cheapish .40 s&w

I'm looking for a reasonably priced .40s&w handgun. I'll be using it mostly for target shooting/plinking so it does'nt have to be great. The CZ 100, Steyr M/S series, and Ruger 94 have all caught my eye. What do you all think of these 3 guns, or do you have any other suggestion for what I should get.

Suggest that you try each and go with the one you feel is best. If you don't know folks that alread own the models your interested in try ranges that rent pistols although you may have to look some to find the CZ and Steyr ... maybe a range near you sells used as well as new and would have a trade-in that they would be willing to let you test fire for a nominal fee ... anyway, if at all possible the "try before you buy" approach is a lot more economical than buying and trading in as you typically take a beating each time you do that.
I have fired all three and each rests/fits in the hand differently. Additionally the Steyr M series typically come with the trapazoid (sp?) sights ... they are quick acquiring sights, but a little getting used to is required.
If you only have time to do two things so-so, or one thing well ... do the one thing!
