best .22 rifle?

I have a hard time deciding between the Winchester 9422 and the CZ 452.

Chances are, I'd end up with the later, since they're easier to find.
 
I selected the following 22lr Savage Mark2 BRJ 22lr

So why did I select the Savage Mark2 BRJ 22lr
1 Laminated wood stock seems to be the best stock ie durable, rigid
2 Savage accutrigger. Safer and more accurate
3 bolt action simple and reliable
 
Without reading the whole thread, I'll put my nod in for a marlin model 60. Try to buy an older, pre 1980's one. There were millions of them made and a used one can be picked up for a song. Probably the most accurate semi-auto .22lr ever made, and mine has been nothing but reliable. Even without a rigid cleaning schedule.


Edit: I just read the whole thread and see you're looking for a match rifle. Marlin 60 IS very accurate, but you'll be better served by a bolt action CZ or Savage.

+1 for the Savage Mk II. You can't go wrong with the AccuTrigger, good (or in my case, decent) glass and a good action on a good, comfortable stock. It's ridiculously accurate when I shoot like I know what I'm doing. :D
 
What you need is a variety so you can select .22's like a golfer selects golf clubs:

I have to admit that CZ on page one sure looks tempting. But it brings up a pet peeve..... I've picked up CZ .22's before and I'm always interested until I turn the rifle over and look at the trigger guard. How come CZ is still using some kind of bent sheet metal for their trigger guard after all these years? Looks like something that would have come on some inexpensive utility .22 rifle from the 20's or 30's! Somebody must make a replacement but CZ really should design and produce something a little more modern looking right from the factory.
