I have a marlin bolt from the 70's that is a tack driver model 20 I think it's a killing machine for me since I was about 12years old my gramps gave me the gun to kill pigions off of the corn cylos back in the day. Man that was funInteresting to see a Mossberg 44 recommended since most probably have not experienced the vintage 22 rifles. Sure they were wood stocked, open sights, peep sight, had blued or case hardened metal and most fired 22 s,l or long rifle. Also Remington, Winchester, Marlin, Savage, Stevens, H&R, Browning, High Standard and Mossberg as well as others made 22 rifles that would meet your criteria except for synthetic stock. I am a fan of old steel and wood and you can find these rifles in local gun shops, some shows and by word of mouth. Hope you find an accurate 22 that meets your needs.

Any .22 with a tubular magazine should work besides the 22wmrFor .22 shorts you likely have to go with a single shot rifle. There are many on the used market but I think that the inexpensive Cricket is the only one left that is new anymore. But that seems setup for kids though with a shorter pull on the stock. I remember shooting the pump gallery guns at arcades ages ago when I was a kid. Sometimes those turn up for sale but they are well used. My favorite single shot is a BSA Martini action rifle. That thing is just crazy accurate.
I love it!I have a CZ455 17HMR. It's a great rifle. The trigger was awful. I put a timney trigger in it and it's a great rifle.
I got a Bergara BMR 22lr and put a vortex Diamondback tactical 6-24x50 FFP scope on it. That trigger is 2.5 pounds as light as it will go.
I have to be honest. The Bergara impresses me. I shot a bunch of chucks this year out to 200 yards with that 22lr and CCI Standard velocity target.
I put my suppressor on it, and it is quieter than my air rifle. The groups are 50 yard.
Yeah. I love my 9422 and 9422M, but they're not made anymore, and they're far from $500.I prefer Winchester any model 22 have almost all of them and they shoot awesome + shoot 22 shorts
excellent choiceI made my decision. Im going with a CZ 457 model 2313. My best bet is to pick up one up at the Sportmans warehouse in Troy or Travesre City, MI
