Looking at buying a 22 LR bolt action. I want a wood stock. I looked on the website of Ruger, savage, CZ , browning. Who else am I missing?
And has anyone got any input on the savage B22G, Ruger model 8359? I like the looks of these on the web.
I seen the browning t straight bolt but kinda outside my play fund$$

If you can find one, the old Remington model Five is a good shooter.
They were made in Serbia by Zastava and imported by Remington.
When Remington stopped importing them they were/are being sold as Zastava MP 22

A buddy and I each had one and they very accurate

It’s not a wood stock, but I recently bought a Tikka T1x 22lr with a 20” barrel. That thing is very accurate at 50 yards. I haven’t stretched it out further than that, yet. I was able to adjust the trigger down to 2 pounds. I could get it lower, but 2 pounds is good with me.

CZ457 would be a great fit or a Tikka T1X with a walnut stock swap from a standard T3.

If I were buying new CZ. If used is OK a pre '84 Remington 541. Those are fine sporter .22s.

Not opposed to used, if I could find one in good shape and will shoot a nice group at 50.
Kind of a dice roll on used I guess till you get it home and shoot it.
I’m gonna look at the CZ website again.

With cheap ammo, mine will produce a 10 shot group that a penny will almost cover at 50 yards.

CZ is probably your best bet for new all things considered. For used, there are many, many good rifles.

I gave my son a Ruger American. It's squirrel accurate with bulk ammo. I've not tried the better stuff because it's not my gun. The magazines are good. Magazines are really important with a 22 because you spend so much time loading them. The thing that annoys me about that gun is the bolt handle is easy to brush open carrying it around. That and it's on the wrong side, but...

I have a T-Bolt. The magazines are the best there is on a 22lr sporter. Very nice gun except the trigger design is just stupid. The bolt release and trigger use a common spring. That means if you reduce spring tension for a light trigger, the bolt may slide right on out of the gun. You can buy an aftermarket trigger, but same problem.

Mine is as stock. It's a little stiff but breaks cleanly with no grit or creep. I've never measured it because I know it'd just make me mad. The gun is very accurate. I regularly head shoot sq way on out there. It does take a while for that trigger to break though. If you get one go the heavy barrel. It does not make for a heavy gun and will help with shooting.

I wouldn't bother with the Savage. Magazines are too important to bother with that one.

You may see the Keystone 722. It's good gun with excellent magazines, but has scope mount issues. The gave it a Monte Carlo stock, which you'd think would be for scoped use, but no. It's set up to use the excellent iron sights they put on. To mount a scope you get to make your own, which is best, or suffer their thick picatinny rail which puts any scope way too high for a proper cheek weld. With a different stock set up and tapped for a common Weaver rail it'd be an awesome little rifle. I've been trying to get my daughter to sell hers and get a CZ instead.

Steyr makes a nifty little .22
My bolt .22 is a Springfield 84C - I still shoot it with open sights.

I don’t have that kind of coin to play with $$$$

I’m liking the looks of that CZ 547 American in walnut. Looks like you can buy additional barrels in 17 and 22 mag for a decent add on price.

Thanks for the input

Yup, still got mine! Remember us popping clay pigeons on the berm at 100 yards. I like my 10/22, but it can't compare to the accuracy of that model 5.
