I'm a small framed woman and I have a S&W K22 that I just love to shoot. (great stress relief)
What's everyone else like to shoot?
 
I like shooting Browning hi-power .40's, or my jericho .40 :D both are fun
 
My 44 magnum Super Blackhawk. I do a lot of open sight long range shooting and I love it, recently I cut a pvc stick in half at 320yds with less than 10 rounds with a Ruger Redhawk, so I am in the market for a redhawk 44 not the new snub-nose with the extension on the barrel but the old model.

We have 2 groups of handguns in our house. I'm big and bulky and like revolvers. My favorites (at the moment) are a 45 Colt Blackhawk, a 357 mag Blackhawk Flattop, and a K-22 with 8 3/8" barrel (with the sweetest trigger ever). My wife is tiny and prefers automatics. Her favorites are a heavy barrel Ruger MK II and a CZ 75b in 9mm. Our standard joke is that since she's a foot and a half closer to the ground, she doesn't mind policing the brass. ;)

SG When I get my video camera. I will post some videos of me shooting at a saw blade at around 600 yds and I will have a range finder hopefully rigged up to read with the camera. I am supposed to be shooting some longer distance (it has been said around 800) but I dont know when that is going to happen
 
My 8" Python shooting 1 gal. milk jugs at 100 yrds is almost as much fun as shooting .22 rim fire.It just doesn't get any better than .22 IMHO.
 
S&W 22A and my Beretta PX4 in 9mm.


That is as far as handguns go.
I also love shooting my .17HMR and it just might edge out the handguns.
 
I had a Taurus 82 .38spl with the Houge monogrip on it. One of the best target guns I have ever owned and at a minimal investment too. I sold it for a CC automatic and missed it ever since. Its empty spot has recently been filled with a S&W 64.
 
For me I love the Big bores & the dirt& dust they kik up but for general range fun This is the 1

My favorites are the .44's. I have more then a good share of .44's in the safe including S&W .44 Spls. I don't load the .44's hot as I like the velocity at 950 fps to 1100 fps.

It was a S&W 627 .357 but after purchasing a Colt Trooper MK III in .357 with an action that a Python can only hope for I have my new favorite!
 
I like the ones that are loaded & ready to shoot. My favorite would be my P series Rugers P 90 DC & P89 DC but I just bought a PT24/7 DS C 9mm that I like so far & may move up to being my favorite.
 
I got my first pistol long ago and it is a Colt Woodsman Target. Its my favorite and the Woodsman was a favorite of my late dad as well. I carry it in the woods chamber empty in my back pocket butt down. Thats the one I shoot the most.

I have other handguns.

There happens to be a S&W M63 4" next to me here at the computer. It needed some attention!
 
anything that has a trigger and goes boom! partial to .38/.357 wheel guns, but also love shooting my 1911's, P239, and .22 semis
 
Well, the purists are probably going to gag, but if I had to pick only one handgun to take to the range, it would be my Rossi 851, 3" stainless.

Damn, but that's a fun revolver to shoot. Big oversized grips, mild recoil (with 148-gr. wadcutters or even 158-gr. semi-wadcutters), and of course that ultra-cool vented-rib barrel.

Yep, I'm Lord of the Range with that puppy.
 
I've got a 6" blue steel 6 shot Taurus model 94 that goes to the range with me every time. I think it's the closest you can get to the K22. But I recently replaced a Taurus 4" model 66 that was stolen from me about 20 years ago. I picked up a S&W 4" model 66 and have been having a lot of fun with it. I had forgotten how much the .357 mags are. I'm enjoying it even more than my 44 mag.
