My 3"barreled S&W model 317.
Closest recorded range Chrony kill (3 feet with witnesses)
My stainless Smith and Wesson Kit Gun does it for me. It has the mechanical accuracy of the larger and heavier K-22, but is a bit harder to shoot well, due to it smaller size and weight.
Disclaimer: The above is not holy writ. It is just my opinion based on my experience and knowledge. Your mileage may vary.
The one I shoot most is a S&W M34. I carry a J frame .38 everyday, and use the .22 for left hand practice. The most fun? That would be a Colt MT Woodsman, 4”.
I could barely see it at twenty feet but I nicked it once. Fun stuff.

Had this for a long time and as my old eyes have trouble with open sights I put a dot on it. I glued (using aircraft proseal sealant) a piece of 3/8 .22 rail on to mount the sight. I can remove the rail and sealant at anytime and put the rear sight on, works great.

Back when I was just starting to shoot with a Smith model 15, my LGS talked me into a matching S & W Model 18. I'd then usually start a practice session with a box or two of .22s, then 50-100 rounds of .38 special. If I did my job right, tghat M18 would put them in the X riing all day.
