I want to get a 22lr target pistol and I dont know witch one to get!

I was looking at the ruger mark ii or mark iii but I was told the older ones that they dont make any more are better!!

I was allso looking at the browning buck marks but i dont know what one to get!

I like the Buck Mark Bullseye Target Stainless, is this a good target gun.

I just want it for plinking but I want the best gun for the money!!!

and sence Anschutz dont make pistols I dont know what to get.

I don't think you would go wrong with a Ruger MK II or MK III. You may also want to look into a S&W Model 41. They are great target pistols, but they come with a higher price tag than the Rugers.

The little Buckmarks will drive tacks!

If you are looking for a good pistol try finding a older smith@wesson 42 or a High Standard Victor all of the
pistol like Rugers an Browning are not for the serious shooter.

Rugers are very dependable and accurate, I haven't had much experience with Brownigs, but they just aren't popular in my area. I would definately recommend a Ruger though, I looked at one yesterday actually.

I've generally had good luck with Rugers, but the Mk II I bought 2 years ago is a POS. I had to send it back to be rebarreled because it wouldn't eject live rounds. They put on a whole new receiver and barrel and now it will not chamber reliably. Since I compete with my pistols, this is unacceptable.

If I were buying today I would be trying a Browning or low end S&W. Beretta has an inexpensive .22 called the Neos. Very good reviews. If you want a first classs newer gun, the S&W Model 42 will work.

If you only want a plinker or for casual competition, there's a lot of good stuff for $250-$350.

Don't let me scare you away from Ruger, but right now I'm ticked with them.
