I would like to purchase an Anschutz .22lr rifle. After doing some research it looks like the 54 action is the direction I would like to go. The rifle will be used for target shooting from the bench or possibly from a Remple bi-pod.
I would like a heavy barrel, with a wood varmint stock, but I have been unable to find a model like this.
The 1710HB would work, but it only has a "sporter" type forend. The 1712 seems more suited for Silhouette shooting.
The 1913 and 2013 with the BR-50 stocks are full on benchrest rifles. Does any of my fellow CGN'ers have
some ideas?:)
 
If you've got your heart set on Anschutz, an older Match 54 rifle like the 1411 (or even 1407) might be worth looking for. While they're 60s technology if they've been cared for they'll shoot bugholes all day long and come with a rail that will accept one of Henry's bipods. You'll still pay more than a CZ 452 or 455, but I don't think either of those actions is the equal of the Match 54 action, even after all these years.
