How much weight is enough in a mostly steel, fairly long-barrel pistol in .22LR really isn't an issue in a "casual" target, plinking, or hunting firearm, and neither is accurate "rapid fire" with these steel Rugers, since muzzle flip isn't an issue. I have no idea what the practical reasons are for Ruger to offer 6.88" barrels on its Mark III's. I've never seen any valid evidence these longer barrel Rugers shoot better or faster than the Rugers with the 5.88" barrels, assuming all the pistols involved are the "steelies." I don't know how the polymer Rugers in that caliber shoot. I suppose you have never really looked at the .22s they use in the rapid fire events. Most actually have a big weight on the end of the barrel. Muzzle flip may not mean much shooting water bottles in slow fire but when 5 shots in 4 seconds is necessary to be competitive at all, a little flip is the difference between playing the game or going home. Most people can't come close to affording a Pardini but they may want something that is not a belly gun. My woodsman has a 6" barrel and I think it has a very good balance. OTOH if you are hanging a can on the end, you already have a nose heavy gun. |
