Great .22 RIFLES for Shooting and Collecting

[@c.j.rogers2422]

As far as I am concerned, you can cover fine classic, and especially obscure, 22s ad infinitum, and it would suit me just fine! I don't believe I've ever watched one of your videos without learning. Thank you!

[@UnitedStatesOfGuns]

Thank you C.J. - I'll keep going!

[@TheRidgerunner1959]

.22s are all the fun without the recoil and cost, I love them!

[@mattmills5145]

Without cost? You obviously haven’t priced ammo recently.

[@TheRidgerunner1959]

@@mattmills5145 still a lot cheaper than center fire ammo, but yes, not cheap as it was.

[@winfieldholbrook5167]

It’s nice to see the old plinksters. All gun collectors grew up learning how to shoot and to hunt with a 22. They are addictive.

[@tacocin]

Absolutely LOVE the .22 videos! Fascinating caliber I have much respect for. I've added a few classics to my collection after watching your videos. I inherited a Score Master from my Dad and love it!

[@joetruth5924]

I inherited a Model 511P when I was a teenager. Did a lot of plinking with shorts and longs with it. I saved my long rifles for squirrel hunting. I ran the serial number and it was made in 1938. When I got it the stock needed refinishing which I did with boiled linseed oil. I also replaced the butt plate which was cracked and picked up a few more magazines as well from an obsolete gun parts place. About twenty years ago I mounted a good 4X scope on it and sighted it in at 50 yards with CCI Stingers. It is still a tack driver. I take it crow hunting to pick off cripples after I down them with my shotgun. It always does the job and keeps me from getting out of the blind while more crows are circling. Carrying it takes me back to my youth. Great video as always, Happy New Year.

[@drummer0864]

Brownell's has brand new mags for these 511's and they look and feel like OEM. Haven't had any issues with feeding either. I even got a ten-round mag for it.

[@joetruth5924]

Gil guns are my favorite rifles

[@paulkoch9871]

My first rifle I bought used for $50, was a Remington Scoremaster 511X in 1972. I had to refinish the stock as it was dented up pretty bad. But it shoots tight groups and has taken eastern woodchucks by the dozen. I still have it, and it's still a tack driver.

[@johnmckenna8989]

...Very nice video.....When I was 14 my Dad bought me a US 44 from a neighbour...That .22 is the most accurate .22 shooter ever made in my opinion (I've had several others).....I would set white picnic spoons on the 100 yard fence and 'hole' them one after the other using the stock Mossberg aperture sights...Drove my son crazy as I taught him marksmanship....I'm 75 now and my eyes won't have any of that anymore, but I keep that old 1940's .22....It loved Federal Eagle .22's back in the day.....

[@tangero3462]

Love that Scoremaster, reminds me of the Winchester 69. Remington's 514 single shot is also superb

[@ChrisKrossAs]

Thanks Mike! I’m 24 and love your content, we share the same love for classic wood furniture as well. Hope your Christmas was merry and your new year a prosperous one.

[@3ducs]

I've collected a number of interesting older .22s, they usually don't cost very much, though the Winchester 1890s can get quite pricy. Winchester Model 69s are good and come in several iterations. Those Remington "5-teens" are very collectable, there is even a smoothbore version or two. Not all .22s are 10-22s!

[@Rhythmicons]

I have my grandfather's Winchester 69 and it is one of the best shooters I have encountered.

[@CumberlandOutdoorsman]

I started collecting the "5-teens" several years ago. I now own the 510 "Targetmaster", the 511 "Scoremaster", the 512 "Sportsmaster", and the 513 "Matchmaster". All pretty much the same bolt action design other than magazine types, and stock configurations. I also own four Remington 581 rifles, and in my opinion the 580 series rifles are probably the best bolt action rimfire designs. Fast lock-time, super strong locking actions, advanced trigger design, a short bolt handle operation, full sized stocks, and superior accuracy are all great attributes to this line of rifles.

[@mikebeddingfield2144]

I have a mossberg 22 fetish i have 4 at this point one was a traning rifle made for the British to train new recruits in ww2 and never sold in the United states and another that is a smooth bore with different barrel attachments to add rifling or a rat shot attachment, it's a interesting hobby that renders much enjoyment and frustration with a bit of treasure hunting when you are needing parts.

[@natural-born_pilot]

I own several 22 rifles and even competed on a small bore team in the military. One of the most beautiful and accurate 22’s I’ve ever fired was a 1936 Mauser 22 small bore my father brought back from the war. He gave it to me when I was a kid and I still have it. It’s in beautiful condition and worth much more than my collection of other 22’s put together.

[@drichi07]

The first rifle I ever shot at 5 years old was my dad's Remington 510 Targetmaster, a single shot version of the Scoremaster, I believe. It is still back home, well used and probably not of collecter interest, but it is of great value to me.

[@jamesdietz6899]

This was my first rifle, as well. I believe it was made in 1946 or 1947. I received it in the early 1960s. I used it for my Boy Scout training, if I remember correctly. My son had it sitting in his closet (no wonder I could not find it!) until a couple of years ago. He started shooting it with the iron sights, and it is still super accurate. I was envious of him having it, so I recently bought another one at auction. We have yet to pit them head-to-head, but I look forward to the challenge.

In the mid 1960s I was on the Jr ROTC rifle team in high school in Georgia and we were issued the Remington rifles but it was too long ago to remember the model numbers. May well have been the 511. I doubt many public high schools have rifle teams these days which is a shame.

[@robertthorn9560]

What school did you go to? I went to GMC in the late 60s(67-72) and the 22 we shot was heavy as hell, I think they were Winchesters target models. I grew up with Remington 514, still have it, a very accurate rifle and put it up against any target rifle.

[@martyadams3915]

My brother had a sporting goods store for just over 20 years and came in contact with some fine .22 rifles. My favorite was probably the Remington 541t in the bdl custom deluxe pkg and bull barrel. He put a Leopold verix 3 3x9 50 mm scope on itband we sighted it at 40 yards with .22 CB's. Although it was almost scary to carry into the woods due to it's beauty that was exactly what he got the gun for. It was unreal deadly medicine for squirrels. Very quite and the accuracy was unmatched by anything we had old or new including the old single shot Target master Remington rifles that had always been at the top of the heap and the marlin micro groove .22's that are way overlooked in the accuracy department. A great gun and it will always be a classic from the day it was made.

I restored a Scoremaster someone gave me. They are great rifles that just feel right in the hand and shoot like a US made .22 should.

Great rifle to restore - not that many of those rifles around and people are either forgetting or were not aware of how fine the Scoremaster is.

Had a few .22s....Stirling bolt action....BRNO Mod2.....and now a Lithgow LA101 which to me is as good as it gets.

When it comes to prices I think it is important for people to keep in mind that you live in Canada, and that your prices are not necessarily reflective of the American market. Also, when it comes to gun auction websites prices can go absolutely crazy and are not necessarily reflective of what a gun store may sell a particular gun at. Fair deals are out there, but one must look to come across them, to not fall in love with a gun before purchasing it, to know what the selected gun is worth relative to its condition and to the actual market, and to actually be willing to walk away. For me a fair deal doesn't just include the price, but how much time, energy, and effort a particular gun may take to find again if one is to pass on it. Some guns are so rare or hard to find that they may not be on the market for decades or never again in our lifetimes. For .22 rifles I just keep saying that people shouldn't overlook them. Heck, the reality is that there are just so many great and iconic .22's out there, and they are just a hoot to shoot. Anyways, have a Happy New Year!!!

.22's are some of my favorites!! Do you have any CZ .22's? My CZ 457 Premium is my favorite one.
