Choices, choices.

Ok so I guess I need to make my intentions a little more clear. Im not looking for a serious target shooter, any target shooting will be recreational/some folks pulling out their very accurate squirrel guns and having a good friendly competition. Im not spending $1000, much less 5k, on this so I KNOW its not going to be anything amazing. What I am looking for is a very accurate bolt or auto-loader .22LR(preferably one of the 3 ive mentioned for price and function reasons) that is no more than $500-600.

Im not looing for a match shooter, and I definitely want repeating action so no single shot.

Keep your eyes open for a BRNO. I had one that shot better than my Sako Finnfire. I got it for $200 .

fwiw,
I'd concur with most of the advice you are getting. It seems, respectively, that you want an accomplice and not advice. I've been there, however, realize you are pigeonholing yourself before you spend the money. There are better rifles for the money. I'd personally consider that CZ as well...fwiw & imho

Regards, Matt.

The way I see it, im not getting very much advice on my actual question, mostly alternatives to my proposal. Maybe my proposal isnt ideal.......thats fine give me multiple options and why they are better/why my options arent as good. Ive had a little feedback about the 10/22, a couple people including yourself have nods towards the CZ but nobody has mentioned the Savage. Its hard for me to tell if this is because of a lack of experience with the Savage so nobody knows, or if its a terrible rifle so people are discounting it immediately. Im going to make my own decision, but im looking for more opinions and advice so that I can make a more educated decision. And the people throwing out a wildcard isnt helping much because thats 1 person so their example of that rifle might be one of the best where 95% of the rest that were/are made are junk, im looking more for a concensus.

I really do appreciate all of your opinions so far. Thanks

This is Benchrest.com . You will tend to get answers from people that are interested in accurate rifles.

[newtron63h]

Which is exactly why I am here. I am looking for feedback and advice on what I asked, and if there are better options im open to them. but a simple "get X, Y, or Z rifle, they are better than A, B, and C" isnt really helping. How are they better? What are the shortcomings of A, B, and C? Does anyone else have any experience with X, Y or Z?

[SGJennings]

And that's what I'm explaining. None of the rifles that you are asking about are accurate in the context of benchrest.

I happened to know a little about the 10/22 from a previous life.

You'd get more information on the kind of rifle that you want on http://www.rimfirecentral.com .

OK, so what im picking up is that since these rifles are not suitable for benchrest, then most people HERE dont know much about them, or even other rifles in that class. That makes more sense, although I kinda figured that there would be some overlap but I guess not. Thank you for directing me to a more suitable place to find the information i seek.

[SGJennings]

That is more or less what I'm telling you. I hope that you find some good info over there.

[newtron63h]

Thanks all of the guidance, I really appreciate it.

With the three rifles you listed, they are all equal. No one here can tell you what one will shoot best. You could buy 3 of each one and still not know what brand was the more accurate rifle. Ammo has as much to do with this as anything. The rifles you are interested in are all production made rifles, so in my mind its a crap shoot. Pick the one that feels the best to you and buy it. if it doesnt shoot well enough, sell it any try something else. If i were you, and from what you have stated, i think i would try to find a nice used rem 40x . Lee
