.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Actually a local gunshop has one for 850 and the stock looks incredible with just beautiful grain and figureand it appears to be extremely well made...I didn't know what kind of track record these rifles had. He has had it on the rack for over a year.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I would pick the Ruger but I must admit that I have almost no expierience with any of the others. I have a 10/22, a couple Little Favorites and an old Remington clip fed LH bolt action 22 that I have had for 30 years. BTW I just had a local Smith find me a new stock for the Remington. The guy who had it before me cut part of the forend off and insalled a bolt to hold onto with a hook hand. I have not seen it since he got it back.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Got to go with the Anschutz.Have not handled the Quad.All of the Annies I have ever shot were dead nutz.But I do have a Remmie 540X that ain't bad.;)

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Ruger 10/22s are great guns. They are like Honda Civics... if you don't like something on it.. there is a part to replace and totally customize it avavilable cheap. They shoot fairly well too.. espeically once you replace the factory barrel.

I have had, for MANY years a Ruger 77/22. It never really shot all that great.... with its prefered target ammo you could get 5 shots under a silver dollar at 50 yards. Good enough to kill a squirrel, but man .22s are supposed to be deadly. I put a Volquartsen barrel on, channeled out the stock to float the barrel, bedded the action and had it parkerized to match the look of the barrel better.... it will shoot a whole box of 50 rounds of just about anything through a single hole not much larger than a pencil eraser at 50 yards now. I swear... just something about the barrels on Rugers it seems....

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

If those are the ones the CMP had, they're good guns, but good luck finding parts for it should you need them.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Your vote doesn't count your not playing fair;)

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Honestly you are right old... I haven't gotten to shoot the thing yet. Spoke with Jen at Weatherby a few days ago... said turnaround time should be between 7 and 14 days... so I should have it by 1 march.

Hard part is putting a scope on it.... gotta find a well made glass in fixed 4x with a GLOSS finish (might as well match). Found a VX-II I beleive in 2-7x32 I'm considering. Also the FX-II in 4x32... think thats the way I'll go! ;)

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Well heck, if we can name other rifles I'll take myWinchester 52B over any of these rifles. That's when America made real .22 rifles. Not the junk like today.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I have one of those old Winchesters too. It belonged to my wife's dad. My LH Remington really shoots well.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

OH NO DON"T BRING THOSE UP!

One of the few non-buyer regrets I've ever had. Let one slip past me two years ago. Wanted $550 for it... didn't think it was worth that... but the gun was as cherry as they come. Original owner worked in the shop with me... hadn't put 1000 rounds through it and he bought it NEW (he was on in years). Man I wish I'd just bought that damn thing!

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

LOL Being the cheapskate that I am and the fact that it shoots so well Im sticking with my Savage..lmao. Yep Im the moron who voted for the Savage :D

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

:(Ohhh. $550 for any old Winchester is as about as good as it gets. They don't turn up every day that's for sure. I got mine from a man that had it in a shop on consignment. They wanted $800 for it and it had the original front globe and rear peep sights with it and I jumped on it as fast as I could. It shoots like a demon as well. Now if I could talk my BIL out of his Rem. Model 37 I'll be set!:D

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I love my CZ452 american,9.5oz trigger,it will outshot my 541T.and cost a lot less.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I have some nice .22 mags, custom and factory but my all time most accurate gun is my savage 93fvss. The firstgroup after mounting the scope and sighting it in was 1/4" at 50 yards. At 100 yards it groups under 5/8-3/4". I shoot the remington v-max bullets and have 3-9 Nikon on it. I spent $225 dollars on it and it will out shoot my custom $1500 rig. For the price you can't go wrong and now they offer the accutrigger on them. Awesome coyote gun!!!!

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

I would and have picked the Ruger 77/22. Rugers just fit me perfect and Iprefer a magazine that fits flush to the bottom of the gun. I own mostly Ruger CF rifles and find it is the perfect full size .22 to practice with. It's plenty accurate for me.

KEJ

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Thats why I listed Savage as my fav as well. Im almost certain it would shoot the entire box of ammo into a group less than an inch at 100.

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Well that wasn’t the case with my Savage 93fvss in the 17 HMR. My groups were more like a couple inches at 100 yards and ended up selling it...

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

Had to be shooter error because every and I mean every Savage that leaves the factory is a match rifle.;)

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

OEH , yeah you got me. It’s funny I can get under 1” groups shooting 5 rounds with my 6 mm but that Savage with that target barrel just throws me right off. Just can’t handle that Savage, I guess...:D

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

That savage might have had one of those really tight chambers and had an extremely precise groove and land measurements, Because everyone knows that them dar Savages can shoot.;) It just probably needed that Eley handloaded 22 ammo that is so hard to get...

RE: If you had to pick one of these bolt rimfires
 

If I had a $1500 custom rig that shot thatbad. I would take it back. I have aLH Savage 22 magnum. It makes a nice truck gun. But it by no means shoots as good as you say yours does. It will do about 1-1/2 inches at 100 yards. This is perfectly good acceptable accuracy for a 22 magnum for ground hog's. But to try and compare a Savage to a Kimber??? Sorry. That is like comparing a Cadillac to a Pinto.

You may be one of the lucky ones that has a Savage that shoots that well. But I will put my Kimber's up against the Savage's any day.Tom.
