I'm thinking about trading in my Taurus Tracker .357 for a gun I'd probably shoot more often. I'm thinking I could get a pretty even trade for something like a Mk III or Buckmark, but I haven't looked at my local shop to see what they have right now. I think they usually have at least one Mk III in stock. I'm a little conflicted, though, because I kind of like the .357/.38 spl (maybe not this particular one...I'd much rather have a GP 100 [and if I had that or a 686, I probably wouldn't even consider getting rid of it]), but I'd probably shoot a .22lr a whole lot more. Plus the cylinder is a little loose, I don't really like the rear sight, and it just seems a bit "cheap" to me, compared to other revolvers I've shot. It was my first handgun, and I bought it because it was relatively inexpensive.

Think that's a fair deal? I feel like having a fun new toy in my life, but I can't really spring for anything much more than an even trade. I still have about 100 rds of .357 or .38 so at least one range session with it before I decide. I looked at another thread about the .22 semi-autos. The Mk III or 22/45 seem like my thing, but, as always, I'd have to hold one to really know.

If the gun is the currency you will use I'd shop around and gets some clear info like what 22 feels right. 22s are loads cheaper to shoot than 38/357 even if you relaod.

Maybe you can find a buyer/ trader on arms list rather than go through a store who will skim a little off.

Thanks for the link, Simmer down. I think I saw that once, but I didn't remember that it exists.

I absolutely love the Ruger M3 Hunter. The one I shot was amazingly accurate.
