Yeah right ..Kevin I've bought all 3 the ruger the diamond back n the heritage n I myself am considering selling the ruger because the shot placement is to the left n it shoots low... not the same story on the diamond back or the rough rider they r literally the funest plinking ever so accurate yet so affordable great job heritage

The fit and finish of the Heritage is amazing for the price. I like that the operation is more closely like the original Colt than the modernized Ruger. I also like that the Heritage indexes at half cock for unloading…the Ruger cylinder is freespinning and you have to kind of manually line it up with the ejection rod. The Heritage also shoots tighter groups (at least in my experience) and I LOVE the option to run 22lr and 22 WMR (22 mangnum). It’s a fun plinking gun and doesn’t pretend to be anything else. Nor does it want to be. No, you won’t use it instead of your $900 Vaquero for CAS, but you ‘ll use it for practice…and just about anything else.

Excellent video review. You point out all of the key features and differences. Very well done. I really enjoyed watching this.

I've owned two heritage ruff ryders and one Ruger wrangler. I got both rough riders for $98 each on Christmas sales, and paid $200 for the Ruger at another Christmas sale. I ended up transferring both rough riders to my nephew's due to accuracy issues, one shot high left and the other shot high right so you always had to adjust where you would aim in order to roughly hit what you wanted to and that sort of drove me nuts. I still have the Ruger Wrangler, but it shoots low and right, below the line of sight 😆. I grew up learning to shoot a pistol with my father's 9 inch barreled Ruger single six three screw model. It was DEAD NUTS accurate, and here in Colorado they are going for $900 used at gun shows. As a graduation present from college, my father bought me the same pistol but with a 6 and 1/2 inch barrel, and same thing......VERY accurate. These are going for around $700 at gun shows around here. Growing up, I saw my father shoot a ground squirrel off of a boulder at around 50 yards with his 9-inch single six. Sadly my father has passed away since then, and I've happily given both models of the single six's to my two sons and they love them! I realize "you get what you pay for"..... But it still seems to me that if either of these factories would have takien the time to simply put a dowel into the barrel and rolled it on a table top find out the concentricity to the boar wich the bullet is coming out, they could have at least had a point of impact above the line of sight rather than below 😅the point of aim, not even letting you see the target you're shooting at because it's below the front site. I will probably go to a gun show and trade the Wrangler for something like a semi-automatic Browning buckmark with an adjustable rear sight. It's a shame because they are truly fun to look at and handle, clean and shoot......

Best, most thorough, to the point review I have seen for these two pistols. Thank you.

Great review, buy one of each and have a blast. Both have their pluses and minuses.

We have our heritage staged in the basement loaded with .22wmr...the missus noted it the only place in house where she didn't have quick access to a gun and she trusts the heritage (ours has been great)...but of course now I miss it at the range...I was looking at both wranglers and heritages the other day thinking about it...our gun buying budget is pretty much used up, and there other guns on the wishlist, so for now videos like this help put the comparison in mind...good job...

My brother in law has the Heritage. I shot it a few times and came away feeling like it was really just a toy. I picked up the Ruger a year ago. Got the burnt bronze ceracote. It came with the plastic grips and felt, well meh… Side by side shooting with my brother in law, the Ruger felt more like a real gun. The Ruger came with a discount coupon for ShopRuger. I went there and found that the Wrangler takes the same grips as the Vaquero! Picked up a beautiful set of laminated Rosewood Vaquero grips and put them on. WOW!!! It totally transformed the Wrangler. The Vaquero grips are WAAAY meatier than the stock plastic grips and the gun just fills up your hand now. I really enjoy the Wrangler now and can say that for the money, it’s a tremendous little shooter. Plinking with Aguila 40g ammo it is very consistent. And I have a number of boxes of CCI Velocitors that are my go to if I need a serious varmint pop around the farm. The Ruger just feels more substantial to me.

There is almost no difference in materials and quality,, but Heritage offers 35 different guns in .22 cal.... Ruger offers the same gun in three colors.

Every year that goes by I become a bigger fan of the 22 Winchester magnum I have carried one for over 20 years now. It is been such a great revolver cartridge for me.

The free wheeling cylinder in the Ruger was a deal breaker for me. Plus the Heritage looks a lot like the real deal, just like the Colt Single Action Army.

Technically, the Ruger's transfer bar prevents accidental discharge by NOT absorbing and transfering the momentum from the hammer to the firing pin. Unless the trigger is pulled all the way back, the transfer bar drops out of the way and prevents the hammer from transfering energy to the firing pin.

Excellent review. I went to my local Dunham's when the Ruger Wrangler was on sale. We (Little Boss also) liked the bronze version. I like the looks of all 3 color options. As I was buying the Wrangler I also bought a pearl birds' head gripped 4 1/2" Heritage with the WMR cylinder included because it looked so cool. Love that .22 MAG! It's loud. No felt recoil. It's expensive ammo for sure. The safety on the Heritage is Fugly! It even has an unsightly plastic y-looking MIM seam down the middle. As unsightly as it is, it's a surprisingly nifty feature even though it's easy to forget to take it off. Couldn't they knurl the thing or put some crosshatching on it? The cylinder release knobs on my S&W revolvers look exactly right. They can't Art-Deco design a button that looks like it fits? Love both of these guns. Both of mine are accurate too.

I'm a big fan of cheap fun, so both of these float my boat. That being said, if I could only have one, it'd be the Ruger Wrangler.

I chose the Heritage with Birds Head grips and 3 3/4" barrel. Very happy with my choice. Got it for $149.99 inc. mag cylinder. It also had a $30.00 mail in rebate making the total only $119.00.

Wish the RUGER came with longer barrel length choices and adjustable rear sight and front blade like the single six. Birds head grips options would stir some interest I bet also.

They both seem to shoot fine for what they are, but I can buy a Heritage sometimes for $99.00 and the Ruger costs $199.00. The Ruger costs twice as much as the Heritage and I don't see twice the weapon. I've had trouble with Ruger quality control and Ruger's customer service on my Ruger 9mm so I am not in love with Ruger. I am older and suffer with gout and arthritis in my hands and my son has suffered a stroke which left his left hand useless which makes loading a semi auto nearly impossible for both of us. I think the way the Heritage's cylinder locks in place when loading and unloading will make it easier for us with troubled hands. The Ruger's cylinder rolls freely and you have to line it up and hold it in place while loading and unloading which makes it more difficult and nearly impossible for my son. For these reasons I would choose the Heritage Rough Rider over the Ruger.

Picked up the Wrangler and I'm in love with it. I don't find the free-spinning cylinder to be an issue after a bit of practice with a few dummy rounds, as well as a good range session. I'll probably get a Rough Rider as well. They're so affordable there's almost no reason to NOT get one.

A few weeks ago I paid $17.00 for box of 50 .22mags, target rounds. The same store had .38spc target ammo for twice that.

These 22 single shot revolvers are great for introducing people to firearms. Put five empty 22 shells in and one live 22. Get the shooter to aim and pull the trigger without flinching. Then after a few practice pulls they get a live round. Always put the empty shells in or you will damage the firing pin and cylinder. Heritage finish wears. On the Heritage the many openers find the threads in the front of the barrel that secure the ejection rod cover screw are not well machined and require loctite to hold the screw tight. Heritage has a wide array of grips, barrel lengths, has the carbine, has a 9 shot option and has optional fiberoptic sights. Heritage trigger is fairly light and consistent. The aluminum will pit inside the frame around the forcing cone, but the gun will last thousands of rounds. With the fiberoptic sights the heritage will reliably hit a golf ball at 15 yards.

The advantage of having 22mag is only if that’s the only gun you own.

I prefer the heritage rough rider, loading is easier due to the cylinder being indexed, the ruger s cylinder spins free with no indexing so it's harder to line up and load each round. Thanks.

Im thinking about getting the Wrangler as a backup plinker. I also have a Ruger SR22 and Mark 3 Target. But idk why, I just prefer revolvers. In 2011 when i turned 21 i bought myself a Charter Arms pathfinder. With no prior firearms experience, and wanting some sort or self protection without much recoil i bought a 2" snubby chambered in .22 WMR, threw some checkered wood grips on it, and loaded her up with CCI maxi mags. I was the first in my circle of friends to start taking concealed carry seriously. That thing went with me everywhere. I got a little more confident and replaced it with a Rossi R351.

I'd say that one big difference between the paper targets and the metal ones was that the former were black, and harder to pick with the dark front sights, while the latter were white, and thus a much better contrast with the front sight.

Heritage Palmetto Arms revolvers the sights are just plopped on. Out of the box many shoot left of center. They just need to be trued with filing or slightly bending by error and trial. Not a great fit and finish but $100 small recreation plinker is a fair value.

Definitely save the wmr rounds for self defense specifically though, unless you really just like blowing stuff up for less money than .357. Just because LR is so much less expensive to practice with.

watching your video, I did not see where the ruger pulled ahead in groups they both did well. I have both guns myself and the only complaint I have is the trigger on my heritage is very light actually too light. I do not have a trigger pull gauge but it feels like a pound or less pull weight to me. Love both brands and I myself can not say one is better than the other on a comparative basis. Still you put out a good video, keep it going.

I would have expected you to shoot better with the Heritage because you've had that one a long time. Personally I went with the Wrangler for my cheap plinker because I already had a Ruger GP100. They come in about 12 different colors and single six grips fit them. I got pearl for my silver wrangler. Ruger has listened to their customers and have just released a birdshead model. I expect to see different barrel lengths.

Looks like I need both.

I believe testing shows that the Ruger gets more velocity from the same ammo due to tighter tolerances. I do like the option of adjustable sights on the Heritage. So it's a mixed bag. Maybe a used Ruger Single Six would be a better choice than either of these. Thanks for sharing.

I like my Heritages , I had a Ruger Wrangler for a month and sold it.

I've handled both and out of the box the sights are much better on the Ruger Wrangler. The sights on the Heritage are just plain awful. IMO the wrangler also feels more solid in the hand.

the Wrangler has a lot of things going for it. but I like the way the Heritage operates and sounds. Heritage has a Model called the Tactical Cowboy that I think is really cool. it's a special edition so I don't know how long they'll be selling it for.

as of today, 10/4/22, there are many options for wrangler grips, in case that's a selling point for anyone. My $35 checkered rosewood grips will be in any day now. I've also heard that new style blackhawk and vaquero grips will fit, but i cannot confirm or deny. hope this helps

For those considering a RR over A wrangler because of the 22 magnum.option you,re not gaining anything over a HV 22 with the short barrel..also compared to ruger quality RR,s are just junk..You,re gonna find one that works fine once in a while but a wrangler works all the Tim's and is much better quality and great CS.

Having had both... And having had to order parts for one, I will take the Ruger all day. And while neither are "traditional" SAAs revolvers, the safety on the Heritage is just... A turn off. As far as customizing parts on a Ruger, any part for the Single Six, will work on the Wrangler.

If you are testing for accuracy, S-L-O-W D-O-W-N. Take more time for each shot. I know some of it was edited. I could see it, but not all of it was, and you rushed through something that is important that you slow down.

What kinda accuracy results are you expecting shooting free handed that are going to provide any valid conclusions. At least shoot from a rest. Both handguns are way more accurate than you. The Heritage crushes the Ruger for value. Picked up a 6.5 in Heritage locally for $124, inside the box there was a coupon or instructions on how to get a magnum cylinder (or an additional 22lr ) cylinder for $29.99 with free shipping,.from Heritage. For $35 you can get a pretty engraved one also free shipping. All in with tax included I got the Heritage combo for $163. Ruger was $200 for the least expensive one I found on line. That’s $212 for me + ffl fee if I can’t find it locally ( it was available with free shipping from PSA). Finally, I hate the fact that when loading the Ruger the cylinder doesn’t hold its loading position, the cylinder just spins.

@@rifleman17hmrshooter Excellent review. I just subscribed and hit the bell for your channel. I'll have to go back and listen to your other video's.

Point of aim - point of impact on Heritage necessitates alot of Kentucky windage and Tennessee elevation, facts...

chigs grips makes the most beautiful ones i own or have seen custom but very reasonable price (wood) for either revolver.

I prefer the Heritage

What holster is that?

I've got three Heritages, but other better-built single-actions. I bought them, like I buy cheap guitars - for display, and for teaching the youngins about gun safety. Same with my awesome, Henry Golden Boy. Fun, fun, fun. Heritages are generally known to be more accurate than the Rugers. That is, unless things have changed in the past few years. The thing with the Heritages, you have to compensate for the sights, which are almost always off. Most reports are that they shoot 'high left'. Go figure. Lots of very happy Heritage owners out there, but once you get past around 1000 rounds, they can go south on you. Heck, by then, you've gotten your monies worth and you can hang em on the wall, on a stand, or start replacing parts. Springs are the only thing I'm willing to replace on one. Would I recommend them? Heck yes! At least, in .22. I believe they stopped making the big bores. I don't know too much about them.

I own both. The Ruger is a great revolver. However, the non clicking cylinder is slow to load and unload due to having it in the exact spot to load n unload. And my Rough Rider is more accurate, every round and any brand, than the Ruger. But it’s still a great revolver and it looks great! I got the burnt bronze finish

All my own songs. Periodically I'll record a new one to add to the videos!

Standard Single-Six parts, and grips will fit the Wrangler...

If you want a modernized color and no 22 magnum go with for the Ruger but if you want the old school look and with 22 magnum go with the heritage

The Heritage also has a nine shot version. In LR and WMR. The Ruger is only a six shot. At lease for now.

The heritage is a 5 shot gun. Cant safely load one in all 6 cuz RR doesnt have the block on safety of the fine little ruger.

The Ruger looks like a Mattel Fanner 50@@twolak1972

I ADDED UP THE SCORE AND THE HERRY ACTUALLY WON THE ACURACY BY 2 POINTS OVERALL.

I got the Chiappa 1873 because it had two 10 round cylinders and I could not afford the Uberty 13 shot one! Also, I take it he can't count to six?

I prefer the Ruger. If they would make a limited model steel frame to fire magnums, I would buy one. I LOVE the safety of the transfer bar.

They do offer a model that fires magnum with interchangeable cylinders. Look into the single six, better sights, milled steel frame, same mechanicals but lot more money. Shooting 22wmr is lots of fun but at the same time cost more money too. Cheers bud!

Thanks for the heart. It's called the Single Six. Very nice and solid revolver. In today's market it cost three to four times the price of a Wrangler. If you collect, it's a good buy. If you just want to shoot, stick with the Wrangler. Thanks for the update.

At 6:30 you can't tell me it sounds like the cattleman from red dead redemption

I ENJOYED YOUR VIDEO....... ........ *BUT* ....... I WISH YOU GUYS (THOSE WHO SHOOT ANY KIND OF PISTOL FOR ACCURACY) WOULD USE SOME KIND OF PISTOL REST (NOT A "RANSOM", BUT SOMETHING SIMPLE) OFF A TABLE, SO YOU COULD SIT DOWN, REST THE PISTOL AND FIRE - THUS IT WOULD BE A FAR BETTER REPRESENTATION OF WHAT THE PISTOL(S) WOULD REALLY DO. ANY WAY, GOOD VIDEO AND NICE LIL OLE .22LR PISTOLS (I ENJOY .22s A WHOLE LOT MYSELF) - - - KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK - BRAVO!!!!!!!
