Best NON-Restricted Semi-Auto 22LR

I’ve got a Volquartsen and it’s worth the money, no problems, wasps at 50 yards. My Browning SA has no trouble with CCi quiets(740fps)
 
A 10/22 was won in the 80's but it was sold without firing a shot.
Would not buy one unless it had a maple/walnut stock.
Bought a rifle that was advertised as walnut but on registration it came back as birch.
Bought a carbine guaranteed as walnut and cannot tell the difference.
The trigger on the rifle was replaced with a Timney which cut the pull to three pounds.
Worked the trigger on the carbine down to 3.5 pounds but on testing found it wanted to double tap. Tested using two rounds and once was enough.
Ordered the KIDD trigger kit from Dlask and still waiting.
Neither 10/22 has had a FTF or FTE using CCI SV, Blazer, Thunderbolt, AE 40 gr. or CCI MiniMags.
Put a Weaver T36 on the rifle and with Federal Match 922A at 100 yards, the best group measured 0.52 c-c and the average for 5 five shot groups was 1.10".
Time to sell something and it will probably be the H&R 5200 with the Palma sight . . . I have had my fun with it out to 200 yards!
 
My Rem 597 is on my never sell list.
My only semi auto .22LR for last 8 years and I have never had a single stoppage with it no matter what ammo I shoot.
It's dead accurate too. Far more accurate than any of my other 10/22's I've owned over the years before it.

10/22's are good but I settled on the 597 long ago and sold off my 10/22's
 
What you are looking for is a Remington 597 VTR. A little heavy but never a failure, eats any ammo, can have a bajillion round mag, and has a heavy barrel.
 
Open up your checkbook and build what you want on a 10/22 platform. Don't bother saying the 10/22 is junk because there are thousands of people who have experienced otherwise.

i actually own a 10/22 and it may not be a piece of junk at ten feet to target but beyound that it is a tubular scrap metal, and if i am going to pen a cheque it will be to anything else, but making a 10/22 do what it should from the start.
