(respectfully stepping in)
Gentlemen-
I would offer the CZ 452 Varmint in .22 LR as an entry. 5/10 round mags, 20" barrel. They can be had for around $359, and coupled with a nice scope ( I have a Weaver V16 4-16 AO that focuses at less than 15') and some Eley/Wolf ammo, you're driving tacks for under $800 total. The trigger is adjustable, and another website ( www.rimfirecentral.com) has plenty of aftermarket trigger adjustment options.
My factory trigger is tuned to less than a pound, and it shoots in the .2's @ 25 yards and .3's @ 35 yards.

Weren't you supposed to do something else before you "stepped in", respectfully or not?

I picked up a CZ 452 Military a few months ago and was kind of impressed. I wanted another .22LR after not having one for a long time but didn't want another 10/22 or Marlin. It's not a Match rifle by any means but it's very accurate. Because of it's size and weight it feels like a 'real' rifle when you put it up to your shoulder and shoot it. I bought it new for $300. It has the Bavarian style stock which looks a little funny but I like it because it's different. The only reservations that I have with it are the sights which are very similiar to those found on a Mauser 98K. They just seem like a little overkill when you consider that you don't shoot at long ranges with a .22. On the waiting list are a good set of rings and a scope by either Weaver or Nikon.

I bought a CZ 452 American a few months back and I must say it is the most accurate .22 I've ever owned (or shot for that matter, never had the privilege of toying with an Anschutz). I can knock over 12 gauge shells consistently with it at 50 meters. I'd like to shoot a smallbore match with it and feel I could do better than last with it. It seems to really like Aguila Golden Eagle and I can't wait to get out after some squirrels with it!
