if you really want a depenable and accurate 22 get the ruger mk111 you will be very happy with it. i have the m&p 22 and it is a good trainer for someone that has it's bigger brother, but i am not impressed with it's accuracy (3''-4'' at 25yds)and reliablity(dose not like the cheaper ammo) my ruger will shoot groups half that and eat anything i feed it.....
