There's a lot of very nice rimfire's here. Thanks to everyone that has shared with stories and pictures. I'm still holding strong to keeping the one I mentioned in the op, but there's also one that I forgot to mention, since others have mentioned rifles with sentimental value. I have to bring up my dads Mossberg chuckster 22 WMR. While it looks new, my dad did his best to wear this rifle out when he was a kid. I'm serious. I had to replace a lot of parts on this rifle, from extractor, ejector, trigger, various springs and I also upgraded the iron sights. Its a cool little rifle and I actually used it in my clubs rimfire matches back before I bought my model 52 and the savage target rifles I have now:

One target that I will never forget is one I shot with that rifle. Not because it was a "possible", but because it was a stupid mistake on my part. I fired off the first shot and it was high and to the right, so I made an adjustment with the sights and then just fired off 9 more shots without looking through the spotter:

It was during a rimfire match my club was putting on about 5 years ago. It was a good learning experience for me. That rifle will put them all in the 10 ring, if I don't screw it up... Its a great shooting old 22 magnum that I will keep for the rest of my life.
