Seeking advice on target .22

[Chad Young]

Ok, I am in the market for a high-quality target-grade .22. I have a 10-22 for fun and hunting, but want a good .22 for target shooting. I prefer heavy barrel, aperature sights, mag fed, bolt action, but all other styles would be considered. What rifles in this ilk do you own/shoot? What do you recommend?

I have seen MArlin 7000 and 2000 rifles and they seem pretty nice, as does the Savage 900TR. Most Anschutz are out of my $ reach.

Depending on your price range, Winchester 52's do real well.We just tested a 52C last week. Accuracy at 100yds averaged 1.29" for 5 shot groups and .553" for the best 3 of 5. The averages were 1, 5 shot group with each of 5 different types of ammo. It was a windy day, so I think they can do better yet!
