gregp74.....I own 3 of the 4 guns mentioned in your original post. I would just point out that the GP100 is more than just a "little" bigger than the SP101. I've read quite a few comments from GP100 .22 owners that said they didn't enjoy shooting the diminutive round in a such a large platform. Overkill is what I think they meant.
All my SP101's had heavy triggers but that's easily remedied with a spring kit (even by a novice).
I much prefer shooting .22's out of single actions but that's not something you're interested in.
Have you considered one of H&R offerings? They're available for about $150-250 or so less than a new SP101. 9 Shot. The top break action is very convenient and somewhat unique. Frankly, I'm surprised that more makers don’t have this as an option in their .22 caliber line ups (might be a production cost/bottom line) issue.
