grouping with .22

[some bloke 60]

That's seriously respectable shooting Dan. I doubt I could match that but we could go compare.com.

 

I'm out of .22 rounds - so how about your bullets on my permission lol?

Well, had my licence and rifle a day now. Spent an hour or so zeroing in today, and finally started getting groups of approx 3/4 inch at 95yds. Im using eley subs, is this about right? im used to putting one on top of another with air rifles, and know this is unlikely with a .22

 

I know that at 95yds this is more than enough for a clean kill, its just i wondered is this the general grouping at this range?

 

cheers

At 95 yards you are at the upper and outer limits of outdoor precision with a .22rf.

If you are not using a bipod and a VERY good scope, then 3/4" groups are not just OK they ara F***'in brilliant.

Look when you are Rabbiting you have about 20 seconds start to finish, it's dark, raining, the range is whatever it is 30, 50,67??yards

Take the shot or forget it, no mildots, no breath control, no wind flags, Oh Dear its run in.

Don't worry, be happy!

I'll take that offer in a few weeks Dan. I went out earlier this week and after copping a few bunnies I started shooting high. I eventually realised my scope mounts were loose so a quick re-zeroing session is in order before we go after some bunnies as I'm getting behind on orders for them.
