+1.  I have the CZ 452 lux in .22 WMR, and I love it.  The Bavarian style stock is great if you're only planning to shoot irons, but also doesn't have a negative effect on shooting with glass, either.

This CZ with a cheap tasco 3-9 did this at 100yds with a extremely dirty bore after a day full of shooting.

CZ makes a fine rimfire.  My 7 year old was shooting a buddy's 17 HMR, and breaking clays way out there.

What you all's take on the savage mkii fvsr? It comes suppressor ready. They can be had for $225. Would these rifles compare to the cz?

Ruger 10/22

CZ is ok

No way on the 10/22

I think youd be happy with either savage or cz, i have history with cz so I can attest to it.

That's the beauty of a 10/22. Their much cheaper, super accurate out of the box, cheap to upgrade, and extremely durable out in the field.


We put a good scope on ours along with a light synthetic stock. Sighted it in once about 10 years ago and I'm sure it's groups are still much like SVT's. We don't punch paper, we hunt wabbit's with it. We warm the kids up each year by having them shoot the bottle caps off several water bottles ranging between between 50 and 100 yards, that's good enough for hunting.

ive got one from 1970 something my dad won in college in a raffle. ticket cost him $1. it will not use a butler creek 25shot clear plastic clip though. it jams about every 2-3 shots. switch back to the factory ten it will run forever without a hiccup. its nothing like my cz 452 though.

ok ok, it was just "not clean"

Dale how does your savage shoot? Which model is that with the low mag scope on it? Is it a 17 or 22

Like this.

I think the choice depends on how you intend to use it.  If it is a rifle to train kids then a bold action or even a single shot is a good idea to teach them to place their shots and aim. With a semi auto kids tend to want to hear it go bang as fast as it will.  The flip side of this is that the Ruger 10-22 is ultra reliable and has high capacity magazines available in addition to the standard 10 round rotary mag, quite useful for self defense when a larger caliber is not available.  Both Marlin and Savage make some stainless bolt actions and  Marlin Model 70PSS Stainless is a take down rifle that can be placed easily in a back pack as a survival rifle.  The Ruger 10-22 can have a folding stock and also be fairly compact.

Yep! LOL 

I too love the CZ 452. Here's mine with a Weaver 2-7x Rimfire.

Another vote for the CZ.

Im scared to put my hands on a cz. I have a feeling I would have to have one.

don't shoot groups except to sight in-- waste of time. The black savage is the tactical model with a higher check and a tactical style bolt for fast manipulation. the scope is a 4x ior that has 15 milhold over in the reticle and that easily in the calibratied turret which is calibrated for 308 168 gr. the drop of a subsonic cci standard velocity replicates the 308 and the 4x gives the same sight picture out to 300 yds which is why the gun makes a good trainer. The experience gained by reading wind drift is worth the effort when going to the bigger guns at 1000 yd.
