Buy recommendations 22lr options

Good people,

I was hoping the internet could point me in the right direction.
I’m new to the hobby, I’d like something I can modify, maybe do some simple comps with.
Something that even if it’s flawed it’s something I can figure out myself to learn some more about the gun or just send it in for a claim and won’t be screwed.

I live in Vancouver so shops that might help me out in person would be amazing as well

Ngl Ik PCC are banned now but something 9mm would also be highly appreciated other then 22

Depends what you want to do, and how much you want to spend. What kind of competitions do you want to participate in? Reliable Gun is the best shop in my experience, those guys are awesome!

For NRL22 (precision rimfire), I recommend either a CZ457 or a Tikka t1x. Great community support, lots of upgrade options and unless you decide to drop some serious money on an r700 pattern rifle you will never outgrow either platform.

For multigun or other dynamic shooting disciplines, TM22 if you don't plan to tinker or upgrade. Mags are cheap, generally reliable, and you can have full 25 rounders that don't suck. 10/22 if you want a gun with a great aftermarket of parts and upgrades. 10 rd mags are reliable but the larger ones are pretty hit or miss.
