Still have the Ruger standard my dad went halves with me on when I was 11. Now 27 yrs later I am amazed it is still goin strong, and it still comes with me every range trip. As it stands at this rate it will outlast me.

My Taurus is one of the few guns I regret buying. I still have it (model 94 ultralight) but only because I don't sell or trade guns very often. I wish I had bought a Ruger instead but plan on picking one up soon.

I can't say too much against the Taurus 22 revolver i looked at the 357 tracker and after trying it out i bought a Ruger gp 100 ,hands down it's a better gun.
I dont own any Taurus handguns, so i dont think that you would have some of the problems that the larger cal Taurus revolvers have, but i do own several Rugers and imo they make a great value.
Buy the Ruger.

I own 3 Ruger .22 autos and love all of them. DA revolvers are also fun and have a different appeal and different capabilities - the revolver handles a greater variety of ammo more easily. Taurus revolvers are very hit and miss as far as quality is concerned the only way I would consider one is if I could shoot it first.

I have owned both an can tell ya that the ruger wins with me !!

the taurus was pretty accurate but its consistency went away pretty fast as the barrel heated up !

In my opinion the Ruger is THE 22lr pistol of choice ...

For hunting I would suggest something longer than 4".

Ruger MKIII Hunters are great guns, a little on the expensive side but very accurate. Don't sweat the cleaning part. Some people get nervous because of all the bad rap. My first tear down and assembly took all of 10 minutes after that about 5 min. There are great videos on the net and if you follow the book you will get get thru it just fine. Don't let the cleaning hype push you away from a great and accurate pistol.
