22's can be a crap shoot.. in your price points I would say an Anschutz, Winchester 52, or Remington 40X used. For a basic rifle with money for good glass the CZ 452 is hard to beat. Mine with ammo it likes, will do under 1/2" for 10 shots at 50 yards regularly. Just got a Remington 541S, will see what it will do.
