Most reliable handgun? : r/Firearms - Reddit
Stupid poll. Almost all modern handguns are so boringly reliable it's not funny. My vote goes to Glock even though I am well aware it may not be the absolute most reliable hand gun here. The Glock has the longest reputation and the parts are far easier to find if something does go wrong. 263K subscribers in the Firearms community.

Best Caliber For Long Range Accuracy
Barrel length vs Stability? | Long Range Hunting Forum
· Fastest RPM round I shoot is a 22GT w. 1:7". 77TMKs @ 3200 are at 329k RPM. They are wicked accurate still, and absolutely crush coyotes with the terminal velocity on impact. If a 1:10" .308 won't shoot a 140gr well @ 3000fps, I highly doubt the twist rate is to blame. That is only going to be in the 216k RPM range. Pretty slow spin rate actually.

And for close up shooting (500m), 5.56 is way cheaper and will give you better practice making wind calls than a heavier caliber better suited for long range. Obviously 5.56 isn't the best caliber for long range, but from what you're describing it sounds like you just want something to casually shoot at steel with at mid ranges.

What is the smallest caliber viable for self defense? : r/CCW - Reddit
I occasionally carry a .22lr pocket pistol. Very low recoil makes it easier to shoot rapid accurate shots compared to a larger caliber in a pocket gun. Same idea would apply for an ankle gun. If I’m carrying on the waistband, it’s 9mm. .380acp would be acceptable to me, but 9mm is cheaper and more options.
