It's hard beat a semiauto like a 10/22 for plinking fun but right out of the box a good bolt action like a CZ455 or a CZ453 is generally (unless you get a lemon) far more accurate. Either will work fine for hunting. The 10/22 will allow follow up shots while the CZ455 can be ordered in a single caliber or with interchangeable barrels in 22LR, 22MWMR, and 17HMR. The best choice is the one that fits your needs.

FWIW a 10/22 can be modified to be just as accurate as a CZ but it takes time, money, and work.
