I own 3 .22 rifles. The first is a Remington 514, a single shot, bolt action rifle that will shoot .22 short, .22 long, or .22 long rifle. I bought it back in 1971 when I was in the Navy. Back in the day, .22 short was quite cheap, cheaper then .22 long, or .22 LR, and a great plinking round for general practice. I have put thousands of rounds through the rifle, and always enjoyed shooting it.
My second is a Remington 581, a magazine fed, bolt action rifle. It shoots .22 long rifle only. Again, a nice weapon that just keeps functioning flawlessly.
My last is an Anschutz "Woodchucker", a youth sized, magazine fed, bolt action rifle I bought to teach my stepson to shoot. It is also very accurate, and a pleasure to shoot.
