Tpoppa Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 What's the most accurate .22 rifle around $5-600? I have a 10/22 and a 15-22 that are fun for plinking, but thinking about a bolt action .22 for accuracy out to 150 or 200 yards. Any ideas? I been looking at a some of the Savage .22s.

Tpoppa Posted October 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 I've hit a couple bulls eyes Some .22s are capable of hitting a golf ball at 150 yards...some aren't regardless of the shooter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vf1000ride Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Put a better barrel / stock on the 10/22 and call it good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought about that, but for the price of the mods I can probably get a bolt gun that'll be more accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer_kaw Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Ruger precision rimfire or Cz 457 post above makes a good point. If you start down that road you end up with a $1000 10/22 pretty quick CZ makes a pretty nice rifle that you should have no need to mod.

Green mountain 20" ss fluted barrel, $187. Boyd's Ruger blaster stock, $147. So $334 gets you to a 1" gun at 100yards. I splurged and added the Volquartsen tg2000 match trigger to mine for another $275 but it's not 100% needed. Even so that puts you at $609 for a match grade gun. I didn't feel like it was a bad deal at the time. Edited October 16, 2019 by vf1000ride 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I look into it I'm leaning towards a full target model. The Ruger Precision Rimfire & the Savage B22 Precision can both be had around $400. They both have crisp adjustable triggers and are both MOA bolt rimfires out of the box. I don't think I could build a comparable 10/22 anywhere near that price. Plus I'll still have the 10/22 and 15-22 for plinking abuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 I think bolt action is a good choice. Probably doesn't have to be new. My most accurate 22LR is an ancient Mossberg bolt action tube feed with an old 4x Weaver scope. It easily places all shots within the size of a quarter at 50 yards measured. (Prone w/bipod) Ammo selection is critical, find what works. For me, it's Winchester 22LR SuperX that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTheAzn Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 I had a savage bolt. I forgot what model but as soon as I put semi good glass on it, it got so boring to shoot lol. I was hitting things at 100 yards standing and it was boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 (edited) Isaac's first rifle was a bolt Savage CUB with an Accutrigger. He still has that rifle. I have been kicking around the idea of another gun. I do not currently own any, but want one for the house.

Tpoppa Posted October 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 I know you are all dying to know what I wound up buying. I got the CZ 455 .22LR Tacticool Suppressor Ready. Costs more than something like a Savage or Ruger rimfire , but more accurate and the build quality is on another level. Stock, these are capable of shooting 1 MOA or slightly better with good ammo, probably closer to 1.5 MOA with cheap bulk ammo, which is fantastic for a .22. A stock 10/22 is typically in the 2-4 MOA range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Very good choice. Now may I interest you in a suppressor to complete the package? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is going to happen. I haven't looked into a trust yet. I like the CZ suppressor, but open to other options https://cz-usa.com/product/cz-rimfire/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 There really is no reason to use a trust in your case. And that doubles the wait time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Also I have no experience with the CZ suppressor. If I were to recommend one to you it would probably be the Silencerco Sparrow. But by all means try the CZ, I’m curious. I can supply you with a Sparrow to try side by side with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidgetTodd Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Sheriff sign off is no longer a thing. You just fill out the form and send it in in your name. Done and simple. The only real benefit to a trust is if you have say a large family of shooters over 21 and you want all of them to be able to take the items out shoot at will. The trust allows anyone on it to posses the item. That’s really the only reason to do one. Stamp times to an individual are substantially faster than to a trust.

MidgetTodd Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Trusts were a way to bypass sheriffs that refused to sign. ATF took that away because sheriff’s were refusing for no valid legal reason. They have no say in it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
