A Ruger 10/22 is a semi-automatic and the standard versions are not famous for accuracy. Ruger make a basic bolt action rimfire called the "American" and the slightly more upmarket Precision Rimfire which may be of interest to you. Good manufacturers to consider are Anschütz, CZ and Tikka. I'm sure other forum members will make more suggestions if prompted.
