Jackalope Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Have been looking at the Ruger MkIII 22/45 and the SR-22. Anyone have experience with either or better yet, both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sukhoi_fan Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I suggest you avoid any Mark III Ruger. You'd be better off finding a good used Mark II if you're stuck on the Ruger Mark series .22s. Have no opinion of the SR-22, but I'd suggest you thoroughly DYODD on that one. I've got a Browning Buckmark and love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackalope Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 There QC issues with the Mark III? I'll have to check out the buckmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Keep your eyes out for a nice old High Standard. Like a Supermatic Citation. One of the best triggers I've ever pulled. Scary accurate too. I chase shotgun hulls out to 50 yards off hand. I also have a Sports King from around 1953 (I still have the receipt and original box for this one, it went for a princely sum of like 58 dollars back when the dollar had some value), it is okay, but the newer 1973 production (if i recall) Supermatic Citation blows it away in terms or ergonomics, accuracy and parts availability. They're super reliable with even bulk pack ammo. We knock down a brick and it just keeps chugging along. Your thumbs get tired of loading mags before anything else. Brownells supports them quite well. I've rebuilt a lot of both of them from the previous owners WECSOG escapades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seiler Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I have a Ruger Mark III Target & love it! Very accurate, nice factory trigger. The next .22 will be the SR22. Someday I would love to pick up the Smith & Wesson 351PD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
