I’ve had the Ruger 22 Mag Revolver for a few months now. The accuracy is impressive, especially at 25 yards. It’s become my go-to for target practice.

Glad to hear that, robert69! I’ve read mixed reviews, especially about reliability during field use. Have you taken it hunting?

I find it reliable in the field too. I’ve shot several small game and it performed well. Just make sure to use quality ammo for better results.

I’ve noticed that the trigger pull is a bit heavy. It affects me during long sessions, but the accuracy makes up for it in the end.

That’s a good point, sue78. Lots of revolvers have heavier pulls. How does that affect your groupings?

Honestly, once I get used to it, I manage decent groupings. I think practice makes perfect with this one. Anyone else find their accuracy improved over time?

Definitely! I started off rough but now feel more confident. Speaking of confidence, how does it perform in terms of range? Anyone try long-distance shooting?

I’ve taken it out to 50 yards, and while it shoots, you have to compensate a lot more. It’s not meant for long range, but it’s fun nonetheless!

That’s true! It’s a great revolver for what it is. I’m considering getting one, but what about the recoil? Is it manageable?

The recoil is very mild. I’d even say it’s enjoyable. Perfect for a day at the range without tiring out too quickly. Plus, it keeps things lively!

That sounds fantastic! I love a revolver that’s fun to shoot. Does anyone have issues with reliability despite that?

Some users might say they’ve had failure-to-fire incidents. In my experience, as long as I stick with quality ammo, I have no issues.

I’m curious about the comparison to other models. How does the Ruger 22 Mag stack up against similar revolvers?

In terms of performance, I think it rivals others like the Smith & Wesson. But price-wise, it’s a winner!

Looking at all this feedback, I feel like I need to try one out. Anyone care to lend me one at the range? Just kidding! But I am definitely interested!

I’ve had the Ruger 22 Mag Revolver for a few months now. The weight is just right for me, making it easy to handle, and the grip is really comfortable even for extended shooting sessions.

I completely agree! I love how the grip feels in my hand. It’s surprisingly ergonomic for a revolver. Have you noticed how it affects your aim?

I’ve found the 10-shot capacity fantastic for target practice. It balances well in my hands, although I did feel slight fatigue after a long session - just something to keep in mind.

That’s interesting, I haven’t experienced fatigue yet. Maybe it’s the way I grip it? How are you holding it exactly?
