A model 41 Smith & Wesson is a much better gun overall for accuracy & reliability.

I was wondering what data you based that on. I have a number of .22 target pistols and the High Standard is as accurate as even the high end ones. The magazines sometimes need an initial adjustment but that is one and done. They are completely reliable with good ammo. As far as accuracy, here are two groups from two different High Standards at 50 yards. IMHO that is pretty good. The other good thing about the Military grip models is the current production models use the same replacement parts in case you need something repaired. The advice to use standard velocity ammo is good advice and that is all I use in all of my .22s.
The Rugers are fine pistols and you need to spend a lot more on some other pistol to get better performance. A trigger job and maybe good grips and you have a quality target gun. They too shoot better with standard velocity ammo. Hope this helps.
