Anyone familiar with this model of semi-auto 22 rifle (accuracy & reliability)? I found one, in unused condition, at an out of the way gun shop. The dealer wanted $100, tax included. I was able to work the action and give it a good visual going over and everything seemed good. Any opinions or information would be appreciated.
Nuff said,

I got one back in the 70s. They are kind of a plane Jane 22, but mine has been very reliable with CCI Mini Mags. Accuracy is about like a typical 10/22. For a hundred bucks I would buy it.
A little side note, I would not fire the super high velocity stuff such as CCI stingers in it though. A buddy bought one about the same time he feed it a steady diet of them and his barrel came loose from the aluminum receiver after a few years.

I bought one back in 1970 when I was 14. Actually, my mother bought it for me using money I'd earned as a field hand. It was my first gun. I still have it and love it. I'd spend $100 on another in a minute. It's a plain Jane gun, but accurate and reliable. I've been looking for another on Gunbroker. They usually go for around $130 there.
