I would like a .22 revolver that shoots whatever .22 ammo I buy. Does such a beast exist? How do I find one? How do I know it does work the way I wish before buying it?
If you get the .22 Mag with the spare LR cylinder it's not an issue, but shooting .22 Short down a chamber the length of a .22 Mag is interesting.Isn't the ability to fire any type of .22 rimfire a trait of all .22 revolvers other than .22 WMR?
My experience with .22 LR in revolvers has been this: If the it doesn't fire, it's the ammo, not the revolver.
The Heritage has that silly cross-bolt type safety (which is there because import rules require some sort of safety and that's their solution, but for me it's a deal breaker). I think the Ruger Wrangler is an ugly gun, and there's no magnum cylinder option, but I would choose a Wrangler over a Heritage just because of the safety issue.chris downs said:After shooting this morning (I love Mondays!), I went to the LGS and saw a Wrangler and a Heritage. Both seemed very nice. They are asking $200 for either. There was also a $700 Smith that was WAY nice.
