.22/.22 Mag Rifles

I like my savage 93 22 mag 18 inch barrel and silcencer central banish 22 can
 
My main squirrel rifle is a Ruger 10/22 in a French walnut stock with a 20” barrel. It has a Vortex Diamondback HP 4-12x42 in Leupold mounts on it. It will put 10 shots in a nickel at 50 yards where it’s zeroed with CCI mini mags hollow points. It’s probably a 1.25 MOA rifle but I’ve not broke out the calipers or anything.

My preferred “truck gun” is a Marlin 922M 22 mag with a Nikon Prostaff 3-9x40 shooting 40 grain hollow points. It kills at out of its class. It will put 7 shots into the 1.5” at 100 yards.

My favorite, but my baby, is a Win 94/22M checkered stocked 22 mag. It is using a Tasco World Class scope from the late 90’s that has good optics. It shoots 40 grain hollow points around 1.5” at 100 yards.
 
Still prefer my Marlin 39 Mountie. Bought it on an estate sale, it wouldn’t eject reliably. Cleaned it well tightened the screws internally and tweaked the ejector. Runs like a top and shoots dimes at 50yds. Great to carry in the woods.
 
A22mag and Marlin model 60, same one I would hunt squirrels with before I got on the bus to go to middle school.
 
We’ve used a savage rascal, CZ 457 scout, Ruger precision rimfire, but the family favorite is a 10/22 with a suppressor and the magpul stock.
 
Good old 10/22 that I got carried away with upgrading. Don't let anyone tell you semi-autos can't be accurate. This thing drills with cheap CCI subsonic.PXL_20241020_131841004.jpg
 
Our main small game rifle is our bergera bmr with a leupold 2-7 rimfire. But I’m considering replacing it with something that takes ruger 10/22 mags since all of our other 22s utilize them.

Bergara BMR .22 wmr is a tack driver. It goes everywhere with me around the property. Varmits, coyotes, no problems. Head shot on pigs, DRT. It’s become a favorite of mine. I put that throw in suppressor Silencerco offered during that buy one get one free sale and it’s hearing safe.
 
T1x with a swfa 6 x and suppressor it is a hoot with standard velocity rounds. I also have a 10/22 with a Burris 3-9. I have my granddad single shot and my great uncle’s marlin 39. I enjoy them all in their own way.

They do shoot amazing. I want to get one in 22 mag. The different magazine won’t bother me since the mags would be different in a ruger anyways.
 
CZ 512 in 22 Mag with an optic I installed. So much fun to shoot and a tack driver.
