Looking for opinions. I’d like to add another .22 rifle to my collection for no real reason other than I can. Not sure how much I’d like to spend yet, but I’m looking for something that’s bolt action and has a threaded barrel. I don’t care if it’s wood or synthetic, just something to shoot squirrels and plink with. I’ve looked at a few different options, but hoping someone has some real world experience that can lead me in one direction or another.
 
I would have to look and see what model my savage in 400 legend is. Has the acutrigger and threaded. Real smooth gun. Im sure they offer the same in 22. I can throw it in the truck if you want to fondle it.

What’s your price range w/scope and can added to the picture? That’ll narrow things down some.
Already have the can, scope will likely be $200 or less since this will be 75yds or less if I had to imagine. I’m thinking top dollar for the gun would be $600?
 
Adjustable trigger threaded and in your price range ($650) at Fin Feather and Fur. Had it for a couple years now and like it a lot. Bergara. Has the carbon fiber barrel.

It groups really well. Thirty yards it’s tight. I’m shooting match ammo out of it though. Paid like $100 bucks for a brick but I’m like I don’t think I’ll live long enough to shoot 500 squirrels lol.
