I have several 22 rifles to choose from but none of them are dedicated range guns, they are are pencil barrels.... Czs, savages, and Marlins

I'm wanting a new rifle just for range work, rifle will not be hunted with, only used to punch paper and what not. Looking to spend 550-600$ What's out there in that price range? Would like a Cooper but a little outta my range for now.

I could live with another CZ but before I pull the trigger. What else is out there I should be looking at? Kimber? Annie's? Used?

Kimber 82g is about the only significant target rifle I can think of in that price range.

I'm not looking for an actual target rifle. Just a heavy barrel varmint style that's gonna be accurate and nice to look at

You said you could live with another CZ. If so; the CZ 455 Varmint model 22LR fits your price range (MSRP $469). Or the CZ 455 Varmint Thumbhole Fluted with a varmint profile fluted barrel in 22LR at $549 MSRP. They look sharp, are very accurate, and fit your budget. Only problem is I don't know how long it takes to get one. I've had the Varmint Thumbhole Fluted on order since the beginning of July and still don't know when I might see it. Dealer I ordered it from is an old friend I've known over 20 years; and he can't even tell me when that thing should arrive. You can see 'em on CZ's web site to decide if they're nice to look at.

Got it.

I was in the same boat 30 years ago. Found a Winchester 75 target.
They are lighter than other target guns and make a fine sporter with a good hunting scope ......

you might find a H&R M12 in that price range if you shop around.
