I know there are a million threads about this and I've probably read them all. However I'd still like some input.

Here are the 3 I've narrowed it down to.

CZ Cadet .22- It's my top choice right now. I like it because I have a CZ Shadow and love it. It would be nice to be able to practice with "the same gun" I normally compete with. Feel will be similar and I know I love CZ firearms.

Browning Buckmark - It's number 2 on my list becasue I recently saw there is a .22 rifle buckmark that it the exact same thing as the pistol, but with a butstock. It would be cool to do a 3gun match with a .22 and be able to use essentally the same gun for both the pistol and rifle portions of it and share the same mags.

Ruger 22's - third on my list only becasue of the Bonuses of the other 2. I know they are a great gun. Like most guns they would be more accurate than me!

I have a norc m-93 and it's ok. Works good. reliable and relitively accurate, but he mag release on the butt is annoying and it's a bit too slim for my hands... I've got puney little meathooks, so this is the only gun I've ever had feel too small.
 
The Kadet is my favourite, and well worth the price, accurate and reliable.

I prefer it over my Rugers 22/45 and MKIII Hunter, but I've never tried a Browning.

And I won't call a "magazine" a "clip", anymore,

if you spell Kadet with a "k".:):D;)

Will do Komrade! :p Now do you say See Zed or See Zee? lol

This is a future purchase so even though the CZ is more expensive than the others I'm willing to pay for the high quality name of CZ and the fact that it is so similar to my shadow.

Then again if I buy both buckmarks They would be combined a bit more than the CZ... But I'd SAVE money by being able to share mags between them...

This combo still looks like it could be fun though!

Ruger MK3 by far but have you considered the GSG 1911. Its about 350 to 400$ depending on where you get it, Great gun never fails, easy field strip, great weight.
 
If I was in the market again for a .22lr semi HG it would be the Ruger MKiii 22/45 RP model.
I've owned two MK's and they functioned very well eating up all types of .22lr ammo. They're proven and built like a tank.
btw...why do people mount red dots on HG's? I tried it once on my MKiii but removed it when I got home. I did not like the weight or the strange sight alignment.
 
+1 for mkiii, i scoped mine for funzies. 2-6x simmons pistol scope. havent really taken it past 2x though

I have a Ruger MKIII, with the bull barrel. I love it, shoots everything I feed it and it's way more accurate than I am. Feels good in the hand and easy to aim.

Best part is it takes a 10 round clip and you can get a clip loader for it making a day of shooting easy on the thumbs!

clips.
 
A buddy has a GSG and I tried it out.. It's ok... nothing to write home about. eventually I'll probably get one, but not right now I don't think. as for the rugers... I know they are great, but the kadet and buckmark still have the edge for me. Right now it's a 2 way tie. Do I get 1 kadet, or the buckmark pistol and rifle?

Again this is for a future purchase it will probably be a while before I make a decision. I've heard lots of good feedback on the rugers. I know the CZ is good, but I haven't really heard too much on the browning... Is thata good thing or a bad?
 
oh and as for the scope on te buckmark in that pic... No i won't be butting one on whichever pistol i get, it was just the 1st pic I found.
