Ted Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I am looking for a reasonably accurate .22 for playing 'payback' on some squirrels after the deer season. Figured I'd try some squirrel stew as the venison didn't work out this year. In a perfect world I am looking for a Savage MKII or a Henry Lever. I only have a budget of around $200 so it really needs to be a used model. Not looking for any semi-auto's and not looking for one to be shipped, so it needs to be reasonable travel (Im in Niagara County). PM me if you have something your willing to part with. Thanks.

HuntOrBeHunted Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 For 200 beans you should be able to find a nive savage brand new. I bought a semi-auto savage 22. and have shot thousands of rounds threw it without a problem. And lever or bolt comes down to what you deisre. Good luck with your purchase.

Stretcher Guy Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 My Savage MKii was $139 brand new from a local gun store. Have you tried looking in your local stores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Yes, local stores are all out. Checked at Buds online and there is a HUGE backlog on all orders. 'Stretcher', $139 sounds like a great deal, give you $150 for it, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suilleabhain Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I like bolts, had a Remington Nylon 11 which the ex got in the deevorce. She won't sell it to me now. Used a pump, now have a Ruger 10/22 with the Mannlicher stock. I prefer the bolt and would give my eye teeth to get my Remington back. Could hit a plastic bottle cap at 30 yards consistently with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Yeah for 200 you should be able to get something new. I bought my son a 10/22 a while back. Don't remember the exact price but it was under 200 for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Yeh, its looking like I am going to probably buy a Savage MKII (I have owned these before and was very impressed at there accuracy out of the box) and I will get it from Buds and take a gamble on how long it takes to ship. When ever I sell a gun to my local gun store I always get him to throw in a 'free future FFL transfer' in the deal so it wont cost me an FFL fee to buy a gun from Buds. Thanks for the advice guys.

Ted Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 OK, plans and budget have changed, now trying to do it closer to $100 so anyone with an old Marlin model 25 or something let me know. Still prefer bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
