M18 4" should I or shouldn't I?

cbunix23,

K frame .22s are known to have tight chambers. After a few cylinder fulls of firing they tend to get harder to feed. Bring a brush to the range with you and scrub the chambers every so often. The next size up brush is recommended by some, because you are not cleaning the bore but the chamber. I think it is the .243/6mm size.
 
I shot about 250 rounds through it the past couple days. I don't mind the grip or trigger shoe as much as I thought I would. I still may change them to see if I can make it feel more comfortable.

The only trouble I had is inserting inserting certain brands of ammo was harder than others, had to give them a firm shove, or ejecting the empty cases.

It's a keeper!

I just need to work on, and improve, my shooting technique and it will be dead on.

Congrats on a great find. I would enter a little word of advice about the trigger shoe, however. Depending on the style of holster you use, it could be dangerous by extending too far to the side and dragging as it enters the holster. Just as a matter of safety, I no longer use trigger shoes on any of my revolvers if they will be placed in a holster. JMHO, YMMV.
