Save your money and buy a kit gun, preferably a Model 34-1, with a 4" barrel and chambered for the .22LR. It's a lifetime investment. I've had mine 50 years.

How about a Smith & Wesson?
I love my S&W 22A, 7". Bought it in 1999 and probably have 25 to 30,000 rounds through it. It swallows the cheap Wally World bricks with no complaint. Added the target grips and Barska Red Dot scope a fews years back. Reliable and lots of fun to shoot.

I own a few .22 Auto's also, but never thought of them as Camp Guns.

+1 on the M63 if you can find one. It is a very handy little revolver.
