best bang for the buck

If .22 is what you want stay away from the walther p22 several people on the boards including myself have had reliability issues with them.

Really?? I've heard that they're ammo sensitive but not unreliable! Mine has a shit ton of ammo thru it and eats the federal bulk packs but not the Remington bulk packs from walmart.

It's almost always the ammo. I've never seen a rimfire gun choke on CCI mini-mags - bulkpack, not so much. If you're remotely considering use of a 22 as a defense gun, I wouldn't try saving money on the ammo.

hey all been away for awhile. Wow didn't mean to cause a ruckus. She is an experienced shooter. I have a shotgun and a Berreta .32 at her house alone which is what she would use. I should have clarified that, sorry. Just advice on the best .22 handgun you all think is best please.

In that case, my next .22 pistol is gonna be a Buckmark or Ruger MKII/III

I have the P22 and its fun for plinking but I want a plinking/target pistol(hence above). What do you want it to do?

I have a Buckmark pistol and a Buckmark rifle. Great guns. They always run and I have never had a problem with any ammo I shoot through them.

Plinking and whistle pig killing.

Plinking and whistle pig killing.

Well I'd go with either the Browning Buckmark or Ruger MKII/III since they come in all sorts of varieties

Best .22 pistol?.... My Colt Diamondback 4" barrel.

Thinking I might need one of the soon to be released Browning 1911-22. I always wanted one of the small auto Llamas that shot 22. Never came across the chance to pick one up decent.
