The best current production lever action 22 rifle is probably the Marlin 39A or Browning BL-22. The second best is the Henry. The Browning BL-22 is a great little 22 rifle which I consider on equal to the Marlin but they always seemed a bit small for me and I don't care for them with a scope mounted on them. Price usually wins out and most choose the Henry these days. They aren't a bad choice overall if you don't mind a little plastic here and there.
