Since the sale of Winchester prices have sky rocketed because inventories are shrinking and they are no longer being produced. (at least that's what I have been told)
The Browning BL-22 is a great rifle but it will cost you anywhere from $400 to $750 depending on the variation you choose. Since you are going to buy 2 the price tag of ~ $1000 might be a problem.
I really like the Marlin 39A, unfortunately the price is just as high as the Browning. It shoots as well as the Browning and it looks good too. Both the Marlin and Browning are top of the line rifles and it's just about a coin flip between the two.
Henry makes a classic lever rifle and they look great with their Old West style. You can get a basic Henry .22 for about $230. They aren't as good as Marlin or Browning and the Henry trigger isn't great but they are in no way a bad rifle. I think the price is right especially since you are buying two that the Henry would be a reasonably choice. Nothing wrong with 2 of these http://www.henryrepeating.com/h001_leveraction.cfm for under $500...
