Buy recommendations Cheap bolt. 22 recommendations?
Curious what y'all would suggest for a cheap bolt. 22. Caught between a norinco or a used coey model 60. Open to other suggestions too https://www.gotenda.com/product/norinco-jw-15a-22-lr-bolt-action-rifle-wood-w-ammo-combo/

I have the 13" version of the JW15. A bit rough in finishing (Dremel and compound or light filing on a can smooth out, functions without, but some stiffness in areas like the safety lever) and needs a deep cleaning from the packing oil/grease when new, and see if you can buy in person as the sights are known to be crooked in some instances, but a great value if you are willing to treat it as a low cost project gun vs. an out of box ready gun for 3x the price. I have more money in the scope and rings than the gun now, but still feel like it was a steal. Norinco is like that generally. If you just want a smooth experience on your first .22, you may want to go with something like the Cooey.
