Rikman,
you started out the right way, with a blued older S&W revolver! I have gone through the expense of buying a Korth rimfire revolver and the K-22 is a close second in performance, for just one fifth of the price.
I have planted the seed - and I am certain that it will grow into a tall tree of love. A long love affair with the traditional, blued S&W rimfire revolvers.
I cherish mine every bit as much as my Korth. I did my most spectacular shots with it, when my eyesight wa still 35/20.
