Thanks for the replies. I was sorry to hear they are all semi auto. I was hoping it was a pump as I had a bad experience with semi auto and not keen on them at all.



They were also made in bolt action- single shot, magazine clip fed and also tube fed repeater. Also the model 76 trail rider, only lever action Remington ever made.

Too bad pump never existed.
 
The Win 63, Browning SA 22, and the Mossberg 51/151 models I know to be very reliable designs. The Browning weighs maybe 4 pounds? Silly how light it feels.
 
just DON'T take it apart- it's more than a nightmare- even for smiths

Swapping the parts from a 66 with a broken stock to a new stock is one of my least favourite jobs. Can't do it without a book.

I have a couple of Brownings. One is a rebuilt composite of Belgian and Japanese parts, the other is a diminutive FN in .22 short.

Sorry to hear that, but don't let it sour you on semi-autos. The Nylon66, though inexpensive, was one of those absolutely stone-axe reliable guns that just kept shooting without any problems or hiccups. They still come up often on the EE, but for a few more dollars than they cost new.:)
 
lol all it takes is one thread and now a but-fed pump is on my "I want list"...

I have not seen such a gem, and a quick search of google defied me. I could rhyme off (as done already) a few manufacturers who made but-fed rimfires, but they are all semis. No one pegged the early Marlin 88 so I call dibs on it. N'er owned a nylon bolt action, but pretty sure they have either a forward tube or a box magazine ("clip" according to Remington's own lingo/packaging).

I've never had a problem with feeding from any buttstock fed rimfire I've owned. Tubes were never bent, or lost (watch what'll happen now...soon WTB magazine parts ad in EE). Many Mossbergs, and a few Remington 66's passed through. I'll attest to Nylons not being very fun to reassemble. Anecdotal trivia/add on: Watch how they work closely. The bullet seems like it's squirted into the chamber...I imagine trouble with feeding would be serious trouble.
 
"Hey Mauser , what did you use on that stock ? I'm thinking of doing mine and like what you've done ."

After stripping and sanding to 400 grit, I sealed, filled and top coated the stock with Minwax Wipe On Poly in satin.
