I own three DW revolvers and one DW pistol pack. Two are .22's with 6" and 8" barrels. I have owned and still own .22 revolvers that are smoother in double action and handier to carry, (DW .22s are large and heavy, esp if with the heavy underlug barrel) but never have I had a more accurate .22.
Likewise, my two DW .357s are not as smooth as my S&Ws. The action tends to stack like a Colt in DA, but even heavier. The single action on all of my DW revolvers is icecicle crisp and light as one could hope for. They are not a defense gun, per se, but an accuracy gun.
I am a mediocre pistol shooter at best. Still, with my DW revolvers, I can put 6 for 6 in the black of a 10" target at 100 yards with either my .22s or .357s. Single action, of course. That is dead deer in my book.
