Remington 40x RF sporter. Just joking. If you think the 52's are high....
I'll second or third the motion on Rem 500 series. Had shot them but never appreciated them when I was younger. Bought a 512 a few years back & I still can't believe how much I enjoy it. Bought a 1953 model 550-1 last year. Kind of a bulky looking semiauto. But it had purdy wood, a Williams peep, it was made in my birth year. and......... it was $210 out the door. If most semi auto 22's made knew this gun they would hang their head in shame over its accuracy & dependability.
Nylon 66's are a blast, & again, their dependability makes all other semi auto's pale.
The icing for the cake? Get on ammoseek.com & have a look at current 22 RF pricing. It hasn't been this good for 15 years.
Don't overlook some of the modern examples, CZ for instance. Think good scopes with fine x hairs & adj. parallax. Over the years some fine 22's have been downgraded by folks installing a... " it's just a 22, any old scope will do". This is usually far worse than feeding one crappy ammo.
