Sir, we're deep, deep, deep into a discussion on butt sex right now.Not sure if it was mentioned but the savage model 93GV is nice. I own one in 17 HMR and shot a crow at 300 yards with it.
Also, the Ruger American target .22 is equally nice as well as the CZ target in the manners stock.
If you’re going for extreme accuracy in a run and gun type setting then
Bergara < Rimex < Vudoo
For bench or just a nice good shooting .22
Cooper and Anchutz
I know a couple I mentioned aren’t American but still great .22s.
