    About 8 months i think? Probably had 400 rounds through it. I'm gonna stop cleaning it to see if it like to be shot dirty.

    I've used a few rimfires from those brands - ultimate accuracy probably varies more between examples of the same brand than between the averages of each brand.

    Savage have the best trigger as standard by a fair margin IMO, but I think trigger mods are reasonably cheap for the others.

    CZ is the prettiest with nicest finish.

    Like Marlin, I've heard that newer Savages aren't as good as they used to be for quality control etc.

    Try to handle a few and see what fits you best.

    I have a CZ452-2E ZKM American lefthand 22 with an aftermarket Brooks trigger and a 3-9x40 Simons Prosport scope it's very accurate and can outshoot me and was looking for a 17HMR for a bit more range when I found a CZ527 American 204 Ruger lefthand and between the 2 of them cover the varments pretty well where I live

    Mine does (Marlin). When accuracy suffers I check grouping then give it a clean then check again. Then leave it.
