22 Cal Tin Can Shooter

I kinda like my Walther SP22 I think it's the MKII. was under your pricing point and with a little fiddling of the set screw shoots like a dream now. It eats lots of different ammo and I haven't had any trouble with it. Looks like a Robocop gun though.
 
Look for a used S&W 22A they are very good and quite reasonable to buy.

I was at the range today and one member there was quite pissed at his S&W 22A. Was hanging up on the ammunition he was using yet the scored rounds fired in his son's rifle just fine. Since I am looking for an autoloader too, I will pass on this model.
 
I got the GSG 1911, and put a cheap, flat main spring housing on it which to me is more comfortable and moves my hand in to where the beavertail safety function every time. Love this gun. The other day I shot a 8" balloon at 100 yrds. (... on the 3rd shot)

These little Beretta's are really sweet. Very reliable and well made.
They look a little goofy with the long barrels but they feel good in the hand!
Some custom 4.2" barrels were in the works but there was a quality issue so they got sent back to the manufacturer.....hopefully we will see them soon but the long barrel has really grown on me.
 
I am having fun with my new MP 22. Shoots high left (i think someone else here was having the same issue) other than that I love it. Hasnt had an issue at all so far (ate everything I fed it 750+ rounds)

I've found that with .22LR, it can be hard to dial in on what ammunition a particular gun happens to like. For example, had two identical Buckmark's on the bench in front of me. One would shoot Federal AutoMatch all day, no issues. The other would shoot CCI Mini-Mag's all day, no issues. However, you put Mini-Mag's into the first pistol and AutoMatch into the second, and there would be no end to the issues.

And I thought the Browning Buckmarks were any ammo compliant.
Guess I'll stick with my High Standard Citation then. Loves the cheaper Rem Target ammo :)
