I have a S&W 22 Victory and a Ruger Mark IV competition. I am looking at a Buckmark just to round out the collection of .22 pistols. What do you think? Should I or shouldn’t I?

Go for it. Very accurate but tough to clean.

I have one and it’s not a bad firearm. I have the smaller version of it that’s all black with a gold trigger. I think I’d rather have a Ruger or SW Victory. I bought it cheap when gander outdoors was closing. I think I paid sun $200 out the door

Completely agree. I have one. It's a tack driver but as @thegatman said it's I PITA to clean. However, Browning recommends you don't take it down for cleaning but just clean breach/bore. I have about 500 rounds through mine and haven't taken it down. But knowing how dirty 22LR is it's just a matter of when I take it down for actual "true" cleaning.
That said - it's a LOT of fun to shoot.

I have one. He's right.
Have mine 10+ years love it, tough I shoot steel with my FS M&P 22. The Buckmark is a better Bullseye pistol.

I like mine, but here are a gazillion different configurations. Choose wisely.

This is the one that I bought for indoor bullseye league at my club. I love it, It’s an excellent bullseye gun.

I have the same model with 7.25 barrel, yours looks to be the same.

It is.
The adjustable iron target sights are excellent but my old eyes require something much easier to acquire when bullseye shooting these days so I bought the Buckmark RMR . It works beautifully. I’ve got no complaints.

I've also found the top plate which has a hex nut likes to come undone even using locktite. You gotta check it every so often.
Otherwise it's a great gun.

I got well north of 50,000 rounds through mine. Still runs like a champ.
Very reliable gun for a .22.

Same one I have. It eats anything I toss through it.

If you flip the sear spring, it cuts the trigger pull weight in half.
Mine really likes Federal Automatch.

I like the feel of the buckmark more than the mark IV.
My Buckmark Contour 7.25'' barrel with a 3MOA Vortex Venom, Also likes Auto Match. Last I shot Bullseye I had a 250 average, that was about 8/9 years ago.
Tried it on Steel and just prefer my S&W M&P 22 with the 6MOA Vortex Venom maybe because it is lighter.

I've got the same gun. I swapped the trigger for one with an overtravel screw and put on a set of target grips. After flipping and tweaking the sear spring, polishing the insides and removing the magazine safety, I've got the trigger as close to 2 lbs as I can be and still moving the weight.
