First gun I shot was a ruger 22lr revolver

[@kc-n-sassy]

i bought this gun to teach my mom to shoot and she still shoots it. 3000 + rounds and any weird things was caused by ammo im positive of that big box winchester and federal caused the bobbles. I got her some 22 stingers for it as well and it shoots like a dream.

[@hickok45]

+GuitarDudeXXX She should enjoy it.

[@GuitarDudeXXX]

Always. Along with the pre-instruction that I gave her, I had her watch the beginner series videos from the Ruger website. They were produced with a female instructor which, in my mind, was a plus for her. When we got to the range at Camp Atterbury, she handled & shot her firearm like a pro. I was impressed. Proud dad moment for sure!

Just received my SR-22 yesterday. Replaced guide rod & spring (Galloway). Greased slides & Rem oil on rest. Out on the range today. 30 feet distance. 1 ft targets.4 new mags. 5 different types ammo - CCI-SV, Rem-Thunderbolt, Rem-Golden, CCI-HP, and 50 very old rounds??? 232/250 on paper. No failures. No problems. Not bad for a 63 year old newbie shooter. Read every thread, review and you tube videos before I chose the Ruger. So far I am in plinker heaven. Heading out to the range again tomorrow !!!!!

[@shotgunsherman]

Amazing gun im in love with it. Its one of my EDC pistols, many dislike and disagree with carrying a .22 but I dont see anyone lining up to be shot by one.

[@bobthompson4918]

Any gun is better than a pointy stick when the SHTF 😉

[@sattercaster1]

I carry mine occasionally too. I guess people forget that the assassin's favor .22's much of the time. The biggest problem with .22 for edc imo is the unreliability of the ammo, not the gun......

[@Outthewaygunplay]

Everyone says that but in reality 22 lr is such a horrible round shot placement doesn't matter

[@FootballisLife862]

@@Outthewaygunplay OK stand it front of one and demonstrate

[@wcfd103]

Ryan Satter that is old ammunition. Modern quality 22lr is very reliable. Lucky gunner did a reliability video trying to get cci to fail and couldn’t. He put one batch of 500 in a vibrating brass tumbler for an hour and 500 more were exposed to salt water for 24 hours. 500 more were straight out of the box. There were zero failures of any kind.

[@taylorfournier7943]

Every video I've seen you post so far is very informative and professional. You stay honest even when a round doesn't chamber and I appreciate that a lot. Thank you for staying professionally honest and giving the info needed to make an informed purchase. God bless

[@stevestamps3173]

PJ MasterDiddy well hello there, peediddy.. only y'all have shootings! we have people here that respect their guns!! take care- heavy D

[@NiqqaJim]

steve stamps No, no. After Sandy hook they made availability of .22 ammo miniscule, now whenever places, especially Wal-Mart gets .22 ammo some people go out of their way to get to it first so it doesn't get bought out.

[@KenMileyJr]

PJ MasterDiddy Where do you get your info? There was a shortage because the .22LR is the most widely used caliber in the country and after Sandy Hook people panicked and started cleaning out ALL the ammo. Since more people use .22 and it's relatively inexpensive it sold out faster and has stayed sold out since. Ammunition companies have gone on record saying that they've been producing .22LR 3 shifts per day since. It will come back when people feel like they've horded enough!

[@NiqqaJim]

AwesomeFinish Exactly, because of shootings.

[@TnTBLACK95]

AwesomeFinish where are yo getting your info from?? The same factory that makes .22 also makes other caliber ammo. So why continually retool the factory to produce the least profitable ammo when you can produce something that is 3 to 4 times more profitable? So manufacturing is down and demand is up.

[@Rocknranchman]

Great review! I always use your reviews as a “last word or commentary” before purchasing a design! Thanks Hickok45!

[@forechunkukee]

Mr. Hickock, Thank you for your your time and effort in putting together these videos. They have done quite a bit to educate me on firearms, and safety and handling. It's thanks to this video, I decided on my first firearm, the SR22, and acquired it before it went off roster here in California. Keep up the great work!

[@soderlund416]

I've had this gun for almost a year. Great little 22. Feels nice in the hands and its fun to shoot. As far as the failure to feed issues. Mine started doing that a lot. Thought it was a mag issue at first. Then tried different ammo. Turns out its finicky when it gets dirty. I use this gun a lot for target practice. I find that if I clean it (I use break free CLP and a brass brush) every 200 to 400 rounds it solves the FTF issue.

I have watched this video at least three times. Tonight I tried "soft inserting" the mag on my SR22, and it always works properly. No need to "slap it in", at least in my experience. The SR22 is my favorite firearm thus far. It just works. I have probably 400? rounds through mine, without a single malfunction.

[@JFizoust]

I got a little Bersa Thunder 22 after liking my .380 so much. It's pretty fun to plink with at the range and cost me like 5-10 cents/round. The cost of a day at the range brought me from $80/day (9mm/380/40) to about $20 with 22LR, so the wife is happy about that. It's funny about ammo though. It likes CCI but a lot of others fail to eject.

[@dlegrande4257]

This video sold me on the Ruger SR22. I've been looking for a plinker, something reliable, something inexpensive in both price of the gun and ammo, and something that'll eat anything. And above all, something that'll be fun to shoot. This gun seems to have it all. I can't say I'm surprised as Ruger doesn't half-ass anything. Great video.

[@treadhead44]

Another great video. I've been wanting a semi auto .22 pistol for a while and have been torn between a few different ones. Finally decided to jump on one today when a local shop offered one I couldn't pass up. Got me a sr22 stainless. They even threw in some of that "rare" .22 ammo so I could play with it right away.

[@richardalexander8226]

Traded my Walther p22 away yesterday- had it two weeks, lost $150 on the trade. Got it for xmas from my wife. Sorriest pistol I ever owned. Got a Ruger SR22 in trade. Instantly all my ftf fte, ftc problems went away. Talked to Walther they told me to only use CCI mini mag. I was, but also wanted to use other ammo. Would not shoot other HI-Vel ammo, and most definitely no non-premium ammo. They said it was in the manual. It's not, only to use 22LR. If it takes a specific cartridge it should be posted on the box. Internet is full of videos on how to modify the Walther to make it work . I call BS on the Walther. I got the gun to shoot, not have to repair it new out of the box, or send it in new for warranty, or not be able to use it if I can't find special ammo.. Stay away from the Walthers- get a Ruger.

[@thepistolguy859]

Richard Alexander no manufacturer should make a gun that only shoots one brand/kind of ammo that's dumb I have a sr22 as well before I had a 130 dollar pheonix arms .22 and all it liked was Cci ammo almost everything else would fte or ftf so I bought the Ruger.

[@jseden]

That was how my Beretta 21a bobcat was.. basically a single shot gun with bulk ammo. Also no extractor so you couldn't just rack to clear&reload. Worked great with cci though

[@jseden]

bad bad mc bad It wasn't a .22 but Kimber 1911 was super reliable with anything.. seriously regret selling it and think i might get another with my stimulus check.

[@jseden]

bad bad mc bad For sure. I just feel like I see a lot of Kimber hate while my experience was just the opposite. Anyway, got my quarantine money.. ultimately it's a tough call between a nice 1911 or a mini14 folder. The later has been on my list for years.

[@jordansamson6071]

Lots of people online talking about how bad the .22 round is in terms of defense. Unlike 98% of them, I’ve actually seen people die from the round and a few others severely injured. Bullets, of any caliber, can you put a man down with just one, well placed shot.

[@leehughes3685]

Where that is true. I think many are referring to being in a self-defense situation. Having the adrenaline flowing, and everything going on around you it can be difficult to place that one well placed shot.

[@eurokid83]

CCI Stingers are fantastic in these semi-auto .22LR pistols, and in any .22LR firearm for that matter. Great ammo.

[@brianpartlow5530]

I like stingers! In pistols it gives you the fire ball, like you're shooting a big magnum round. You never get a dud either which is good if you ever use it as a carry gun.

I bought some tracer 22 rounds a few years back ~DON'T~ on the 3rd shot from my beat up old revolver it sounded kinda funny, nothing funny about the 4th shot, fire and lead came out everywhere except to end of the barrel. The 3rd round had stuck in the tube when I fired. Gives a whole new meaning to the words " gun shy". Had a tough time getting those rounds out and my old revolver clean up. Really lucky it was just 22 ammo and a strong old pistol.

I’m not a professional, but I do have a fair amount of range time with SR22’s since my wife and I each own one. They run great with higher velocity rounds like CCI Mini Mags, and not as well with standard velocity. Hickok45’s issues here look a lot like what happens with ours with the weaker rounds or bulk pack stuff.

[@sturmcat]

Just picked up a Ruger SR22PB today. Have not shot it yet, but looking forward to trying it out. Has great reviews and everybody has said it is reliable and well-built. Now on to thinking about the next pistol purchase!

[@ghoastfalcon]

Hickock45, you are a great example of what a gun owner should be. A buddy of mine told me about your gun videos, I have watched about 50 of them and just keep on watching them. In fact I purchased my Ruger SR22p from your recommendation, and from renting it to shoot a couple of time. Love the pistol, it is a great shooter and the only issue I have had with it is with some bulk Winchester ammo, it fouled the bore pretty bad. Anything CCI and Federal I have had 0 problems. Keep up the videos plz!

[@morris4069]

The wife bought a SR22 for her first gun. We've put several different type of ammo through it with reasonable results. The thunderbolt ammo I've had for years seemed to be the worst, but hey you get to teach clearing a malfunction. Other ammo worked fine, CCI blazer, mini mags solid, fed bulk .36gr HP, CCI standard velocity worked fine too. The high velocity ammo and .40gr bullet weights is the key to reliability. HVHPs or .40Gr standard V. The thunderbolts being old (10+yrs) are not reliable in a 10/22 so fresh ones may work better, I'm just not going to pay the price for junk ammo when you can get crappy ammo for the same price.

I have one. It's a great little gun. Buy some bulk ammo and it's all-day fun. I never get tired of shooting it. Great job as always, hickok45!

[@jasonccalhoun]

ENOUGH! I've watched like 5 of your videos and after each one... I WANT ONE! Seriously, I'm going to go broke.

Between the wife and I we have put over 2k rounds through ours and it never fails w CCI Mini-Mag, but the bulk stuff caused lots of problems. She keeps it full of CCI when she carries

[@christianVSR]

Excellent review!

[@SailorJohn34]

i've had mine since 2012 as well.. now it's got well over 50k rounds thru it.. and still just as reliable as any other pistol with good ammo.. polished internals... trigger job all done at home.

If I had to describe this pistol in one word it would be “fun”. The ergonomics on this pistol is off the charts. It fit both our hands like a glove. We took several of our own guns to the range yesterday including an older Ruger MKll 22/45. I decided to rent a Ruger SR 22. The trigger on the SR -22 was a good one as you have a small amount of take up and a nice predictable break. My older Ruger has a mushy trigger that makes it hard to tell when it’ll break

I recently got into shooting 22 because shooting 45acp is too expensive. Its so fun I keep buying more new 22 handguns! I been using CCI 40 grain.
