22LR Bolt Gun - Action Recommendations

My t1x is fantastic when it doesn't fail to feed

Yup, accurate, they feel good, but the mags suck and mine had constant feeding problems.

I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing it

I don’t remember since I got rid of mine a few years ago but it was either smashing the bullets into the bottom of the feed ramp, or they were going into the chamber at too steep of an angle making them hang up on the upper part of the chamber.

When it would FTF and is ejected the round, there would be a big gouge on the bullet.

Ruger Precision® Rimfire Bolt-Action Rifle Model 8401

I’ve had a couple of these.

I’ve seen them at my LGS used for under $400.

The CZ 457 Scout has worked really well for my daughter: I got it for her when she was six. She will turn nine this year. It comes with iron sights, which are minimalist. I put a red dot sight on it because that’s a lot easier for her.

My wife is pretty small, I got a ruger American rimfire and bought a compact stock piece for it. it works well for her.

Sometimes I wish id gotten her a cz scout but in reality, the ruger magazines are the best, the gun is accurate and it came all set up (rail for scope rings, 16" barrel, threaded barrel) and the price was good.

Good to hear. I just want something to teach fundamentals. Last thing I want is issues

T1x for me.
Have two mags without much issue.Its the wire ejection early model gun.
Just picked up 8 spare mags cheap so hopefully they do ok.
Waiting on a grey birch chassis to get here.

I have been trying to decide between the B 14r and the cz 457. I really like the looks of the varmint percision.

But the comments have definitely but the T1x in the mix. Haha

Anybody have a B-14R with the carbon barrel? I have a spare manners stock and an MDT bottom metal that I can use to build a lightweight trainer and was debating going with that option. RimX and Voodoo are out as I don’t have quite that much money to drop on a .22 if I want to have money for the suppressor.

Mine has never had a problem and I have multiple mags that I've used.

I’ve had great success with the 457.
A buddy has the B14.
He’s had some minor feeding (mag related) issues but nothing that should sway someone away.

The B14 was about $350 more when I bought the 457. That was a big factor for me.
I believe the CZ’s have narrows that gap.

He did have the bolt head break off the B14. But I think that Bergara has rectified that issue with the newer rifles.
I think he was at 10k rounds when it happened. So yes it did happen, but another thing that wouldn’t keep me from it if that works better for you.

Do sure grey birch use T1x mags?

I’d also be interested in the weight of the rifle in the chassis.

Thank you. That is good information to know and I appreciate your input.

Talking 22’s is fun.
