What was or is your most accurate .22cal hunting rifle:

[Hookeye]

My junker Sav/Anschutz 141 was pretty decent w WW SuperX.
I had a 541T-HB but couldn't get over that plastic mag. I never really tested it, just zeroed it and smoked a few varmints in the yard. Got more and more annoyed with it and sold it for more than I had in it

TOZ 78-1

I never hunted with it, but the most accurate .22 I ever had was one like this Mossberg heavy barrel target rifle (Model 44?). I got one for myself after using one in Boy Scouts (early 70's). It was marked "Property of U.S. Government" so I'm guessing it was some kind of training rifle. It came with Redfield target peeps, but I had a Bushnell scope mounted on it. I could consistently put all my shots in the round "Pepsi" medallion on the cans at 100 yards offhand. I miss that gun...

I used to pop squirrels with a Savage/Anschutz 64. Kinda bulky
Dumped it to get a MS repeater............never did

This thing shoots amazing at first it was a pain, but after installing some Volquartsen gear, new mags and some polishing and a coat of ceramcoat.
Its certainly an amazing tack driver and it didnt cost me a 1,000+.
My Boyds heavy target stock will be arriving Monday, I have yet to shoot any match grade out of her but at 55/60 this is where she is hitting.
I think after I purchase a better optic, heavier stock and some match grade I think I can get em tighter.

Remington 40grain thunderbolt, 55/60 yards

Both of the CZ 452 rifles I bought for my son and daughter will shoot 1in groups with 40 grain lead bullets right out of the box

10/22 Scrapped the junk factory bolt for a Tactical Innovations milled bolt and stainless firing pin with hardened extractor. Replaced the recoil spring and guide rod as well. Polished the receiver, the hammer, sear and disconnector.
I'm sort of a noob at this stuff, but I think it shoots pretty good.

My Savage Anschutz 164 Sporter was purchased used a few years ago. I replaced the scope that came with it with a Leupold FX 4x28 rimfire scope. It really is so accurate that it is boring to shoot at 50 yards. It seems to like CCI Standard Velocity and CCI SGB ammo.

 

[DanO]

Anschutz 200 single shot. That thing was killer on rodents and feral cats. Too heavy for the field, so I sold it to a yound aspiring biathaloner.

Right now I have a CZ 452 trainer I am dialing in and it feels great to carry. Seems to shoot tighter than the Chief AJ - tuned 10/22 I have had for years.

CZ 452 ultra lux special exclusive with 28" barrel

I have a Savage-Anschutz .22 with a Leupold M-8 4x Gold Ring scope that is a tack driver. My eyes don't let me shoot like I did when I bought it around 1980 at Em-Roe downtown Indy.

I vaguely remember Em-Roe. 54 or 64 action? I bought a S/A 54 Sporter this year that really is the berries. I've had several very accurate rimfires. Browning 52 sporter, Kimber Hunter/Silhouette, Suhl 150-1, Kimber 82 Gov't, Lilja bbl'd Sako Quad, 52D Winchester. Several CZ's.

Suhl was probably the easiest to shoot well off bags. May have been the most accurate of the bunch. I'm not enough of an accuracy nut to have done the testing to truly know. I DO know that I've enjoyed every one of 'em.

 

[patience0830]

WELL i own 2 Anschutz 54 Sporter's and a CZ 452 the Action on the 54's are alot smoother,but I must say the CZ is just as accurate.

Necroposter! It'd been so long since I saw this thread I thought it was a new one 'til I saw my picnic table on the first page.

 

[KJW]

Ruger 10/22 with volquarsten trigger, hogue stock, and tactical-solutions barrel, Mueller variable all-purpose scope. Oh so light, oh so accurate.

 

[nightsite]

savage mark II bolt action here also

 

[trailrider]

My Marlin 60 is a laser beam on varmits with open sights.

 

[cuemily]

Would have to be my Browning Tbolt

 

[MickeyBlueEyes]

Marlin mod39 bolt action clip fed. I can shoot match sticks at 100 yards. At 50 yards, I can split bullets on axe heads. I thought it looked fun, so I tried popping 2 balloons with one bullet, chopped in half by the axe head nailed onto a 4x4 block. Exhibition shooting is a lost art and I wish we had more adventurous people out there.

 

[Oldbird13]

Boy I can't tell you how happy you just made me seeing those 4 dead #%@*^*@+ squirrels. I hate those pesky bastards and they are twice as fast as the regulars. Thank you, wherever you are!

 

[Mgderf]

Mossberg model 144 target rifle (bolt gun) 57-shot box mag
Winchester 1885 "Low-Wall" that has been re-barreled with a Winchester model 52 .22Lr barrel.
Both have taken more squirrels than I can recall.

Either of these will easily out-shoot me.

Cz452 scout is my new hunting rifle. 16" barrel, 12" length of pull and overall length just over 32". Its short, light and shoots good. How good? Im not sure yet as i havent put it on a bench yet. Leaning off of a sappling i did two 5 shot groups 1/1/2" or less with federal bulk pack so im sure it will shoot way better than that. I bought a cz 452 trainer and a heavy, free floated barrel, thumb hole stocked savage on the same day. The cz would shoot bulk pak better and cci mini mag, standard velocity and wolf match about the same plus the cz is a slim non free-floated barrel that didnt weigh 10lbs. I carried the savage in the woods once then sold it to a buddy of mine. The savage was a decent good shooting gun but its not build near as well as the cz. The cz feels like the action is more like a big gun. Kinda like the ruger 77/22 they dont feel like a toy. Anyway both are good shooters.
