Ruger Mark I, II, or III.
How did I know you'd say that, lol.
Old school here, love my Ruger Single Six
I love my browning buckmark. The thing is stupid accurate and much easier to break down and clean then a Ruger.

You can build an equal or better Browning without having to spend all the extra money from my buddy Scott at VQ. A Heggis flip of the sear spring will save you $200 of those VQ dollars and give you a 2-2.5# trigger. Already has better safety, mag release, and slide release than the Rugers. Just add the factory overtravel adjustable trigger and you are all set. Tac Sol barrel is optional and does not require an FFL like the Ruger does. And I have owned Rugers before also, along with S&Ws. If I wanted to shoot bullseye I would leap over all these and buy a Pardini, but I shoot speed and action events.Ruger Mk III 22/45. It is dollar for dollar the best 22 auto available. With a Volquartsen Accuracy Group, the trigger is superb.(~$100 but you don't really need it). The Ruger Mk III eats any .22LR ammo available.
A major complaint is that it is difficult to take down for cleaning (and reassemble), but if you consult the manual every time initially, it becomes easier.
I have a Mod 41 Smith and a Hammerli TrailsideX Esse both of which are nice but ammunition sensitive. I also have a Browning Hunter which has thus far failed to measure up (I just ordered some extra magazines). The last Medalist I saw was about $1400, and that was some years ago.
The S&W DA revolvers are running $700+ and the Ruger DA revolvers are $600+, even the Tauruses (?Tauri) DAs are $500+. You can get a single action revolver for less than the 22/45.
