absolutely agree sawtooth. i bought my then 8 yr old son a cz-452 scout and boy was i hooked. it got expensive collecting cz rimfires that morphed into centerfires and handguns. i just recently bought my yougest son,also 8 now, a cz-455 scout and it too is an excellent rifle and with his i can upgrade the stock and barrel when he gets bigger. the 452 i can put a diff stock on but the barrel is threaded into the action. so, suffice to say i like cz rimfires especially "for the price".The only probleim with the CZ is that after you shoot it you might not want to give it back to your kids.In my opinion, bolt actions are the only way to go with new shooters. As stated above, having a live round in the chamber right after shooting is an accident waiting to happen. Plus, it is easier to feed one round at a time in a bolt action.

don't forget the pumps and the levers...
The CZ is a fine rifle however. Probably the best off-the-shelf bolt .22 available.

ha brent! funny you mention that. the oldest boy of mine,the one i bought the 452 scout that started my addiction, got a hankering for a lever 22lr. bought him a browning blr 22lr last yr for christmas. thats also a darn accurate rifle. i'm just a bolt guy so thats what i bought my sons. i also, started them on irons but both of their eyes suck so that was a excercise in futility and i eventually before they,and mostly me, got too frustrated i put a rimfire scope on the cz and they really woke up.
