Ruger SR22 pistol owners

[mr ed]

Some questions for those that own or have owned a SR22 pistol.
How is/was the accuracy ?
What ammo did it like best?
Mine shoots all over the place with high velocity but groups quite well with standard velocity.
Which is alright since I bought it to be used with a suppressor.
Any other comments?

I've never had any negative issues with mine. It's cycled everything I've fed it, and its as accurate as I can be, but I've only used cheapie ammo in it.

Same, when I had one it ate bulk ammo just fine. What ever I threw at it just worked.

I used it in steel challenge and wanted something that I could thread a can on and buying a threaded barrel was more cost than to sell it and get a new 22/45 with a slightly longer barrel. I was able to do just fine with it during the matches however and shot some decent times.

I wanted one, but I had some really bad experiences with the Walther P-22 which is basically the same design.

My sons has been great so far. Haven’t had one failure. Fun pistol for sure.

Haven't had a failure yet, but I noticed accuracy issues with Winchester X and Rem Golden bulk. Seems to love federal bulk and CCI minimags.

Only thing that mine won't shoot is the old style bird shot that has the metal instead of the plastic caps.

Bought one, and my daughter shot it, and had to buy me another one, I've lost count of how many thousands of rounds both have had through them now. These were never designed to be target pistol's like new MK-IV's, but their accuracy is good, and depending on the ammunition used they can surprise you. Besides a couple of good field holster's, nine magazines each, there wasn't anything else to do for them besides getting two on order SR22R rifle's that's a cool looking match for them.
