Magnum Research has some awesome.22 and .22 mags. I have a .22 mag with thumb hole stock with a graphite wrapped bull barrel. Leupold 3x9 and it weights less than 6 lbs. It’s a tack driver.

007Mag is right. The Speedmaster is a great semiauto.22.

They are beautiful little rifles, and will shoot shorts, longs and LR That's always nice. The Marlin Model 60s/ Glenfields deserve a mention too. For a lower priced rifle, they are really accurate and will shoot as fast as you can pull the trigger.

Have ruger 10/22, marlin model 60, and CZ 512. Marlins probably my favorite to shoot and if I had to pick just just one it would be that one. The CZ 512 is also very nice wished I would have gotten it in .22 magnum.

I've got a model 60 stainless probably made in the 80s, it's got the checkered walnut stock with the diamonds in it Thing shoots great and I gave 100 bucks for it. Looks good too.
Me and my brother put about 150 rounds through it a couple weeks ago.

I thought all of them were .22 mag, I've never seen one in anything else. That's what all 3 of mine are.

I just never have seen one in .22LR. Makes sense that they would have them though. Do they have them in .17hmr?

Second vote for a ruger charger. Highly customizable and a ton of fun. I put a primary arms prism scope on it. I've added a buffer tube and a lighter trigger as well. Playing the waiting game on a silencerco warlock 22 suppressor. Today is day 156 of waiting on on BAFTE

Picked up a charger a few days ago. Topped it with a Burris fastfire 3. Shot it for the first time today. Bought it mainly for my kids to play with. It's fun to shoot.

Browning SA-22 (with some Grade 5 wood for fun)

Ruger 10/22 for a play toy

Takedown models are pretty fun.

Bolt action, CZ over Kimber (have both)

I've also had marlin bolt action For 30+ years. Got the itch and bought the savage A22 semi with thumbhole stock and accutrigger this past summer. The trigger is a disappointment. I really wanted a trigger pull like the 2 pound timney on son's 243, so he could plink with 22 and have same trigger feel, but it's no where close. I do LOVE the leupold rimfire scope I bought. "Our VX-Freedom 2-7x33 Rimfire Scope gives you a closer 60 yard focus distance and a rimfire specific Rimfire MOA reticle" i highly recommend this scope no matter which gun manufacturer u go with.

On a side note, bitch at Walmart wouldn't let me feel the trigger-pull when I was looking at the gun. It was an impulse buy during the lockdown. Has anyone here successfully modified an accutrigger? Mine is no where near the 2 pounds it advertised.

It’s adjustable. Just google how to do it or read the manual.

Not sure this is accurate but I’ve alway thought that it isn’t good to dry fire rimfire
