Hey guys i already have a ruger single six for target practice but it is slow to reload

looking to get a 10 shot semi auto with 2 mags

Looked at a stainless luger type mark lll ruger with bull barrel but it was 720 bucks
Does the bullbarrel help with accuracy just from morremass and less muzzle flip or does the extra mass also keep barrel from heating and warping after dozens of rounds?

any other ideas for sweet looking pistol? i like glocks dont like 1911s
 
the heavy barrel makes it seem more stable to hold on target. it also takes longer to get hot so if you love to shoot fast it may help you. look for a blued mark 2 heavy barrel on the EE. you should be able to get one for around 400
 
Have a look at EE for S&W 422, 622, 2206.

Deadly accurate...most average $200 - $500 depending on model and condition.

IMO there is no muzzle flip on a 22lr HG and you can't you can't warp the barrel after dozens or even bricks of ammo.
Good choice on the Ruger MKiii's. I've owned slab sides,bull barrels and tapered Ruger's. My favourite is the 4.25" tapered barrel. Doesn't feel nose heavy and I like the Classic Iconic look. I've owned "pot metal" 22lr that wore quick (and got rid of even quicker)
IIRC I paid under $400 BNIB…

BEST RESPONSE YET!!! (and I am not knocking Ruger's products at all, just calling it like I see it)
I have owned a 422 or 622 or 2206 continuously for about 15 years. They are super accurate, light as heck, low barrel axis (the barrel comes out the bottom not the top of the slide)
and I can attest to their durability. I've never , ever , had one break down on me. I have possibly over 50,000 rounds through mine, and they just keep ticking and ticking. Heck, I just bought a 4.5" barrelled 422 target (adjustable sights, walnut stocks) with 2 mags for $250 shipped. Just be patient, they will surface, but keep your money handy, cause they do not wait around long for you to be asking for extra pics and dickering about price. If they are under $500, it is a bargain in my opinion.
 
Browning Buckmark.
its the gun i recommend for anyone looking for a inexpensive 22 pistol that is accurate and easy to clean/maintain.

ive got pretty much 1 of all the in market 22 pistols and its my go to 22.

go give one a try, you'll thank me.
 
I have a Browning Buckmark. Middle model. 5 1/2" barrel. It will easily do 2" groups at 15 yards using basic American Eagle ammo (did this on the weekend). So far with the exception of a few Fail to Feeds from using under powered ammo it has worked flawlessly. Decent trigger but not great. Easy to shoot and operate. For me a nice grip angle. I don't think you can go wrong. Is it a S&W 41 no but it is a third the price and chances are the gun will be more accurate than you are.
 
Browning Buck Mark are available in a variety of models that will fit almost any budget. They are reliable and accurate. Ruger Mark III is also a good choice. Keep your eyes open for good used handguns as they can be very good, too. I recently got a High Standard Citation within the OP's budget and am waiting for the paperwork to come through. It has the promise of being a very good shooting pistol.

The Smith Model 41 in 5.5" is likely the best trainer pistol you could buy, accurate and the weight & feel you want. Agreed. Buy what you want once.
 
I had a Smith 41, but sold it. I personally like LIGHT .22 pistols. It's not like a lot of heft is required to shoot .22lr to soak up recoil. That's why I ended up going back to my tried and true 422/622. They are light as hell, and field strip super easily for cleaning.

But as a trainer.. The 41 can stop muzzle flinch, help learn trigger break on breathing cycle.. etc. and yes it's hard to find a "cheap" 41. If it's a .22 for .22 only purposes lighter is great.
