Does anyone know where the Savages are built? I'm assuming its China based off the low prices I'm seeing.
BTW, is a heavy barrel really needed on a bolt action .22? With no rapid firing, heat probably won't coming into play.

I think I'm going to go for the "One of Each" plan. I have a Marlin 925, next is a Savage FV-SR, then a CZ-45* .22lr. Why not?
The one thing I wish there were more of, is full size .22 rifles.

marlins are inexpensive to own you can choose from tube feed or mag feed....
I have no experience with the CZ rifles but I just picked up a Savage MK II and am definitely impressed with the rifle that you get for the cost. A standard MK II F (without accutrigger) can be had at Walmart for $127. The same model with the adjustable two stage trigger will run $177...one with the trigger and heavy barrel (scope bases only - no iron sights) is a little over $230. Thanks to Glocktogo I found the MK II FV-SR model in the photo below which comes with the accutrigger, fluted and threaded heavy barrel, one piece weaver mount, and tactical bolt handle for $252 plus tax locally. Not sure if any other manufacturer can offer the types of features that Savage does for the cost.
Do want
CZ 452 if you can swing it!
CZ-452 Trainer - the only difference between it and all the other more expensive CZ-452 models is the stock and the iron sights. The action is identical in all the CZ-452 models.
The Marlin 925 is a great little 22 - especially for the price. My oldest daughter could shoot nickel to quarter sized groups with it at 75 yds all day long (I often regret giving it to a son in law it was such a nice rifle).
