Have a pair of Wranglers.  I like my Single Six (older three-screw model)
better, but the Wranger is not bad at all.  Certainly better than the Heritage
Rough Riders I've managed to accumulate - which are STILL fun little guns to
shoot.  It's not really a fair comparison, the Single Six is just a top of the
line .22 revolver, there's nothing in my mind to compare it to.  The Heritage
and the Wranger are within the same realm.  Heritage does fun things like
custom grips, oddball barrel lengths and the like, and the Wrangler is more
like a "we'll keep to basics and do the basics well, thank you" kind of item. 
Either way, at the price range they're in, I have a feeling I'll collect a few
more of these .22 plinksters just for fun....
