Not sure. I just bought one that has a similar "f" prefix to the number and can't find the answer. That serial number appears to be from 1972. The phone number for Winchester is 800-333-3288 or 801-876-2711 and you will need your model and serial number for them to look up your date of manufacture.
Your winchester model 9422 .22cal lever action rifle which was made in 1981 is currently valued at between 250-400 dollars,depending on the rifle having between 60%-90% original condition and a good bore.

1972, @ 4900 made. Initial cost @ 150 USD. Made for the European market. There may have been some of these rifles made in 1972, in the model 94, not 9422. However, the serial number on the particular rifle is F753XXX and came in the original brown U.S. Repeating Arms box which makes it a much later rifle. It has an XTR checkered stock, unlike a 1972 rifle. The 1972 rifle was in 30-30 caliber. This rifle is 22LR. About 500 units were supposed to have been produced for an undisclosed distributor with a YBL serial number prefix. But as noted the serial number for this one has an "F" prefix.

I f the question you are asking is when this Winchester model 1894 rifle was made?The serial number indicates that your model 1894 rifle was produced in the year 1984.
I believe your question is asking about the Winchester model 9422M?This lever action .22mag rifle is the only Winchester with the F prefix to the serial number.If that is the case,your Winchester model 9422M was made in the year 1985 with the serial number that you provided.
