My uncle is giving us his 22LR rifles. I can pick one (of 2)....... But which one, I dont intend to sell it, I want the better one to shoot with. I know nothing about older rifles.

 

The both seem to be in the same condition. They look like the were kinda taken care of, left in a closet for years

 

Winchester Model 52 22LR according to the internet and the s/n it was made in 1935

 

or

 

Remington Match Master Model 513-T

 

any opinions would be appreciated. which was the better shooter in the day.

Thanks Rich

Is the Winchester a target model like the Rem or a Sporter? I have seen Win 52s go for anything from $250 up to $1800 with a case or loaded target models.

 

Personally, I like the Wins more. I dont have any real reasons why ... I just like all of the Wins I have picked up and only a few of the Rems.

The 513T is a great target rifles. Many years back we got them for our PAL Rifle club. I'd say go for that one.

Both great rifles, given a choice I would go with the Winchester.

I would take the Remington Match Master Model 513-T

Winchester FTW!

Winchester FTW!
