Well, you could buy a Ruger 10-22 and then dump about $1000.00 into it. Or just buy a CZ and have a pretty good rifle right from the get-go.

There is a guy on here that has a 22 project gun for $60. That would be perfect for beating the hell out of some tacks.

Good luck with your project but sounds like contradiction in terms.
Guess best way to stay cheap and drive tacks be one of the
Savage choices, add a scope, and paint your tacks orange
for best visibility. If that's too much try a Cricket bolt action
single shot w/scope.
One thing I never have figured out is why folks hate tacks so much.

whats cheap? what is your budget?
if you want a "tack driver" go to 17hmr. i have a savage 93 heavy barrel 17hmr with a vortex scope. it is a "tack driver" just about every time i take it out shooting,when we are done. i shoot the roofing nails that we use to hold up the target. i can shoot less than 1/8 inch groups at 100 yards with it from the bench. it holds the best group of anything i have owned. ammo is 10 to 12 bucks for 50 rounds. its also fun to snipe squirrels at 150+ yards..

There is a Ruger American rimfire on here today, bull barrel, threaded. It should be a tack driver, mine was and is. It’s comes with a good scope as well.

I've got a archangel 10/22 I would let go right.

Ruger American rimfire. Take a wood dowel sand down the barrel channel. Pay close attention to the tip. Mount a rimfire scope with 50 yard parallax or AO. Use weaver #12 mounts or a good rail. Google Ruger American trigger job-do what is says. Put about 500 rounds through the rifle. Your welcome.
Thank me later.
