Buy a Henry lever action. I think they're around 250$ and are pretty sweet. My buddy bought one a few weeks ago and put a cheap little scope on it for around 350$. A lot of fun to plink with and lever actions are awesome.

Henry makes a great rifle. If I needed another 22 I would get a lever.

Check out the Marlin XT22.

Ruger 10/22 but doesn't shoot sr.

I need the sr to take care of the cat problem I have around here.
less noise in the neighborhood = better chance the fuzz don't get called on me

You can also look at Marlin 39A (lever action).
Or you can find a used Winchester 62A (pump action). Rossi also made a model 62A based off the Winchester design.
All those are inexpensive and shoot .22 LR, long, and short.

prefer semi

finding a semi that shoots shorts might be a bit tough.

I don't know if you'll find a semi-auto that shoots shorts. You might have to look at pump or lever action.
Some semi-autos will shoot .22 short like a Ruger 10/22. The problem is they don't feed. Basically you would have to load a round, fire, load a round, fire and that kills the entire point of semi-auto.
To be a little more clear: .22 short doesn't have enough power to cycle the action on .22 LR semi-autos.

I don't think you'll have much chance of finding one under $200, but Remington made some .22 semi-auto rifles that could handle .22 short, .22 long and .22 long rifle.

That's well over his price range.

I've seen used 39As sell for $200. A new one would be out of his price range though.

I like the Semi Marlin Tubular magazine. When I was teenager, my friend and I would go to the creek and start shooting away like crazy. I think we used short and longs in this gun...

I have one. Shoots great. Not sure how much it cost it was my dads.

Sorry. I always assume new.
Yah. I would buy every Marlin 39A for $200, that I ever see, in a second. No brainer for me.
Posted on 1/20/12 at 1:16 pm to coloradoBengal
I buy a lot of used firearms when I find good deals so I don't always assume new I guess. I see 39As pop up from time to time in the $200-250 range.
