I owned an Anchutz Woodchuck imported by Savage that was a good rifle. The Woodchuck might be the S-A you guys were trying to remember. They are a neat little gun.
Best, Ed

Dovehunter, I have the 452 American in 22 WMR. Makes one very small ragged hole at 50 yards!!!! I have a buddy with the same rifle in 17 HMR, Same small ragged hole !!! They are awesome rimfires.

I have an old Remington 521. It might not be the prettiest ever made, but it will shoot with the best of them.

It depends
There have been a number of great .22 rifles and it depends on the preference of the shooter. I would vote for the Remington Model 581 bolt action. Tkae care...

I have an old Winchester 52 that is a very accurate rifle (pre-A), but a little heavy. I currently am shooting a Ruger 77/22 that I did a little work on. It will get those ground squirrels as far away as I can see them. I bought my two grandsons a pair of CZ's a couple years ago. They are a very accurate rifle. All of them are good. Just keep shooting them.

threads about "The Best" anything are hard to respond to. I really think that most guns are pretty good, but whether my choice is the best, I'm not so sure.
That said, the bolt .22 that I like the most, is my old 1948 Remington 521T. It is a reliable squirrel killer out to 50 yards. ![]()

![]() This is the BEST 22 MAG rifle I've ever owned. It shoots 5 shots into a quarter (.25 cents) at 75 yards when I do my part. Marlin model 882L Simmons scope model 44 MAG 2x - 7X is clear and bright TR |

My vote is for the 1950's Winchester Model 52 Spoter. However, they now sell for $1,500 +
The Kimber and Cooper .22 rifles are awfully nice, but somewhat pricey. Today, the best buy is probably the Ruger 10-22 Heavy-Barrel. Mine is very accurate, and ideal for squirrel hunting. gold40 |
