My favorite is my Kimber of Oregon in Left Hand . This is one of the most accurate 22 rifles i have owned. This rifle loves the CCI Mini-Mag HP'S . The scope is Leupold 6x42 Target or Tactical with the Mil-Dot Reticule and AO, this scope is great on this rifle . This is one great rifle for Squirrel Hunting . ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v378/bea175/Mod82Kimber2.jpg)

I dont know if I can narrow it down to just 1..........
I LOVE my Winchester 61 & 62A, but my Kimber Super America is accurate as hell and good lookin. But my Remington 121 is just a classic part of Remington history. My CZ452 is kind my "go to" hunting rig, accurate and if it gets a mark on it no big deal.
And I dont even want to talk about my other 22's. Hell there all my favs!

My 581-S
Yes its cheap, plain and uhhh very accurate.
The favorite I don't have is a Cooper Jackson squirrel rifle, but I have a hunch the 581 will still get used more as I'll be afraid to scratch the Cooper!

Those 581's were really accurate with a super trigger. At least all I ever shot were.

I had the Left Hand 541 and had it re barreled with a 18 inch heavy barrel . I gave this rifle to my son. Tractor and Trailer couldn't haul all the stuff i killed with this rifle. I purchased this rifle in the 70's. I gave it to him for his birthday last year. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v378/bea175/581Rem2.jpg)

1960 Marlin 39A Mountie, in second place is my M52B repro.
Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!

My 10/22 is very similar: Green Mountain 20" fluted SS barrel, Hogue stock, Kidd trigger, Weaver 2x7 scope. Number 2 is probably my '69 Marlin 39M. Number 3 is probably my ZKM 452D.

I've got Winchesters in a 67, 94-22 classic, 62A, and 06. A 10-22 compact, Sako Finnfire, Marlin 39 Mountie, and a Weatherby MK XX11. The Weatherby is my all time favorite. But this is like asking which is your favorite child!....I LOVE 'em ALL!!! (grin!)

Didn't know anyone else had Rem 581's! I bought one new in 1975 and Just traded it in 2 months ago on a Rem 597 TVP SS. (needed a semi). Not worth much but real accurate--I had trigger down to about 3lb, Had it set up with Williams iron target sights front and rear
Heres a tip on 581's--it's easy to put an overtravel screw in the back of the trigger guard--just drill and tap and put in a small allen screw.
But, it's gone now--gunshop i traded it to gave it to the local gun club for the Boy Scouts to use for target work so it went for a good cause

In the class of 22 sporters, I have three favorites. First is a Ruger 10-22 with a trigger job, a Hart 22" sporter barrel, and a Claude Gatewood stock. Don't have a pix of the full up rifle, but here's a pix of the stock. This rifle shoot a 5 shot group with RWS R-100 at 50 yards that measures 1/4". ![[Linked Image]](http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb37/Donald4802/GatewoodClassic10-22Stock.jpg) Second is a custom built Sako Finnfire with a Hart barrel, and a Jewell 2 oz trigger. It's the most accurate 22 sporter I've ever shot; it'll shoot 5 shots into a 1/8" group at 50 yards, using Eley Match ammo.. James Messer built the rifle, and it is without doubt, one of the most accurate sporters available. Third is a CZ 452 Premier grade 22, with excellent wood. It shot 5 shots at 50 yards into a 3/16" group, unmodified except for a trigger fix. This with Wolf Match Target ammo sorted by weight and rim thickness. Don

I have two safes that are full of .22 rifles, 30-40 guns. My favorite is a Kimber Super America. No. 2 is an unfired Remington 121.
