Wishoot Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 After selling my Buckmark Camper to a friend, I quickly realized that my collection was missing a semiauto 22LR pistol. After over -analyzing every option available, I decided to pull the trigger on a new MKIV Target. Gallery of Guns had a very good price too. I picked it up on Tuesday, cleaned it (OMG what a joy compared to the Buckmark) and took it to the range this yesterday. I shot 100 rounds of Mini-Mags followed by 50 rounds of Aguila Super Extra and 50 rounds of CCI SV's. Everything cycled just fine. No malfunctions. Accuracy was very good for me at least. At 10 yards, I was able to keep most of my shots well within the 9-ring of a 3" Shoot-n-See target (I'm NOT a very good). It seemed to do best with the CCI Standards, but not by a big margin. The trigger was decent. Without being able to measure the pull, I would put it between 4-5 lbs. Minimal take-up. Reset was more than acceptable. I'm going to leave the trigger alone until I've put 1,000 or more through it. I'm guessing it will improve a bit. The stock sights are okay, but I really needed a high contrast target to achieve any degree of accuracy. I'm thinking FO's may be in my future. All-in-all, this is a very worthy replacement for my Buckmark. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaBud Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Good to hear! I've got 5 older Ruger MKs I'm going to sell and replace with MKIVs. Life's too short to fuss with some things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishoot Posted August 24, 2018 Author Share Posted August 24, 2018 If they're MK I or MK II's, I'd hang on to those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minderasr Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Put a red dot on it. I put a Primary Arms MD-RGB II on mine and love it. Combined with the Volquartsen accurizing kit and I'm doing quarter sized groups at 30 feet, which is very good for me. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spats McGee Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Congratulations! Now that .22LR is back, I can shoot it without feeling guilty. I'd almost forgotten how much fun .22s are. I have a Mk IV 22/45 Lite and Mrs. McGee has the 22/45 Target. Great pistols. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windowasher Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) I use this one for Steel Challenge... The only "problem" I have is it starts to have feed/eject issues after about 700 rouinds. I clean it and they go away. I use mainly Eley ammo thru it Edited September 24, 2018 by windowasher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spats McGee Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I don't usually like bi-tone guns, but I do like that copper-colored upper. That's what I wanted, but I wound up with the black upper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
