Nice Muzza - never had a Norinco semi. There is certainly a real place for fast shooting super accurate 22 semiautos - especially on high bunny volume sites.
This semiauto was my best - of maybe 30 or so of different makes. It's a Marlin 60DL - superbly accurate with four consecutive group average of 0.29" at 50m, and bloody good at 100m too. Genuine little sniper to shoot with - if you missed it was you! Gave it to my 16 year old (after he'd done many years shooting apprenticeship) and on first night after getting his licence he nailed 172 rabbits! Beat his old man..
Currently running wee Marlin 795SS semiauto and it is perfect on the bunnies. Small, light, very accurate (0.40" and 0.48" group averages at 50m in last two range tests) and ideal for dealing with groups of bunnies down in the McKenzie..
