WTB 22LR Rifle

Lambo · Jun 24, 2006

In the Market for a new 22LR Rifle(Auto-loader or Bolt). I'm looking to spend no more then $300.00. I will not consider the Ruger 10/22! I'm looking at a Catalog and found a couple that appeal. The Remington M5 BA & the Charles Daly Superior ll. Any other suggestions?

Maybe after looking at this you might want to spend a little more

I think that if I were in the market for a .22 right now I'd look at the T/C auto loaders or CZ bolt actions. The T/C I think is out of your price range but some models of the CZ are not. My CZ .22 hornet is a tack driver.

I went in Dicks today. Didn't see any Remingtons or Czs. Does Wal-mart carry either?

Noton has a SWEET CZ452 that he got at On Target in Severn. www.ontargetdot.com

About 2 years ago I bought a used Marlin model 25 for $90. EXCELLENT bolt gun. Very accurate.

Unfortunately I don't think there is a dealer in Md. close to you. Maybe you could try Pa. in this search:

Walmarts seem heavy on Marlins and Rugers, but I have seen a bunch of Remingtons there before.

Another vote for the CZ452. I can't imagine that there is a more out-of-the-box-accurate .22lr in that price range.

Last time I shot it, I put 5 shots in the space of a dime at 25 yards.....and I'm not that good of a shot.

The Gun Rack is a CZ dealer so they may have some of the 452s in stock.

News Alert, Wal-marts in Baltimore County will no longer sell Firearms! Stopped in today at the White Marsh location, the Clerk in SG said it all ended last month. They will continue to sell Ammo, for now anyway. Before all is said and done only the Wal-mart Stores in Montana & Alaska will sell Firearms!

Allegedly Walmart has recruited un upper level executive from Target, who we all know is extremely anti-firearm.

I probably never would've purchased a gun from Wangmart, but you can be I'll never drop another dime there if they stop selling ammo or raise their prices significantly.

From Target? With such great advise about satisfying their consumer base, I'm surprised it isn't the business manager of the Dixie Chicks.

Yup....and it's getting worse. See this if you haven't already:

So'd you pick out something yet? For me it was the 10/22 that caught my eye. Would like to get a CZ452 one of these days, have not heard a single negative word about them.

Spot77 · Jun 30, 2006

I long resisted the 10/22 craze, but when my kids started showing interest in shooting, the 10/22 youth model was the obvious choice. Built on a regular full size receiver, the barrel and stock are shorter and can be changed as the kids grow.

I recently bought a used (very good condition) Remington 512 tube feed bolt action for $125 from my local shop (Brownstone Trading just outside Westminster). I had been looking for something like this for a while and was pretty happy with the purchase. Bradley also had a Marlin with a vintage scope for about $150 and some other semi-autos for very good prices. I'd suggest checking for a nice used gun.

I was really surprised when I checked the markings on the Remington and discovered it was manufactured in October 1951. Based upon the condition of the rifle, I thought it was about ten years old.

I have yet to get it to the range but I'm really looking forward to it.

BTW, everyone I've talked to rave about the CZ .22's being one of the best values going for a new gun.

I look forard to seeing a range report on that when you get the chance to shoot it. Sounds like a great firearm.
