The Taurus' S&W style sideplate makes working on the insides a whole bunch easier. The Charter cylinder is slightly easier/quicker to remove, but the crane is cruder. 22 handgun I owned really liked the CCIs, and my Ruger 10/22 likes Aguila ammo, but this Charter Arms likes Big Greens stuff. I even gave them a second chance, no joy. The Taurus is much heavier than the Pathfinder. 22 ammo usually shoots well for me in other gunsthis one didnt like them at all. These two guns are so close in these areas, that choosing between them would have to drill down to other aspects. My Taurus shoots with about equal accuracy.īoth guns have sights that are the same color as the rest of the gun, which makes for poor sighting - but was easily resolved with both by a little judicious application of BRIGHT SIGHTS paint.īoth guns have rubber bumpers that suck, IMHO - YMMV. 22 WMR, but with its 4.2-inch barrel and adjustable sights the Target version is designed to enhance accuracy potential without adding a lot of heft to the pistol. The two targets, posted above, were shot 25yds, one with the LR cylinder, the other with WRM. The brand’s Pathfinder line includes eight models in a variety of colors and barrel lengths in both. The replacement Pathfinder doesn't exhibit the pause, but the trigger pull is heavier and a tad grittier.
The pull on my original Pathfinder, now replaced, was also 'nice' - but had a hitch, or step/pause, near letoff.
