Taurus TX22 vs Ruger Mark 4 vs Browning Buckmark

[@tiffinhappy9744]

Have the Buck mark and love it. Just plain fun

[@jamesbarros950]

Thank you. I really appreciate this. Based on this and a few others, I just put down a deposit on $300 used buckmark. Really eager to spend some time with it. Thank you for this great breakdown. :)

[@jamesbarros950]

just did my first deep clean on my buckmark, and I think you're right, you need to accept that you're going to take some time cleaning, but when you do, it's not an unpleasant process.

[@skoodercrunch2821]

Wow! I think I paid $250 for my BM Field 5.5 back in 1994.

[@Rick-hu9vc]

Bought the Mark iv and was underwhelmed. Easy takedown for sure, but it was surprisingly unreliable trying to shoot in cold weather. Likely an issue more with the metal mags than the gun, but net result was that it would not cycle any ammo reliably in very cold outdoor conditions. That is NOT acceptable. Traded it for the Taurus TX22 SCR Toro several months ago. The tX is incredible. Zeroed my CT red dot and it's dead on target and rarely have misfeeds or other issues. Taurus has really hit their stride.

[@dansgarage4572]

The full size rifle dot is an interesting choice

[@davidsawyer6003]

I have the S&W Victory and I love it, I chose it primarily for the sights that come standard. Putting the rail on for a dot is very east and the take down is easy although you do need to use an allen wrench. It is also a very accurate gun.

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

Great explanation of the 3 guns and what they are best at! I always wanted a Ruger MKIV but couldn't justify the cost. I finally bought a TX22 in Dec 21 and then the Competition slide/barre/sights/guide rod and spring for 199.99 from Taurus. After all that I am nearing the price of a MKIV Ruger but I do have a regular "Glock looking" TX 22 or a Comp version with the longer 5 1/4" bull barrel and a Holosun micro dot. Someday I still hope to acquire a Ruger. Small correction tho the TX22 holds 16 rounds and mags are cheap! I bought 5 for 20.00 each. I hate to guess what Ruger and Brownings are. However they are metal and the Taurus are plastic. I like that I can load up 100rnds of 22LR and just keep switching mags till its gone tho :)

[@davidreed6264]

I have a Ruger mark 2 bull barrel and has been a great accurate gun for decades

[@Yahweh-Chase-Bella]

This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for, trying to decide my first 22 handgun. Obviously I'd like a Volquartsen but money is a thing 😅

[@DennisHicks78749]

I know you said the Taurus is good training for modern carry weapons, but many people love and shoot the 1911. The Ruger 22/45 is designed for the same grip angle as a 1911, and similar controls. I actually bought my 22/45 for that purpose, and I think it would have been a good thing to mention in your video.

[@scott331]

Tandemkross has trigger mods for the tx22 pistol giving it 2 Lbs trigger pull and a Crisper trigger

[@asgrimurhartmannsson]

Not sure that these will outperform a rifle. Sounds outlandish. I'd need to see that to believe it. The Buckmark is rather on the accurate side though. Mine has a thinner barrel, likely less accurate than yours.

[@JohnWickBabaYaga556]

I’m guessing he’s referring recoil on short targets. I’m researching 22s and Ruger 22/45 what I’m looking at for recoil accuracy easy breakdown and fun.

[@asgrimurhartmannsson]

@@JohnWickBabaYaga556 For fun I'd recommend a Ruger Wrangler. The most fun one I have tried, anyway. Bolt action rifles tend to be more fun than auto. For accuracy: CZ or Anshutz, right out of the box. Savage is OK, great for the price, but I'd recommend the ones with wood furniture. The plastic in those bends and interferes with the barrel.

[@euphoric_performance]

Browning buttmark is what i kept hearing

[@Dovenpels]

😂😂😂

[@graymann7762]

Tandemkross makes a trigger for the tx22

[@rjyoungjr]

What adapter is used to mount the red dot? It looks like picatinny was used, but I thought it used a rmr? I really like the pistol but want to mount a red dot using picatinny. Thx.

[@TexasCorgiGun]

My tx22 competition its been very unreliable, all kind of problems with it. Im looking at the Browning

[@GordonWeis]

I had problems with CCI mini mags. Switch to Federal AutoMatch and all problems went away.

[@shoesters6298]

Buckmark FTW

[@TARandFEATHERS]

Anyone know about a holster for a 22/45 with pic rail under the barrel like in this video??

[@xdivineHART]

Question!? I have a tx22, a romeo Zero and a romeo 5. Is there a reason why you used a romeo 5 vs a pistol red dot???

[@TheGogobutt]

Simply said. Very good!

[@Yahweh-Chase-Bella]

Also I was debating a 22 mag but they're basically the same price to shoot as a 9mm, but I think the mini mags are like 22lr price wise does that sound right?

[@clutchcargo1239]

In my experience, the Ruger and the Browning are both much more accurate. The Taurus is generally cheaper with 5 extra rounds. They are all decent guns, it comes down to what you can afford... How much money or how much accuracy are you willing to give up? If you can, get them all and find out.

[@SprakanaKerum]

Accuracy has to do with the shooter, not the gun

[@TheFullNeilson]

Accuracy has to do with both the shooter and the gun.

[@714SNF]

Thx for the video! Do you have the Sig P322 or Glock 44?

[@tcchrist]

Imo ruger seems like the clear winner here. That ease of takedown plus the threaded barrel is unmatched.

[@eawilkes]

Great video! Do you prefer the larger red dots compared to the a more traditional micro red dot for pistols? If so why? I would think weight is a factor, but maybe there are other benefits that would cover that. This is the first video where I've seen the romeo 5 on a pistol. It obviously must work, but its not something you see often so I'm just curious on your take. Thanks for the video.

[@TheFullNeilson]

The main reason I use the Romeo 5 on these handguns is because they are inexpensive, closed emitter, great battery life, and they have been extremely reliable. I probably own more than 10 of them. You would not want to mount this red dot on any reciprocating slide. But for these handguns it works very well.

[@eawilkes]

I went with the Romeo 5 for my Competition model and I can say it is nothing short of sweet. It has been a game changer. Thanks again for the video.

[@alexvela6067]

Wich is the model of the mira?

[@rjyoungjr]

What holster are you using with the Taurus with that red dot. I wanna do the same set up but can’t find a holster for it? I want one for steel challenge. Thx.

[@armedfarm3429]

Ah, you don't even shoot them side by side to do some ammo target test, unreal. The Buck mark would have cleaned house.

[@chrisbowman6698]

Would have easily cleaned up all that junk . Browning has always been the best across the whole board.

[@shellycalhoun7194]

I am a lefty ?..Who makes the best 22 for me?

[@tedwright1380]

The Browning is the only one available in my state.

[@Kcrunchymunch]

But it’s the best of the 3 also so there you go

[@tonyp2632]

Do you have a Passy-Muir device🤔

[@shooter22]

What did you use to be able to mount the Romeo to the TX22?

[@mmckerns]

Are you using an after market plate to mount the sig dot on the TX22?

[@TheFullNeilson]

Yes

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

They come with 2 reversable metal plates for the micro dots tho. I just mounted a Holosun HS407 A3 on mine today.

[@findkip]

How much are those Tarsus?

[@chrisgilbert2152]

dude, good info, BUT.. your monotone put me to sleep!

[@damagecontrol7]

that didn't really bother me, but the vocal-fry is off the charts.

[@BillO964]

I wish firearms reviews would review guns without all the unnecessary add ons like red dots, scoped, suppressors , aand the like . Just the out of box gun please. If you want to see that extra stuff, then do a separate review. Those accessories do not add to whether a firearm on its own functions reliably or accurately .

[@ArkyVarminter]

How do u know they are more accurate than rifles?

[@AndrewGodwin-oj3kf]

I bet he’s a good shot. Is just sharing his experience😂 Of course, if you have the Buckmark you will Want the Mark IV, visa versa. Thanks for the comparison guy

[@craigtayntor489]

[@myearshurtnoone1367]

the Taurus sucks i own one and cant wait to get rid of the POS

[@TheFullNeilson]

Sorry to hear that I have 5-10 thousand rounds through mine and it very rarely has a malfunction of any kind. It is the most reliable 22 handgun I have ever owned.

[@myearshurtnoone1367]

@@TheFullNeilson iv used cheap ammo cci mini mag and other ammo even after cleaning and oil it jams almost ever shot but all i see on YT is how much people like it, i guess i got one from a bad batch

[@belt1974123]

Maybe try sending it back to Taurus. My tx22 also functions without any issues.

[@cG-es8mb]

I just got the tx22 compact and shooting the Norma high performance ammo. First round went off but second didn’t feed. Out of my first 150 rounds I had 3 stove tops and 4 failure to eject. Hoping maybe gun has to get broken in some but when it didn’t fire the second round I was like, junk, everyone talks about how reliable it is. Maybe it will get better.

[@GordonWeis]

@@cG-es8mb Find the ammo that it likes. My TX22 Competition hates CCI Mini Mags but likes Federal Automatch.

[@brucepoole8552]

Browning clearly superior

[@qegalpal]

I can't make out what trigger you put on the Ruger, please let me know, thank you.
