Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires What rimfire would you never get rid of?

Handgun - Ruger MK-II slab-side. 2nd choice would be the Ruger SR22.
Rife: Rem M541T. 2nd choice would be (hunting/varmint) Savage MK-II blue/laminated or (SHTF ) Ruger 10-22.

Never thought I'd ever own a Savage, but this little MK-II is incredibly accurate and fun to shoot..

Have 50+ rimfire and couldn’t think of parting with any of them.

Browning Belgium made sa-22 1968 vintage I think

A High Standard Sentinel that was the first gun I ever shot

None of mine. Nope not even one. Wife/children can deal with them when I've crossed the big river.

I have the single shot version of your 320, the Win 310. They are sweet rifles.

My very first gun that my parents gave me on my 8th birthday, a Remington 580. Got several others I love, but that one is going to a loved friend or family member when I die.

My uncle's m62 Winchester he bought in the 30s by selling pulpwood he cut with a two man saw.

Japan made Winchester Mod 52 heavy barrel made for Zander Sporting Goods

My old Anschutz 54 Sporter. I have a Anschutz 1710HB that will slightly outshoot it, but the 54 was purchased new by my father in the 70's so there's sentimental value as well.

Either of my Remington 5mm Magnums.

The 591M is ~98% with a period Redfield Widefield Low-Profile 3-9

The 592M wears a 4.5-14 Burris Fullfield II and is no a beauty queen. But it shoots the first run Centurion ammo exceptionally well. I've notched 'chucks way out there with it and know it'll go farther. Personal best, to date, is 280 yards.

Another keeper is a flat gate Ruger Single Six my son gifted me at Christmas. He had gotten it from a friend, the original factory grips were broken beyond repair. I fit these ebony grips, installed Ruger medallions and had it checkered. Guns like that aren't trading inventory. Besides it's very accurate, trigger is really good.

Probably my Remington Mod37 that I bought from Mike Walker. He built it the way he wanted it while he was runningt the xcustom shop.

I'm embarrassed to say that I have one of these and I have never shot it. I ran across one at a local gun store, great condition, only one little safe ding. I think I paid 640 for it, thought it was a fair deal and took it home.

While my 1949 model 52 takes the cake for "fun to shoot" because you get a sense of extraordinary quality, my Savage MKI FVT single shot takes a close second. I'll admit, I think the savage is every bit as accurate as the old winchester. One of the reasons I recently bought a MKII FVT target rifle. I've been cleaning up with the single shot at my clubs know your limits shoots with the single shot savage. The rifle is a shooter. With the right ammo, it will drive tacks. At 50 yards, those 1/4" targets don't seem so hard to hit with the savage. We've had guys from other clubs join in the fun and those guys are using souped up rifles that are known for exceptional accuracy, but none of them shoot on par with the Savage. I'm hoping my new Savage shoots as well as the single shot MKI:



I'll drop it into a laminated stock, like I did with the MKI pictured above^^^^^

All I have I would hate to part with the 2 52s are amazing but they would go before the Ruger boat paddle. And probbly the bearcat. My kids all learned to shoot wit those and now the grand kids are comming up on themp

My VUDOO, don’t think I have ever enjoyed a gun this much! Everything else seems to stay in the safe now.

My Freedom Arms model 97. 5/-1/2 inch barrel.

Marlin model 97 Cowboy with octagon barrel, buckhorn sights.....purchased it new through a good friend that owned a sporting goods store.....he let me order anything at his cost due to our friendship......he passed from Pacreatic Cancer, was a good man, miss his laughter.



Frog----out!

I enjoy my .22s more than any other arms that I own. Choosing just one would be difficult and painful. I such a choice had to be made, I guess I would keep a James Anderson custom 22 made from a Brno Model 1.
