Bleh, expensive practice toy imo.  But it's only my opinion.  ;)

Makes  sense to me.  I could see using this as a CC "backup" or as a training tool for folks working up to a centerfire LCR.

Didn't look accurate enough for hunting, but that may be due in part to the sights and ageing eyes. 

I haven't seen a price on this one yet.

They are listed on the Ruger.com website at the same price as the .38 Special version of the LCR.

Have you priced 22 DA revolvers lately? While not a steal by any means, the price is realistic.

Very interesting. What would be the ammo of choice in this revolver.

If I were paying for a Ruger .22 DA it'd have to be the SP101

At least you have adjustable sights and some accuracy range.  ;)

I would like to have the LCR .22RF in a .22 WMR. 


Cheesehead, you ask a very good question.  I would like to know, also.  Guess it's research time.
