Like he said. If it's a single action that turns your crank, I'd be looking for a Ruger 3 screw Single Six or a Colt Frontier Scout

I don't think that anyone has mentioned the Ruger New Bearcat revolver.
While these might seem a bit too small when you first pick one up, they really do grow on you.
The sights are fixed, but do provide a very good square blade and square notch sight picture and they are regulated to shoot to point of aim.
Pretty much all steel and quite attractive.
They are a lot like a Remington 1875 revolver.
And, they shoot just as accurately as a Single Six.

Ignore the Model 12 in the middle.
Top 17-3 .22LR. With its flat main spring it has one of the best DA and SA trigger pulls.
Bottom 34-1 .22 LR. It is a J frame so it has a coil main spring and is not as good as the 17-3.

The S&W 63 has the same spring system and has a brutal trigger pull.
I have a Ruger SP 101 in a 4" .22 that I like but haven't really tried it out.
The H&R I am not expecting much out of it but I hope it works well looks near new.
I once had a High Standard Victor that shot better than anything I ever owned.
In a moment of weakness I sold it to a guy who didn't keep his mouth shut about his collection.
He came home from working a night shift and he didn't have a collection.

Based on personal experience, forget a Charter Arms pathfinder. Don't laugh but I have a Taurus and it is nice to shoot and very accurate. Every once in a while they do it right.
The others are right. Ruger single six/ten, S&W take your pick.
I like those top breaks guys. Very nice.

The J frame speedloader for the 34 came with the revolver. The K frame .38 Special speedloader I got years ago for ATC and I think I got a couple from Charlton.
