    CZ do a 22 that would be hard to go past imho as well.

    Remmy are crap fullstop regardless.
    Ruger 10/22 are rubbish unless you remove everything Ruger from them and fit the likes of Volquartsen etc.
    Tell that to the countless thousands of pests that died because I used 10/22 most of the 31 years I was on the Pest Boards .As said they may not be the most accurate but as a functional pest control rifle they are hard to beat, mine is still stock standard and shoots well enough for me.

    Reliability and minute of (chest with any pick of animal) for accuracy matters only for pest control. I used one for a while it was good enough. Never bought one though cos at time it seemed like everyone was buying 10/22 I had to be a little different. Happy with my 795. Up to recently running unmodified. Shortened for suppressor and modded for subs. Ran a dream on HV ammo.
