Thread: Best value bolt .22 besides Norinco....

I'm not rubbishing the Norinco's, but I'm no DIY rifle handyman And knowing me; would probably balls up a re-crowning etc!

The cheapest Norinco I could find was $299 online, and $349 in-store. Then you factor in getting the $299 one couriered here ($60-ish?); and to be honest; wouldn't ask the local shop to receive a rifle I'd bought from another store.

Many of the used .22's for sale were dearer than the new Savage which I think was a bargain at $359. Every review seemed to give them high marks. If I didn't see the Savage I would have asked what was available in the buy/sell forum here.
