I\'ve owned three Rough Rider .22s. I decided to trade up to the top of American Heritage\'s .22 line, and bought a steel-framed version with day-glow front and rear sights and a 9\" barrel. It outshoots my Ruger Single-Six with both types of ammunition. That\'s no knock on the Ruger - it\'s an excellent gun - but the Rough Rider is REALLY accurate and easy to use against dark backgrounds, thanks to those sights, and it\'s very powerful with magnums, thanks to the long barrel and the tiny cylinder gap. The long barrel also quiets .22 CBs, and makes Aguila\'s Colibri rounds almost noiseless.
In short, I like the gun very much. It can be everything from a backyard plinker to a serious defensive arm against small predators. I suppose a real expert could even take down deer-sized game with it if he were desperate enough...
