In a revolver, I'd have to take a Freedom Arms. I've currently got a S&W 617 4" no dash, have had several K22's of various vintages (and not all is sunshine and roses with those revolvers; two of mine were finicky about ammunition, the other two spit lead. My 617 has neither failing), and have a S&W 317 3" no lock and a Ruger SP101 .22lr 4.2". All are fine revolvers. The Freedom Arms revolvers in 22lr I've handled are, however, on a whole other plane of precision and accuracy. If you want the "best," and in stainless, that'd be my pick. I don't own one. Yet. For what I paid trying out K22's I could have bought a Freedom Arms and been done with it.
