Recommendations on a good .22.

Another vote for the Taurus; a solid revolver at a reasonable price. Mine shoots fairly tight groups on the range.

I am looking for a good .22 cal. revolver. Anyone have any recommendations?

A little info on you're primary use would be helpful. Single action or double? I'd tell anyone they wouldn't go wrong with revolvers from S&W or Ruger. Both American made & quality in either line. Spend a little more for quality & in the long run, you'll never regret it. (no matter what the product) Personally, I wouldn't recommend a Taurus over S&W or Ruger. JMO.

STR, I've read a number of reviews complaining about the 317's function (ejecting shells from cylinder) when it gets dirty. I've got to admit, it's one of the coolest revolvers I've ever handled though. What is it, 11-12 oz?

Depending what you want and how heavy you're willing to go, Taurus makes the M94 kit gun (I own the earlier M84 version) but they're heavy in SS. I like old school stuff and a Colt SAA in .22 or a Ruger .22 single action revolver are fun. That said, I only own .45 LC in that format.

All of em can do that that I've shot. 22LR is a dirty round really. I've not had trouble shooting mine and although a shell can sometimes stick its not that that prevents me from using it. Getting them out has not been much of an issue. Sometimes getting another in has been the reason to stop shootin' and clean the darn thing though becaue they don't quite want to sink all the way down and let ya close the cylinder.
