A lot of the old rimfires had long barrels and shot very well.

I shoot new iron and love the old rifles also. Have a lot of both.
I'm kinda short, as people were around the early 1900's. The ergonomics of the old firearms work well for me. That little 33, made in 1933, just melts into place. Had a Remington model 14 in 35 Remington, that felt the same way. I don't think a computer designed firearm gets it right. They don't feel as good.
