Best 22LR for the money?
« on: December 07, 2022, 08:02:11 AM »
I'm in the market for a 22lr in any action but bolt action. When it comes to dollars vs quality, what is the best rifle for the money?

Sold a 10/22 to a forum member, hope he has enjoyed it as much as I did.  That would be my choice, endless options, maybe hold out for an old sporter

Anyone ever tried the Winchester, Rossi, Savage, or citadel semi autos?

Lever actions are fun but all cost $300+ same as a ruger

I bought my wife a Savage Precision B22 with the MDT stock.  It’s very accurate and we’ll built.

I think that was everyone's first rifle that's older than 35  :chuckle:
