Well, I waffled back and forth a dozen times but I just pulled the trigger (pun intended) and ordered a brand new Ruger Single Six in .22LR/.22WMR from www.budsgunshop.com. It was cheaper from them for a brand new gun including shipping than I could find a used one for here in town. I paid $324 + $4 for shipping insurance for it. Plus I'll end up paying $25 for the FFL when it gets here but I really think having the option of popping in a .22WMR cylinder and having enough power to pop a coyote if needed will be nice.

Thanks for all the input.
