Another vote for the Ruger's, I have the 22/45 Mark III, and it is a Great shooter.
My kit gun is a stainless S&W 651. It is a small, 6 shot revolver and comes with interchangeable cylinders for .22 LR and .22 Magnum cartridges. Stainless is very appealing for a gun intended for camping and travel duty.
I have owned) and still own automatics, but don't like to leave empty brass lying on the ground. The revolver avoids this minor problem, and is also much more reliable.
