I’m calling you out from the precision rimfire forum. “Don't let my pessimism spoil your fun. My $340 Ruger 8334 will shoot .8 MOA at 100 all day. If I was paying 3X the money, I'd want better results. That's just me. Looks like you're shooting small groups and having fun. That's what matters“ |

Lol just shoot have fun and make honest claims. I have a home range and am lucky in that I get to shoot thousands of rounds a year. Between that and seeing results posted by serious rimfire shooters it’s easy to see BS Every .22 I’ve owned would put down some killer groups from time to time. Consistently is a whole other conversation. |

I don’t ever shoot 100 yards, but here’s 13 shots into 5” at 600 yards. There were two sighters fired, corrected off the first(4:30 on the 10-line) and second was inside the group. This was shot with my iron-sighted .308 from prone with a sling; no bipod, sand bags, rest, etc. Is that worth anything?

I did worse than in previous years, using the same setups. Rushed shooting is my excuse. . |

Thanks to all the sponsors of the GA HTF MOA challenge #6.
I was able to put up a .474 moa average. Came in second behind SuperJLarge (for 2nd year in a row). Don't have any pics of the setup, range, etc. I was worried about shooting instead of picture taking. Maybe next year SuperJLarge will show mercy and let someone else win. |

Try some center X. After testing just about all of the Eley line (including Tenex), I just don’t think that’s the ammo for the B14r’s. |

Does the moa all day challenge have to be done on the arf.com target or would a sight in style 5 bullseye target qualify?
