The nylon 66 was one of the great .22s. I had one in Apache Black with a chrome receiver cover.
I have no idea why Remington quit making them. They were accurate, light, dependable and tough.

No doubt about it, super accurate as you say. Scoped or not, it’s the best plinkin’ gun around. Lots of squirrels & snakes bit it, especially with hollow points. Light as a feather, carry it ALL day!
