The Great Kazoo's Feedback

Marlin XT-22MVSR ProFire 22 WMR Rifle 22 would be the one I would go for. I trust Marlin. Haven't tried anything new but I've had great experiences with there older ones. I just picked one up a model 600 for $99.00 from the firing line. It was all kinds of dirty but after a couple hours of cleaning off most of the gunk it fires perfect. I steal plane on completely stripping it and removing 100% of the build up. Just my thoughts
The Ruger American is great, my .22lr Ruger American Predator (factory threaded for a can) shoots great, I can't believe the groups I've shot with it. The .17HMR Ruger American Predator is also a great shooter.
