Looking for a good bolt action that has an action which is easy to load 22 shorts into , contemplated getting an air rifle but I don't have a nice 22 bolt so figured I'd go this way , I had a browning a-bolt but the chamber face was too far recessed to easily load 22 shorts one at a time.
Any suggestions out there as to which bolt action has an easily accessible chamber face which allows easy loading of 22 shorts ??
Looking for something decent, browning, bruno , sako anschutz etc
Thanks
 
Easiest to load would be like a break barrel single shot. If you got a thumb like mine...Most bolt actions, even mag fed ones will be too small to single load.

Alot of tube fed 22's can accept 22 shorts. Like Henry, Marlin XT 22 TR
 
CB Longs are the shortest I shoot, I don't like how lead shavings spray out of the gas port on .22 actions when using shorts

\Check 47Products. com for single shot loading

or Nordic Marksman http://www.nordicmarksman.com/Single-Shot-Adapter.html

That's cool, thanks for that

I have a 22 short competition pistol so I have lots of shorts, and a really old Winchester single shot I use for barn duty that is easy to load shorts into , but was hoping for something nice I could use as my primary 22lr and still be able to load shorts into easy one at a time if need be, they are so quiet, like a bb gun

My savage mk11 cycles and feeds from the 5 round mags flawlessly. However theres quieter ammo out there such as cci quiet and aguila colibri
I do like cci short 27gr copperwash hp. About perfect for bunnies and squirrel.
