Do not consider the Sig 522, unless you intend to use an optic on it. |

The Marlin 39A in its presafety configuration is quite a rifle. The 10-22 is not a bad gun as long has you don't weigh it down with a heavy barrel.

If you have no 10/22, you need at least 1 10/22 to muck with.

Look at a Henry .22 lever action. I have the Octagon barreled model. I love shooting CB shorts through it in my backyard, very quiet

The Henry is a lot of fun to shoot, for sure. What about the CZ 455 with the interchangeable barrels so you can shoot .22mag and .17?
Also heard really good things about the Soviet rimfire as pictured previously. |

One of the most accurate .22's I have is a Mossberg Model 702 semi-auto that I bought last year for $109 new. Damn thing shoots like a laser.

Can't go wrong with the Marlin 39A. Here are some others that should be on the short list of any .22 collector/enthusiast:
Winchester 52 of some flavor Ruger 77/22, not for its accuracy but more for its feel/operation 10/22, just because everybody's doing it Marlin 25N, simple and straightforward Win 94/22 |

I have one of those rifles (actually my second, first was stolen) and of all my guns-even my full auto and my belt fed .22-the Buckmark Carbine is my favorite. It has a Tactical Solutions aluminum barrel which they only made 19 of, and Shepherd 3-10 power scope with a .22LR BDC in the reticle that goes to 500 yards. It's a fantastic rifle and I'll never part with it. |

My M&P 15-22 is one of may favorites. Its very accurate and fun to shoot. I also like an old Browning BAR 22LR, its got a really short lever stroke and fun to shoot, accurate too. Both these guns are set up with open sights and rarely do I go to the range that one isn't with me.

77/22!
One of the few .22LR rifles that is manufactured like a proper centerfire rifle instead of an upscale airgun. You will pay though... |

If you're looking for something nice, new, and well crafted, another CZ or one of the Brownings already suggested is in order.
If you're looking for something cool and old as a neat addition to your collection, I suggest a military trainer of some flavor. If you want something new to play with a bunch, I think this is a good time to grab a 10/22. This is the 50th anniversary, and all the 10/22s coming out of the factory are marked accordingly. Get you one. |

Look at a Henry .22 lever action. I have the Octagon barreled model. I love shooting CB shorts through it in my backyard, very quiet I have the pump. I really love it and shoot it a lot. It is way way better than 3-4MOA in my experience but I haven't shot targets to prove it. I do not like the pot metal receiver cover especially in its stock painted form. To do it over I'd be more interested in the 39a or the 9422. That being said, the pump action is great and I really like it over a lever for this gun. I like to tie stuff up at various elevations and distances in the back wood lot and have a little gallery fun from the back yard. Shorts are great, and I was able to get them much more easily for regular price (slightly more than what LR used to be) than LR during the height of the panic. ETA: The tube is very easy to load. Just pop them in right side up. If you are having trouble seating the brass piece, just continuously rotate it back and forth as you are going down and it will ride over the rounds much better. I stripped the receiver cover of paint and treated it with mustard (you can't hot blue or case color it correctly):

Very decent shooter. It liked federal classic. Much better than I expected from posts like the one above. My stock 1970 10/22 will do under 1" reliably with tech sights but it is quite a challenge. That is a .5" rifle at 50 with a scope and wolf mt. Only mods are to the trigger group and bolt. |
