I'm getting bored of 99's, lets get a rimfire thread going, it's been a long winter.
So whatcha got for rimfires? Any pics? Who needs what? What ammo ya using? etc..etc....etc.....
My 1904 and 1905:
My 1911, 1909 and 1912:
My model 25 and 29:
My model 19-33 and 7: Finally found a hood and post for my front sight on my model 7 on Ebay so it's all original again. That 19-33 is probably the single most accurate rifle I've ever owned.

Still waiting for Todd to need parts for something so I can get that "automatic" mag off him for that 1912.
Missed out on a model 63M (mannlicher stock) in 22mag last weekend in an auction but I low balled it and didn't think I'd get it anyways. I bid $150 it sold at $200. To much for a single shot rimfire in my books.
I'm guessin ya want old guns here and not something like the Mark II-GL I bought for the niece to use. Started her shooting scoped 10/22, 1927 Marlin 39 with 17 front and Win 96 rear, 1929 Winchester M52 with factory Lyman sights. She loved the M52 but really too heavy for her, so...
2008 purchase, installed Lee Shaver Lyman 17 style front sight with level (after pic was taken), early 1970's Redfield No. 22RN Sharp-Shooter receiver sight in receiver grooves. Man does she shoot it well for a new shooter.
Good idea, this. In fact I'd like to see a sticky for pumps and one for bolt guns. Am I missing anything? Attached are pics of the top to bottom, I think: 23A, 23B, 1920, Model 29 and Model 1909. Missing are a pic of a 1925. Still looking for a 1914.

Here is my MK II 22 LR. It is a shooter.with win.xpert leadheads, it will put 5 rounds in 1 ragged hole at 50 yds as long as I do my part. This is my first savage rimfire but I have 3 of their centerfires. All are accurate to a fault.

Have you had a problem with this feeding? The one I purchased for my boy has the longer mag it feeds the first 5 fine after that the mag has to be help forward for the last 3 to feed. I thought maybe I would buy a 5 shot mag and see how it does. Thanks Chris
