If you were to buy a 22 mag tomorrow, what would you buy!
CZ
buy it in 223
Zastava had one it was nice
Man wants a .22 mag and in semi would be better!
CZ would be my pick but for the cost of ammo vs the cost of 223 ammo I would go 223 if it was an option. I had an Anshutz many years ago that was very good, but sold it as most of my hunting was 22 subbies. Zastava make a nice WMR and it is well priced, but fit and finish still goes to CZ in my books.
Stu in town has a very nice cz semi on the rack at the moment.
Weihrauch
T Bolt?
?
Browning. Nice to use
Semi?
Nah but super quick straight pull.Quote:

This is just for hares and rabbits in central. Nothing more!Quote:

Put a decent scope on any you're sorted.
Anschutz
Is the .22mag a dieing Cal? There's not many in the shops.
I think its because of the price of the ammo I sold mine and did the next step up and use a 22hornet and love it got 2 now its OK up to goats I'd use it on fallow as well but not on doc land
I have a marlin stainless heavy barrel 22mag that shoots far better than I do.Quote:

Nice. Looking for a standard barrel 22 mag but it's really just reliability and accuracy over brand
I do like the suggestion of Wierauch 60j / Krico. 301 Very good but not cheap. If price is an issue, Stirling used to make a decent one for the coin...

That Krico on TM. .22 Magnum Krico | Trade Me
Pretty much. With the price of 22mag and 223rem ammo so close I went straight to the 223. Way more versatile when something a little bigger pops up too. With head shots I still get to take hare and rabbit meat home with good shot placement, well at least when I remember to stop and grab some.Quote:
