lets see those rimfires

View attachment 1139600 Remington 581 with aftermarket SS .22LR Barrel and aftermarket, modified, thumbhole, semi-finished blank. (several years old.)
I installed a makeshift forend "pad", so this rifle could be used by a beginner Rimfire Benchrest shooter in the matches I initiated for the Club. It's a really good Rem 581 with a Shilen after-market barrel, installed by a good gunsmith. I don't shoot competitively anymore, but like to shoot this rifle, mostly offhand.
 
A quartet of Remington rimfires: at top is M-37 target rifle customized by Roy Dunlap. the rifle I shot on university varsity rifle team over two decades ago. M-40-X Sporter, Custom M-37 Sporter, M-121 pump action. IMG-4953-2.jpg

All beautiful guns!

While you title the 40X as a sporter, I can’t imagine taking a rifle with a finish like that afield anywhere near a branch, thorn, or rock.
 
Very nice guns!!!

.At the top my 1957 Marlin model 57 M 22mag Levermatic , my model 56 22LR Levermatic. Then in the second picture my 1952 Marlin 39a with Ballard rifling , and my 2004 Marlin 39a golden target edition complete with bull barrel ( Remlin) , and in the bottom picture my 1976 Marlin 39a topped with a Williams aperture sight . I call it my Bicentennial Squirrel getter …… my grandson calls it “his” ;)
Nice Marlins! I miss mine.
 
Pretty sure no one else here has one of these...

I dunno, I think mine's close, Ballard Rifle & Cartridge, with Steve Garbe's initials on the barrel as the final inspector:
