The Ruger SR22 Semi Auto Pistol is a do-it-all .22 pistol for shooters who really appreciate style and even small game hunting. It is easy to field-strip, fun to shoot, and will run reliably with a wide variety of ammunition (not just high-velocity)

Ruger SR-22
I purchased a new Ruger SR-22 for two reasons. I wanted to practice prior to on duty qualification and did not want to spend the money for .40 cal ammunition to feed my Glock. Second,I wanted a light weight hand gun I could put in my back pack while bow hunting. I ran across a good deal on an SR-22 and snapped it up. I love the features and the light weight. It is a tack driver, more accurate than my old Mk II and much handier. The first shot double action trigger pull is a bit stiff, but oh well. I would highly recommend it.

Fun to shoot
I was in the market for a .22 pistol for cheap practice. I had my eye on P22, Sig Mosquito, Bersa .22, and this one. When the gentleman at Impact Guns here in Ogden handed me the SR22, I was sold on how it fit my hand. The inverted safety doesn't bother me because most of the weapons I've owned didn't have safeties anyway. The decocker feature could be practical. I wish I could say that I've had zero jams, but if I did, I'd be lying. I'm sure that the ammunition is more at fault than the weapon. I wasn't too put off by that, as I expected it. I used Federal high velocity copper-plated and Winchester Wildcat high velocity. There were no CCI mini-mags or Stingers on the shelf when I went. Next week, I'll bring my own and see how I do. The weapon serves it's purpose. My carry weapon is a Glock 30 SF. I feel that after shooting my .22, I tend to do better with my Glock and vice versa. I must say that I am pleased that this weapon is so easy to field strip and clean. The sights on it are awesome. I'm still going through the break-in process, so I'm sure any shortcomings I have now will most likely be a non-issue down the road, especially if I choose the kind of ammo it seems to like the most and stick with it. All and all, it is a great .22, especially for the money. It's high quality inside and out. Not to mention, it is made in the USA!

Great gun for the money, fun and cheap to shoot
Bought this for my wife after reading reviews here, in magazines, and on internet. My wife loves it, I enjoy shooting it myself, even my stepson enjoyed it. (He prefers 9mm mostly.) Jams? A couple of hangups, but it seems to improve with use, and to be fair, .22's have alwayys been jammers in every gun I've ever tried. This one does far better than most and it's easy to clear. I would really love to see Ruger make one in 22 Mag. That would be a lovely little carry piece. (By the way, I am a wheelgun man, and don't generally like semiautos. This one was an exception.)

great Gun
I've had mine since April and have put about 2000 rounds thru it. All were Federal Bulk HPs & I've yet to have a FTF or FTE. I can't say enough about this gun.

great 22 for the money
I own this. I got it as a anniversay present in June 2012. Searched various models & this one was IT. I have only put about 300 rounds thru it, but is very accurate and great for a woman who wants to shoot cheap but hit the Target! Pretty much all the time

Perfect 22
This is by far the best .22 pistol out there. It works fine with cheap ammo. Easy to take apart and clean. Accurate. Comfortable. Made well.

One thing I would like to see
This is a great little gun. I love it. The only thing I have an issue with is the mag release,..it seems like it needs to be a little less recessed, or larger. The one thing that I would like to see is that Ruger design some larger caliber pistols after this gun. I would love to see this exact gun in a 9mm, .40, or .45 cal. I hope Ruger is already considering this.

Works great
My wife and I each purchased the SR22 about a month ago. Mine has about 500 rounds through it and hers about 250. We've had one failure to feed in this time and with all types of ammo (Bulk to the good stuff). This pistol is fun to shoot so buy extra ammo. It's also easy to field strip and clean.
