Did a search and found a thread on "favorite rimfire rifles," but it wasn't a picture thread. I love picture threads! So here's hoping we can kick off another.

Post of pic of your favorite rimfire rifle(s).

Mine is a pristine Remington 541T with a sporter barrel. Leupold Vari-X III 6.5-20X40 EFR scope.

I'll bite. I have too many to post pics of them all but here's one that comes to mind. A Weatherby Mark XXII, a recent gift from the wife. Not very good pics though:

Remington Speedmaster 22 S/L/LR
My parents gave this (NIB) to my Grandad for his B-Day when I was 2. He gave it to me about 3 yrs ago.
It is a tack driver, even with open sights, at well over 100yds.

Whoah; love that Schultz & Larsen. That Remington Speedmaster looks great, too. Especially nice that it has a family history.
 
Guess I should also add this one. I've wanted this to be a favorite, but it has taken me a while to get it functioning properly (see this thread over in the Shotgun forum).

It's a Savage 24 E-DL .22 WMR over a 20 gauge combo. Manufactured circa 1964. The rimfire barrel has worked ever since I bought it second hand some time ago, but I only just got the shotgun barrel working reliably. That's a Leupold Vari-X II 1-4X scope mounted on a BKL unitized base. I'm setting it up for small game, especially squirrel.

PTK ... modified "slightly?" Understatement of the week! That 10/22 is definitely at the high end of the cool factor scale!
 
Here is my oldest, an 1890 made in 1907 that belonged to my grandfather. He used in as a varmit gun on his ranch in southern Idaho. He carved the Diamond P, his brand on the butt stock. It is my first rifle, which I got in 1963 or 1964. He (or someone else) replaced the barrel after it wore out... You can see very old pipe wrench marks on the new, round barrel. I assume the original barrel was hexagonal.

The other is a late 1980s 9422XLR which I have had for almost 3 hours... I already had one, but this was just too pretty and called my name when I saw it this afternoon.
