A .22lr handgun has been on my mind since shooting the rifle stage of the Rimfire Challenge but missing out on the pistol portion. I've been looking at both the Browning Buckmark and Ruver MKIV. Whichever I get, I'd like a model with a rail and a threaded barrel. Anyone have any input?

As you go into this, I'd recommend evaluating how much you want any .22 target pistol to weigh and how it feels your grip.
Hardly an expert, I can shoot anything well enough to hit targets. But if you're like me and accustomed to the 1911 and larger caliber/high capacity/magnum pistols, a Ruger 22/45 Lite might feel somewhat insubstantial when you really settle in at the range. Took me a couple outings to realize my first one was too light and too narrow. Felt a bit like a toy compared to what I'm used to.
Anyhow, I fabbed some simple steel plates to add weight and width to both of my Rugers and they behave a LOT nicer - for me. YMMV.
