Ordered a new Pistol

[Slider]

I ordered a new 22 yesterday. Its a Ruger Mark111 22/45 Hunter. Anyone have this model? How do you like it?

[bowhuntin]

I don't have one but my buddy has a ruger .22 similar to that one. Never got to shoot it. He seems to like it though.

I have a Mark II 22/45 and love it.

Had one for a few seasons, almost forgot...wow what's that say when you can't remember all the guns you have had?  LIFE IS GOOD!!

It shot like a champ

I want to die like Grandpa...quietly in my sleep, not kicking and screaming like the passengers of his car!

I want to die in bed, at the age of 102, shot by my 25yo girlfriends jealous husband

Iceman thats what I bought it for!!!

I put a HiViz front sight, and now looking for the rear set... awesome, wickedly accurate.

Assuming you like the grip, you made a great choice. Very good shooters. I almost bought one myself, but couldn't get used to the THIN grip of the 22/45. They are great shooters, though.
Check out rimfirecentral or google 22/45 grips mods for instructions on mating 1911 grips to it...will make it look a little nicer and feel EXACTLY like a 1911, if that interests you.

I just couldn't get used to the thin grip, so I ended up with a used MKII and a Neos 6" inox instead. Both will do ~1" @ 25yds, rested, with irons. I bought 'em for plinking around the farm, and a little small game hunting.

Enjoy it!

I love the target grip on mine, fits my big greasy hand real good! 

sort of a pain with holstering, but worth the gain in accuracy for me...

I love my MKII grip as well.
Have you held a 22/45? What are your thoughts?

[ICEMAN]

No I haven't. I usually like a beefy grip, small grips just sort of disappear in my paw. Maybe I need to go check out the 22/45.... 

[Bscman]

Well, I don't think anyone here is gunna come between you and your "beefy grip."

Nice shootin, btw.

Bird was out there a ways, took three rounds to plink it down, running in the grass ahead of me. After I shot and walked up, three more busted up and gone.....

JDB, where did you see the ghost ring...?

I was thinking of the two tiny HiViz dots, line all three up and plink....

I like the aimpoint red dot site. It leaves a small ragged hole
