Am I the only one who likes to shoot 22 rimfires made of wood and metal? MB

I don't think you are, unless you're talking about some special kind of "metal".

I only have two. My favorite is the one I received from Dad upon his passing, a Mod. 74 Winchester. I like my CZ 455-FS but compared to my Mannlicher/Schoenauers it's a club of a full stock rifle, way too much wood in the forestock.

Well I do have a rimfire with an aluminum receiver, a Glenfield 60 with the birchwood squirrel stock, and a Ruger Mark II Target with plastic grips, and a Taurus 94 stainless with rubber grips. But my two main rifles, a Marlin 39M and a Marlin 883 are blued steel and walnut.

I let my oldie, a Remington 121, get away a few years ago. That was a great one, with a 25" lightweight barrel, handled like a wand and was an ideal open sights rifle.

1947 Marlin 39.

Would a 1968 Ruger 10/22 with walnut stock and metal trigger group count?

Yup if your good with it, heck a lot of old wood and metal Winchesters and Remingtons had plastic buttplates which of course were the first parts to crap out. From the replies I guess I'm not the only one who likes shooting vintage 22's on here. Damn they are fun. MB

The K22 was also made in 1946

Not as old but my 452 also fills the classic wood and blue steel bill IMO.

BTW......the M39 has a plastic butt plate

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

All of mine are wood and metal: a Ruger 10/22 purchased in the early 1980s, a Winchester 9422 from the early 1990s, a CZ 455 acquired a few years ago and a new Browning SA-22 that a hunting buddy gave me last fall.

There were more than 12 million sold, so I'm not that surprised. My coworker has one to match as well. There are variations though, in the action screws, the magazine capacity. Ect.

Yep. I was out shooting my recently acquired Browning BL22 today. Others include a 1936 vintage Rem M34 and a 1927 vintage 22/32 Hand Ejector.
