You're basically down to the 10/22 or TM-22 Pro in Canada. There's a few other choices on the market, but these two are the most popular and common on this sub. The 10/22 is better if you're the type who likes to tinker and upgrade their stuff, while the TM-22 Pro is arguably a better rifle out of the box and has modern features like an M-Lok handguard and optic rail.

I have both the 10/22 and TM-22. Both are super affordable to own and super affordable to shoot. The TM-22 is definitely fun but if I’m trying to take my shooting seriously I prefer the 10/22 only because the form and fit better resemble my larger calibre hunting rifles.

I agree. I find that most people usually use the 10/22 if they need it for something serious (hunting, competition, training for either), but people who just want to have a fun time will usually take the TM-22.
