.22 Rifle

[Biefnes]

I'm looking to get a .22 because the price of bullets has become so expensive and I was wondering which of these guns you think is the best for accuracy and overall.

I am mostly looking for the most accurate gun and I've heard that the marlin 60 is very accurate but I just don't like the fact that its tube fed. I know its easy to load just not fun like a clip. Also if you know of any good panoramic red dot sights for a .22 could you please give me a brand name or model? Thanks a lot for your time.

I've never had a Marlin that was not a pretty accurate rifle. Of those you listed my preference would be the Model 60. I like tube feds on 22's. A red dot sight will get you on target but not with the precision and small grouping that you can get with a decent optical scope.

Which is Best?

The weapons listed down here are all good in their own way. It all depends on what you feel comfortable with. I usually try to match my 22 with my larger hunting rifle so the transition is almost nothing, except for recoil. ha ha!
But like all firearms, each will have it's preference in ammunition, so go buy a small box of what in your local sporting goods store, sand bag the rifle and find which ammo is most accurate, then go have fun.
