RE: .22 brand
 

A bolt action .22 is almost unnessesary. Anyways I have purchased a Ruger 10/22 Semi auto and it is a beautiful piece of work, awsome gun, thats really all I can say.

RE: .22 brand
 

You should be able to find a Marlin in that price range - Rugers tend to go for a bit more.

here in aussie we have a high regard for cz(brno), anchutz and krico.do they fall in your price range in america?

RE: .22 brand
 

Something else to worry about after you get the rifle is ammo - I've found that the various brands/types shoot differently. The fun is finding out which one your rifle likes.

yeah remington vipers used to put holes all over the landscape from my 1450 anschutz but winchester rabbit ammo would tackhole.i like cci velocitors now best 22 bullet i ever used.

last reply for rick reno.one day i will learn how to use a computer.honest.

RE: .22 brand
 

since no one has mentioned them, i feel obligated to suggest a cz rimfire. A bolt action .22 lr can be had for around $200 and they are of excellent quality. Also, all of the cz rimfires i have seen have been extremely accurate. I have a 452 american in .17 hmr and it's a tack driver.

live2hunt743, i have many .22's and the number one .22 bolt action is the CZ, Marlin comes in at a close second, but nothing compares to CZ rifles, the varmint version, the american, or whatever you like, can be quite pricey though, but they are worht it. I would suggest this model, the Varmint model. http://www.wholesalesports.com/images/brno/63278.gif ,
Marlin 880sq is also another wicked rifle, i own both CZ and a few Marlins. If you have any questions about models or anything, just ask me.... Good luck!!
