I want to get a CZ 452 scout and put a can on it. I like my bolt action rifles. I have a 10/22 but its just doesn't have the soul of my bolt guns.

I've got a Savage bolt action .17 HMR that will shoot better than I can...but I keep coming back to my 10/22. Guess it's just what I got used to after carrying it for so many years. Had it since the late 80's or early 90's, can't remember. But I've killed many a squirrel with it, plus plenty of other assorted critters.

Hate to disappoint Randy, but no skunks were harmed by my rifle.

I had a Marlin model 60 growing up. I might have actually put more rounds through that growing up than an M-16 when I was in the Army.

I think that for me it would be a toss up. The semi would be nice for quicker follow up shots. But the bolt reputably has better accuracy, plus with a bolt you can catch your brass if need be for recycling. This would really be important for any kind of centerfire I would think. You know, an end of RATIONAL civilization.

Hehe, there's always next time! Oh and be sure and aim for the head or the base of the skull. THAT will short circuit the "Firing" impulse to the..well you know where. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I haven't had a bolt action 22 for long. But it has quickly become my favorite.

Good thing about a .22, don't worry about the brass, no reloading there.

Don't have many skunks out where I live, and the few that are around I typically don't bother. Now the groundhogs, on the other hand, decimated our garden this year. I killed a couple, but they tore up dad's squash and watermelons. Next year, groundhogs, next year!

But what about selling the brass IF you had enough.
