Is it worth buying a single six over a heritage 22?

And they don’t have that ugly safety on it

Yeah that definitely IS a downside to the Heritage.

The Heritage is a good shooting gun, but if you shoot a lot of rounds loading quickly, it tightens up an will not rotate the cylinder.. The single six is a better gun

yep those chickens deserve to be shot with only the best

Have you ruled out the Ruger Wrangler? They are very fun 22s!

Single six or Wrangler would be my vote.

I’ve owned two rough riders and both broke (one the advancing hand snapped, the other the trigger fell off of.).

Love a Ruger. I dont know where my magnum cylinder walked off to from my Single Six. Think Ruger can send out a replacement without me sending in my gun?

I have a heritage. Love the cheap little thing. Saw a nice SS single six up and wondering if it's actually any nicer for what I use my heritage for, murdering chickens.

Why you shooting your chickens?

I bought a mag cylinder off ebay for my Ruger years ago . It was a perfect drop in.
Seen others say it needed a little tickle to be just right.

Why you shooting your chickens?

For your purpose, probably not. Just keep it reliable, simple and accurate.
