How does the accuracy compare to a bull barrel version?

I haven't really compared them...just about all the shooting I do is on reaction targets...falling plates, bowling pin matches etc where pin point accuracy is not needed.

I like shooting heavy plate racks with my brothers .22. All shots have to be at the very top of the plate and it takes a double tap to knock them down (first shot rocks the plate and a follow up shot knocks it down). It's great practice.

Nice toy, where did you buy? I cannot find this color in my LGS except black.

The new take down/reasonably feature alone is worth upgrading form my old Mark III Target model, nice!

That's a nice collection, I've been thinking about getting a lite. I have a mark iv 22/45 tactical and its my best rimfire pistol, the takedown is so much easier!

Sweet collection.

Is this Model affected by the recall?

no...

Firearms NOT subject to the Recall

Newly manufactured Mark IV™ pistols will begin with serial number "500." Thus, if you have a Mark IV™ or 22/45™ pistol with a serial number beginning with the number "5," your pistol is not subject to the recall.

They look really very nice, but they will be never even close to my MkII 5.5" barrel stainless, which I purchased nearly 30 years ago, and which looks and functions as it did the very first day.

As it is with light beer, light cheese, light cigarettes, it is just not the real thing. Therefore I am not a fan of it.

Looks like you are shooting at GRGC

Very nice collection there.

I have been thinking about getting a Mark IV Standard but have been unable to find any info on the tapered barrel (4.75" or 6"). Does anybody here have any info or thoughts on it?

 

[clhdluke]

I'd go for any one of those. Nice collection!

 

[wayupnorth]

damn fine collection!
