Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires M17 - Hi Standard - Colt OM 22 - Browning 150 - S&W M41 Colt Woodsman

ElmerKeith: Of the brands/models you are considering I own and have shot:

Model 17
Model 18
Many models of High Standard
Smith & Wesson Model 41
Colt Woodsman & Huntsman
All kinds of Browning BuckMarks, Nomads and Medalists
Several styles/models of Colt 22 revolvers

Of these I would recommend you seek out a used but as new "pre-hillary lock" Smith & Wesson Model 17 with 6" barrel and the full lug feature, target grips, target trigger and target hammer.
I have a couple of these (4" and a 6") and they are amazing!
Best of luck to you with whichever you choose.
Hold into the wind
