Elusive Bolt Action TUBE FED .22lr Rifles. Need Help!

[Travis Bickle]

I've been on the prowl for a long time for a .22lr bolt action tube fed rifle.
Seems only the Marlin XT22 TR is available new now.
No other offerings.

I got a chance to fire an old Rem 512 years ago that was just awesome. Was not for sale unfortunately. It was by far just the coolest most fun .22 I've ever shot. Crazy long sight radius. Fast light balanced and clean lines.

Can any of you guys rattle me off some older classic models of .22lr bolt tubers so I can start trolling for an old used one on the EE and elsewhere?

Any help would he appreciated!

Marlin makes or made a nice one. They made basically 4 of them. Tube fed semi and bolt or mag fed tube or bolt. I have a mag fed bolt and my dad has the tube fed semi, both ducks unlimited guns, but good .22’s

Cooey 60, sold one recently for $150.
Great rifle.

Hopefully they will not become prohibs for holding more than 10 rounds, good luck in your search op.

I had a BSA Sportsman Fifteen a long time ago. Nothing exceptional, just a nice simple reliable rifle.

Forget new, find an old Mossberg tube fed, great old guns.

Them old Mossberg trainers are good shooting units...but expect to pay 350-400 for them. Nothing wrong with a Cooey 60 though.
I'll have to get a thread going on the 'Most mistreated and still shooting' and post the latest Cooey that came my way. It is ugly...still shoots good though. Amazing sharp rifling yet.

Oh I would believe that! I pulled a model 39 out of a gun show I thought was doomed for $40 bucks and got her sending bullets with 20 in parts, a quart of oil and a wire wheel! Lol

the old cooey model 60's are out there and shoot well with just about any ammo I just picked one up myself

Marlin 81DL with the aperture sight.

With CBs it is silent.

I've passed over them at gun shows before now that I've googled a pic of it.
What's the average asking price for one these days? I can't find any examples currently to get a ballpark idea.

I have a Cooey 600 , Winchester version of the 60. Might be a little pricey to scope out compared to others. But great firearm

Oh wow! That's a wicked little rifle too! I like the long tube. 20 .22lr
I just missed a mint one on the EE for $200. Fack!
I'm kind of settled on tracking a win 72 or a marlin 81.
Thanks for the tip Sir.

I mostly shoot irons brother. Are you looking to sell? Hit me with a PM if you are please.

 

[struff55]

A win 72 $300-$400 sometimes $250ish they are a bit of a sleeper

If whatever tube mag .22 you get is old and has in the past been stored with the mag full make certain that ALL of the rounds cycle through! Weakened mag springs have been known to leave one or two rounds in the tube even after multiple bolt cycles. And the followers are not red or orange!
