classic 22 lr

[RobertMcC]

I got a Cooey/Easton Ranger 76.

 

[Rob]

Yes, but a Model 5

I would probably go with a brno model 1

Browning Trombone - THE CLASSIC , however a Gevarm is fun ...

I took a Cooey 60 and a Mossberg 146B out shooting last week- Had the Cooey for a while, just got the Mossberg. Both are classics, but the Mossie got 200 rounds through it and the Cooey only got 50, I hate to admit the Mossberg felt much better and smoother, and the 20 round tube mag was more fun than the Cooey. I think I'm now a Mossberg convert, they seem to be highly overlooked and undervalued. Both the Cooey 60 and Mossberg 146B seem to go for similar money, but side by side the Mossberg wins hands down.

Vinver...
Nice to see another Mossberg convert.Don't be looking at those Mossbergs too much. They tend to follow you home once you get the fever.

Maybe not a classic classic but I'd like to get me a Nylon 66.Bought one when I was a kid for $212 and foolishly dealt it away.

I grew up with a short Cooey single shot heavy barrel, I have never seen another similar gun and have no idea what model it is but it was a great trainer. My favorite is this Brno Model 5...

I have a few of the rifles often mentioned so far in this thread, like the 452, Nylon 66, a couple of Cooeys and enjoy them all. That said when someone mentions .22 rifle I think Marlin 39a.

I'd have to place my vote for the classic BRNO M1 as well. Beautiful lines, well designed and a pleasure to hold and use.

A Lakefield MkII repeater was my first .22...
They were a good quality Canadian made .22

I lucked out with an EE purchase of a 1968 Remington 40-XB .22 RF. It came with the Redfield peep sights and a bunch of front sight inserts. The metal work is in great shape, the stock could use a bit of work, but no complaints. It weighs 12.25 pounds and sports a 28" barrel that is .88" at the muzzle. I can't wait to shoot it this weekend!!!!!!

My very first rifle.(Sorry a reply to the Nylon 66 post) Lots of fun, but horrible accuracy. Sold it to my uncle and bought a Rem 571 Fieldmaster. Polished it so much i wore a lot of bluing off.

Was that the one up for sale a couple weeks ago? I seriously considered that one. It should be a great shooter. (But not as good as my Winchester 52's). Lol

Yes it was that one. I was second, and had to endure a 24 hour 'hold' on it. Turns out the fellow that put it on hold, was trying to get approval from the CFO and the request was denied. I'd really like to send that woman flowers, this rifle is amazing!!!!

I put a Talley 20moa 700SA rail on it, fit perfect. I then robbed my Anschutz 64 MPR of it's Leupold 6.5-20EFR.....I've never been so excited about shooting a new rifle as I am about this one.

Don't say anything to me about 52's.....I've been having a hard enough time with CZ's, Remington's and Anschutz multiplying.

 

[Underthegun]

Sounds like I really missed out. Oh well. Here is one of my 52's

For me, it's a Winchester 250. I have my dads and I bought one for my son. We were assassinating pop cans today with his.
