The 380 ammo is too expensive and the Beretta is a POS for target shooting. (absolutely horrible trigger). It will find the sweet spot on a silhouette but struggle to find the bullseye. I went on the .22 search. My final decision was the High Standard Supermatic Trophy. It's a little heavy but the balance and trigger are superb.

All of the above Rugers and Brownings are nice but that SOB Henry beat me to it...I have a penchant for the old High Standards...beautifully made pistols.
And becoming more collectable everyday.
Take a look at the Supermatic 101..it is a bit lighter than the above., with a swept back grip. What is shown above is a HS Supermatic Trophy Military 106 or 107...The HS line is a bit complex to understand but once ya got it down its a cinch.
Also the S&W K22 is a very nice gun along with the Colt Officers Models..in 22LR. The 22 was made from the 30's until 1970...
BTW I have had them all at one time or another...
