Best 22lr lever gun?

[Tinybear]

I enjoy the Henry Frontier 22wmr I have. Fun to shoot accurate and not overly difficult to clean. It’s a pretty rifle too with nice wood and the octagon barrel. But when you take it down it’s evident that it is built to a price point.

I will likely replace it one day with a BL22 as I don’t need the 22wmr extra power(paper puncher) and love the quality of the browning (it would look good beside my browning SA22.

Tinybear....I've owned both the Henry Frontier and a BL22. They fit differently.
I could not get a proper check-weld on the BL22. My neck was always cranked to see the open sights. Sold it and kept a Henry for my lever gun fun.....

Henry frontier. Hex barrel very good shooters and a real old west feel to them. Best one of the bunch if you ask me.

Winchester 94/22, if you can find one on the used market. One of the best and a solid investment as well.

I'll wager that most individual cannot hit a pop-can shooting off-hand at 50 yards...

Those people either shouldn’t own guns or should be out practicing a lot more.
Good thing .22 is still cheap so they can do that lol

BL22 I have one that is 40+ years old and has 20,000+ rounds through it, shoots lights out and is still smooth and tight

I bought a browning bl22, Ithaca m48(ithink) and Henry 001 all for the price of the Winchester or marlin.

Sadly I sold them all and don't own a lever .22 at the moment, They all do the job, Depends on preference I guess. I'll buy any of them again if I see decent deal
