The 9422 is a traditional looking lever action with exposed hammer. It looks quite like a model 94 .30-30 until you notice the small ejection port and slip tube magazine.
I have not ever shot a 250 so I can't answer that question accurately.
I have owned and shot a semi auto Winchester 490 and a couple or three 94/22s and the lever guns always shot better than that semi auto! Fed better too.
My first repeating rifle was a model 250. It shot sub inch at 50 yards with rem. gold hps.and 4x weaver scope. Never shot a 9422 but my friend stayed right with my groups with 9422M. Have fun and bangaway.
The 9422 was one of the finest lever-action .22 rifles ever made for the first 15-20 years of it's production.
Unfortunately, it was made from 1972 till 2005 on the same machinery.
There toward the end the tooling was worn out, and quality suffered.
The Model 250 (Made 1965 - 1971) was a product of the "make them cheap and sell them at more profit" business model Winchester adopted before it went bankrupt.
The Winchester 94/22 is one of the best made lever action 22s ever. The Marlin 39A is in the same league. The Winchester 490, mentioned above is a very well made (Canadian Cooey) semi auto rifle. You don't find semi autos with steel receivers and walnut stocks very often.
