Lee Enfield is all I can say...
Sorry very bias towards them...
For a frist gun, buying used is a good idea. Cheaper pricing and the ability to wheel and deal.
However, I would say a SKS in a Tapco stock from the Firearms Outlet is a good buy.

I think you can take all suggestions, but in the end, the choice will be about what you like, what drives you to take up shooting, what means something to you. For some people it is finding a firearm that is similar to the first one they used with their Dad. For some, it is about the blast of shooting. For others, it is about the technical discipline of competitive shooting. For others again, it is about collecting and enjoying the experience and intricacies of each firearm they own.
In my experience, if there is a toss up between two firearms, it isn't really a choice about which one you will buy, but which one you will buy first. Curiosity will pull you in, eventually.
Hey guys. Man I missed this site. I finally got my PAL/RPAL and I think I have settled on a gun. I'm really looking at a Savage Mk 2 FV Heavy barrel. I've heard synthetic stocks have some issues and factory iron sights are of poorer quality. Could you guys let me know what to expect of this gun or if there is a more affordable and higher quality option? I'm only particular on .22LR, bolt action, and preferably Canadian made. Thanks guys.

Start by determining what other competitors are using in the type of target shooting that interests you.
Gun Control is about making it unlawful for you to use, carry, or possess a firearm.
All restrictions/prohibitions on the use, carriage, or possession of firearms must be repealed.
Middle ground?
What middle ground?
Mosin Nagant. If you don't already own one, you need to go out and buy one so that you can say you do. Now. Go. Get off the internet. Mosin. N-A-G-A-N-T.
if someone drives by and you're in your underwear, beating a porcupine to death and laughing hysterically, it might be bad for business.
Buy one of the ones for sale on here and support these guys, they will be your biggest help whenever you need some.
A gun from on here will be in good condition and at a fair price.

Thanks for the opinion. I'm only looking at .22's right now and actually settled on a Savage Mk 2 G as the wood stock felt much more natural then the synthetic. The price was also better. In the future I'll look into the Mosin. A 7.62 is a few pennies more to shoot but it looks like a beautiful rifle.
Purchased a GSG 1911 .22 in snow cammo from Canada Ammo for my wife and I have to tell you, lots of fun to shoot. Wife wanted it because it looks pretty. She now wants a 9mm because the .22 is fun to shoot but not much punch to it. If you are going to buy a pistol, you might want to go that route.
