You may check around and you might find a used H&R 22 revolver that is pretty good for well under your price range. The H&R 999 Sportsman comes to mind. The H&R's aren't Colts or Smiths, but they aren't bad overall. That was my first revolver that I owned years ago.
In case I didn't say it, the Ruger Single Six is an excellent revolver and is a very good value in a 22 revolver. I don't own one. Just don't need one with the other choices I have. The best choice is probably a Smith Model 17 (or current model 617) double action for an all around 22 revolver. It just doesn't fit within your budget constraints unless you are lucky and find a good one used.
