Here's another smile maker... A Savage Model 1922 .22 cal. bolt gun. They were only made for about a year, as they were the transition model between the earlier model 19 series and the soon to be introduced model 23 series. The model 19 guns included some of the best known 22 target rifles of that era and this one seems to carry on that reputation even though it's not a target gun, although it's drilled & tapped for a receiver sight. It's also chambered in 22 Long Rifle only, ( instead of short, long, & long rifle like a lot of older 22's are ). It probably shoots better than I can and if it had a good scope I'm sure it would be a real tack driver. This coming spring I'd like to test different ammo in it and decide what to feed it on a regular basis. Never did much formal testing with this one as it seems to shoot great no matter what I put in it. Be interesting to see if it has ammo preferences.
Plenty of pics for this one here on the computer.
