Old school Rem 121 Fieldmaster. The Fieldmaster was my first real firearm. I sold it to my brother back in the 1990s. He still has it.

Tube fed bolt actions are the best. Agreed. Back in the 70’s my cousin had a Glenfield-badged Marlin 25 that we shot a lot. Haven’t seen one in years. I did find a Marlin magazine-fed version but hand-loading the mag was a pain. Still keeping an eye out for the tube fed version.

This 10-22 takedown probably gets used the most. Feature ridden.

Next, and my most accurate, is the old Remington 521T bolt rifle. A great, great rifle.

That seems to be the exception to the rule. My CZ 527 6.5 Grendel doesn’t shoot great either. I’m not sure if I got two bad ones or what. I really like the rifles but both hold around 1.5 MOA.

Evnin gents, my most accurate 22 is a rem 581 left hand. Bought it in the 60s along with a rem 788 in 6mm. Only have the 581 now. The action is threaded & has a bbl off of a win 52 target with a Burris 3-9 mini with the extra cross hairs. Very acurrate!!! Just a smidge more accurate than my new t1x left hand. Oops I have the grand kids tc or smith & Wesson break open 22, all 3-1/2 lbs of it. Wished I had that when trapping all those yrs ago. 22s are usually our first rifle & are remembered fondly just like our first girlfriend. Oh crap, still got Dads old cooey single shot. Lots of rats & beaver, some otter & fisher too died from a well placed bullet. Dad filed the trigger on it, no it's not safe but if ya only load it to shoot it's just a little tickle. GWP. 🐾👣🐾👣🇨🇦

Always wanted a Remington m12 gallery 22. I had a winchester m61 I liked. Another one of those regrets. I let it go.

Remington 541-S That I bought new in about ‘78. I’m still figuring out what ammo a Remington 547 likes best. I put one of my CMP 40-Xs in a beautiful fiddleback, varmint type stock and it’s really fun watching the bullets drop into the target when I shoot it at 100 yards.

Old school Rem 121 Fieldmaster. The Fieldmaster was my first real firearm. I sold it to my brother back in the 1990s. He still has it. Was my first too. My grandparents owned a small farm in Lipan TX, and I roamed every acre of it with my 121. Looked exactly like your picture. Many a fond memory. Funny story: Once took my sister for a tour around Ma & Pa's place. Saw an Armadillo and took a shot at it as it was scampering off. Shot the poor things nose completely off. The bugger started doing backflips and running in circles. Put on quite the show until I could dispatch him with another shot. Ruined my poor Sis as a hunter. She kept yelling OMG, OMG, poor thing! (Never to go hunting again for her)

Man what a tough question
I think there are atleast 10 ways to answer
I think it depends on the mood and what you are doing that day
So many cool 22s From 79 bucks to unlimited A Browning A bolt To a CZ To a Begara To a 39 To a model 60 And don’t forget the king of modifications the good old 10-22 Hank
Thank You Lord for another day,Help my Brother along the way
