I bought my Anschutz Model 54 in 1964 and shot it in smallbore competition for 25 years. loved that rifle. My vision has deteriorated over the years and even my 25X Lyman Super Targetspot can't save me. I NEVER had a problem with the rifle and all I fed it was Eley match grade ammo.
Your times where really nice to live. No cell phones not disturbances.
@@AbdullahQasimCalligraphy Truly agree. Nowadays, there are ballistic apps, thermal scopes, IR scopes, etc. which took away the joy of calculating while in the field.
My Dad used to tinker with Ruger 10/22s and get hits on steel over 200yrds. There is a lot you can do with even just a stock 10/22 to improve accuracy. But to wring out the most accuracy he would weight the whole .22LR round to check for consistent weights, group up the different weights and see which one the gun like the best. Its odd but it worked.
This really doesn't work...been there done that lol....the juice isn't worth the squeeze
@@prone_wolf8871 Weighing the rounds was only one thing my Dad did to the 10/22, other steps were securing the action into the stock to stop action wobble, dressing the barrel face to match the action face, lapping the barrel, cleaning up the trigger and checking for rim thickness on the rounds. And yes it did work and with nothing better to do through the winter Dad enjoyed the process. The results we saw validated the work.
@8RedBear5 well I weighed tons of it myself.....and sorted by rim thickness....and though yes....improvements in group size can be seen.....
The improvement isn't enough yo justify the time it took.....trust me been down that road more then once lol....
The gains are not worth it(imo)
@@prone_wolf8871 This is how we can tell you aren’t a bench rest shooter. They will milk every last 100th of a moa out of something. Any improvement is worth the work to bench rest guys.
@@god910 😆
The super long range worked very well in my Tikka, but I recently aquired some norma xtreme 22lr rounds. Now those are actually very intresting and innovative. 355ms mv, 43 grain rebate boat tail bullet. Nailed 300 meter targets very well.
1,164.69 fps
@@totallyjonesin Thanks for translating to freedom units.
Where did you find it? I cant find anywhere to purchase it.
@@mikeflanders2173There is some speculation that it was an April fools bullet they released a week early.
I really enjoy 22 ELR. I've gone out to 400m. Sometimes I don't hit anything. The slightest wind makes a huge difference. Great learning curve. I use S&B Club 40gr (1080fps) in my Savage Mark II with Element 4-16X44 on FX no-limit mounts. I can zero out to 450m or so and still have the full reticle to use.
Great research and video.
Thanks! 5.5 standard deviation for the Lapua Super Long Range is amazing.
I'm shooting a Kidd Supergrade with 20 inch barrel. I recently compared Eley Precision Benchrest versus Eley Force. Wind was light and variable 3 to 8 MPH at about 20 degrees off a straight headwind. At 50 yards the Precision Benchrest consistently grouped better than the Force as would be expected, but both occasionally threw a flyer that would ruin a 5 shot group. At 300 yards the Force came into its own and proved equal or better consistency on a six inch steel gong. I believe this is because at longer ranges the wind call becomes the biggest factor in hitting the target with .22LR. I think the heavier bullet (42g) and the higher velocity of the Force gave it an advantage over the lighter (40g) and slower Precision Benchrest.
I had a 52C that hated Eley Tenex but just loved standard Remington .22 LR. Each .22 rifle has it's own taste in ammo.
After moving to Renton, Washington back in '91, I found that I had a good place to shoot from the bench at 200 yards. I have a Great Depression era Savage1933 NRA Model (actually a target version of the old Model 19). In former times, it was the cheaper competition for the Winchester Model 52. It has a 1911-patent Lyman target peep sight on a vernier scale. Set at zero, it will print CCI Mini Mags right on at 50 yards. To hit very slightly high at 100 yards, i adjust it up to five. For 200 yards, I have to take it up to 27. I can get four-inch groups at that range shot carefully from the bench with a sandbag rest. More recently, I watched through the telescope as other people were shooting .22 LR ammunition at the 200 yard target. I could actually see the bullets moving into the target. They were falling like a home-run hit over centre field. I know that where they would print at 210 yards and 190 yards would be radically different than where they were hitting at 200. I would surmise that they would miss entirely overhead at 190 and fall down below the bottom at 210. Of course, one would need a precision range finder to know the difference.
When I first started to watch this video, I imagined that these two new Lapua products were super high-velocity wonder cartridges that somehow were able to preserve gilt-edged accuracy out where the daisys grow beyond the place where the bullet speed drops back below the mach one. I was disapppointed to see up-close velocities only in the low 1100's. Groups at reasonable range were impressive out of that precision rifle.
I figured out long ago I could reliably drop rimfire silouette ram targets at 100 meters with the rear sight set to seven and with Remington Target ammunition. Anything beyond that range was simply beyond practical accuracy for the .22 long rifle cartridge. Then it is time to get closer or to use a different rifle/cartridge combination.
Would love to see a comparison or what your rimfire does with the cutting edge system loading your own ammo
I am so jealous! Amazing, wonderful work if you can get it! It’s been two days since this posted and Creedmore Sports are already out of stock of both Lapua .22 ammo. 🙈
Out of my V22 both of these shoot very well. The super long range and the lot I have shoots at 1115 with an insane sd of 3 across my magnetospeed. 10 shot group size at 100 was under a dime. The long range had a measly 5sd 😂 shot at an avg of 1107 and yielded a very comparable group. Now my Vudoo loves Lapua anything SK ammo included (has to be the Lapua snot lube), but that little boost in velocity at the 600yd and beyond targets we shoot our 22lr elr at really helps when you find yourself running out of adjustment, and the consistency in shot after shot out of my rifle is mind bending. Make sure you have velocities in both cold and warm weather because in my experience anyways I get almost 100fps slower in 20 degrees F than 75.
Shooting targets offhand at 40, 60, 77, and 100 meters with my Vudoo single shot and SK Rifle Match and Lapua X-ACT. Rifle silhouette is where it’s at! Just down the road from you in Ephrata, WA!
over 50 years ago, I used to shoot .22 match competition. I was as good as I could get with a rifle that was really at the end of its accurate life (BSA International Mk2). I tried several different makes of ammunition, but I had my best results using Lapua.
Not possible to shoot out a 22lr barrel, unless using corrosive ammo & not cleaning it after shooting. Old 22s aren't shot out but rather deteriorated from old corrosive ammo & lack of cleaning. Even centerfire rifles don't shoot out barrels. They erode the throat & usually a barrel setback & rechamber will bring it's accuracy back. Pretty hard to wear out chrome moly or SS with lead or copper. I have a sub 6lb walnut stock Kimber Sporter in 22LR that shoots anything I put in it very well. Came from the factory with a target with 5 shots in 4/10".
Great review on the new lapua ammo. I’m anxious to try som my self.
Currently shooting RWS R50 threw my Vudoo V22 and we do a monthly ELR match out to 625y
thank you I really enjoyed this video. I just love the Anschutz rifle. I have a 1727F 2 stage trigger and not long bought a 1418 single stage and a 1710 and a single stage as well.
I have been trying to purchase a 1716 Anschutz in New Zealand but the Anschutz shop has been waiting for 2/3 years for them.
I'm sure they wouldn't have your rifle the 1 in this video. Thanks again!
I get comparable results with my BSA International Mark III, with a Lyman TargetSpot Scope and Harris Bipod. It’s an oldie and keeps up with the latest and greatest. I use Eley, SK and Lapua ammo! I can almost duplicate your groups at 75 and 100 meters. The alternate sights are Redfield Olympic/Palma and a Freeland front tube sight. I will try using the new long range ammo and let you know the results.
Haven’t got to try these two Lapua rounds yet. Looking forward to see how the CZ457 likes them. It loves SK Match and Wolf Match Extra
What a beautiful range!!!
I have a handful of heavy barrel .22 LR rifles. I most commonly shoot my CZ457 in a KRG Bravo or Ruger RPRR, both with Athlon Midas Tac 6-24x50 out to 300 yards very regularly. I shoot at about 6000’ elevation, on average 13.1 Mils to 300 yards. It’s a lot of fun.
Wow! That's good stuff using basically standard velocity ammo!
I am using a Anschutz 1416 which is the Match 64 Action. Scope base is Area 419. Scope is Athlon Helos BTR Gen2 . I had the rifle lot tested at the Lapua test range in OH and it shoots Lapua Center X well. I was kinda happy it liked Center X better than the Midas. This new ammo is very interesting. May have to try some. Ammo is becoming available now so I may start experimenting again. We are building our own steel plate range now. I can shoot safely at 300 yds max. Fun stuff.
My main rimfire setup right now is a cz 457 with aguilla super match, got it as the lockdown bs started, on good days it'll hit trap clays or soda cans at 300 with respectable consistency
if my cz doesn't single hole 5 @ 100yds I figure I should have put the beer down 2 or three cans ago. Most accurate rifle I've ever seen except for my nephs cz in .22 mag.
TLC Grip looks great on That XLR chassis/Anschutz 1710!
I went the PCP route and spent a small fortune a number of years ago !
If I had to do it all over again I would have gone the 22LR route .
So many improvements have taken place the 22lR world in both rifles and ammo with consistency !
Savage Mark II FV-SR with some crap scope I had laying around and a DeadAir Mask HD. Shooting 40gr CCI Quiets. It’s crazy consistent, hits a 1” spinner at 65 yards every time unless you derp it. Doesn’t even scare the birds in the yards.
I have an old JW15 with a Shilen barrel chambered with the Bentz match reamer. If my memory is any good it has a slightly faster twist. You just got me excited to buy some of the Lapua ammo and see what it'll do at 'long range'.
I am shooting a CZ457 with a zeiss 4x20 and SK ammo. Really happy
I have over 20 firearms, but the 4 .22LR get the most "love". Just love to shoot those rifles. Love it!!
Running a Vudoo V360 (22" MTU) for PRS rimfire out to 400yd. Most targets are ~300yd and in at matches though. SK Rifle Match (SD 7-9 , SD 25-27) with two separate lots I shoot.
Great Video! Vudoo Gun Works is a pretty sweet rifle as you may already know the Rem700 foot print help a lot with the modifications addiction lol.
I'm very sure that the bullet is out of the barrel before you consciously realized the rifle fired. Great shooting, cool ammo. Amazing groups at distance with wind and all.
love 22lr so much. top notch fun.
Well this looks great -I'm going to have to try some in my 12 round 5.5" barrel Uberti cowboy single action pistol and see how it does shooting clay pigeons sitting on the 200m berm.
I usually prefer Federal target match at that distance (in the 325 box) but I'll have to give these lapua supers a try.
Thank you for another excellent video presentation!
I have several of the eley’s all the cci’s and everything in between. I have had the best groups with federal auto match but I do get flyers pretty regular. Ruger heavy barrel 10/22 with a little trigger work.
I've been shooting long distance long before you were born. I shoot 45-70 at 1,000 yards
and 22LR at 400. I'm shooting antique rifles that are over 120 years old. They are schuetzen rifles that have been relined to shoot 22LR. They have 30 inch barrels. What do you think is good shooting at 50 yards is what I would call average shooting at 400.
I use 22LR hyper velocity Winchester ammo.
1435fps gets the job done with less bullet drop. I use Lyman Super Targetspot scopes, a 20X and a 24X. At 100 yds it's a no-brainer to put 5 shots inside a ¼ inch circle. I shoot a 1903 Stevens 44 /Jerry Gebby custom, an 1892 Swiss Martini with double set triggers by Widmer and a 1912 Stevens 414 with a 29 inch barrel. All of my 22LR rifles are single shot. I should add that I'm a retired machinist
and have mechanically restored all the original tolerances.
The most important things to remember when shooting long distance is repeatability. This means, you follow the same procedures for every shot. Your barrel is clean and in good condition. In my opinion, it is not necessary to mic every bullet or worried if the bullet is concentric. I have found it makes no difference.
It's all about the equipment, the ammo and the twist rate if you want to shoot accurately whether it's 50/400/600 yards.
Interesting video. I'm shooting a Bergara B-14R Trainer and a CZ 457 Varmint MTR.
Currently experimenting with SK Standard and Eley Match. I will have to try some of the Lapua.
I have actually had some good results with the inexpensive Norma TAC22 as well.
Anshcutz makes a hell of a good gun. I had one that belonged to an Olympic shooting trainer for a while. 10 rounds in the same hole at 100 yards.
That's pretty impressive
My personal best with my Savage Mk.2 22LR, Athlon Argos 6-24×50mm was a hit on a 12" target at 342 yards with CCI Standard Velocity 40grain RN
Lapua is some good schitt. I wouldn't describe it as factory ammo. I obtained some Lapua Polar Biathlon and ran it through a Ruger MK IV tactical with a Volquartsen trigger and it shot bugholes @25yrds. I haven't tried it in a rifle yet.
Super impressive.
Have a 10/22 in a Hogue Over molded stock with a Timney trigger and aKidd barrel. Also have the tandemkross left side charging adapter.
One the best shots I’ve ever pulled off was on a 22LR.
Right to left moving pheasant at 158m from a kneeling position. At first it looked like the pheasant just fell over forward .. only it never got up
I’ve been shooting 22LR bench competition for about 8mos now out to 250Yds at small steel plates. My gun is a 20” CZ457 MTR in an MDT XRS chassis with a EC Tuner. I burned through a ton of ammo and lot numbers trying to find the best combo for accuracy. I started at the ELEY test facility in Winters Texas and shot 15 different lots of Eley Match and Tenex. My gun didn’t like any of it. So I tried all the SK and Lapua match ammo up to SK long range Center X and Midas +. SKLR was best and most of the top match competitors also shoot this ammo in their CZ MTRs. Two weeks ago I decided to try Lapua long range in practice and beat my highest previous score by almost 50 points. My best match finish was 15th place with a score of 210. With Lapua long range I finished in 2nd place with a 257. I’m thinking about trying the super LR now. It’s a quite a bit more expensive but cheaper than a custom desert precision rifle with a Lilja barrel.
It makes sense you were off from your calculator at 400. The BC starts to drop a lot at around the 325 mark. You will find from ~25-300 you can use one BC, then end up having another BC to go from ~325-450. If you go even farther you will end up with another lower BC etc.
Ruger 10/22 for me. Federal Automatch is one of my favorite ammos; inexpensive, accurate, and 14+ inches into ballistic gel, and 12-14” inches from my Ruger pistol!
i have forever wanted to see the performance and velocity of 22lr loaded with flash powder. the stuff that’s in firecrackers and fireworks. it’s a super fast burning powder and it would be neat to see what would happen in that platform. and if you have the time maybe step it up to pistol cartridges. it may be dangerous in those ranges though.
You cant go wrong with Lapua ammo. Have used it for many years and swear by it. Luckily here in New Zealand is a place that manufacture ammo for Lapua so I can find these local...
I mainly use it for pest control with my little 22 Mauser, an original from Oberndorf, Germany.
Sako Finnfire P94S Range shooting CCI Standard (sorted by rim thickness) or Fiocchi Biathalon. Haven't pushed it beyond 250 or so, but can knock centers out of clay pigeons laid on the berms all day long.
I get similar groups at 50m and 200m with a T1X and SK biathlon. It gets really tricky beyond 300m though. I'm testing Eley Force which shows good consistency but switching winds wouldn't allow me to get meaningful results at 400m. Can't wait to lay my hands and SK long range 😢
I am using CZ 457 MTR using Eley Tenex, in recent ELR 22LR match at 200 yards I had extreme spread in 5-6 Mph wind
"Factory" 10/22 with a 16" Edgar Arthur Brown fast twist barrel. I bedded the action in a sporter stock. Topped with an Arken ep5. It really likes Norma match with a best of 4" 15 shot group @300 yards. I'm on a-zone steel at 300 using just about anything off the shelf. Can't complain. 24 moa holds make me feel like a man. 💪
I like the way this sounds, curious to see your set up. I did a rebuild on my bench 1022 with a .920 ER Shaw barrel. There aren't any ranges around here over 100 yards for me to stretch her legs to really test it to see what it can do.
@@natejackson4791 it's nothing special. Charger action with a .920 sitting on JB weld quick steel in a resculpted sporter stock. Just a home brew "bubba" rig. ELR of the poor's kind of thing. $1000, glass included.
I'm in Arkansas and sadly my range is now covered in foliage. So I'm back to 100 yards till fall. Shooting across a valley to the next ridge. Lots of trees in between.
Bedding helped a lot and I found it very easy to accomplish. Took my rig from 1.5 moa to .75 @100yds.
I shoot a mildly customized CZ 457 LRP on my channel and do a bunch of ammo testing with the cz and other 22 lr rifles. I as well have been thinking about attending a 22 match. I have never done it before and think it would be a great opportunity to enjoy a new challenge. Love your channel and keep the 22lr content coming! Cheers
outstanding.
I tried eley team ammo for the first time and got .8” at 100. I couldn’t believe it. I’ve gone out to 3-400 yards a few times but it’s super super tough. I’ll use Winchester subs or Cci subs for that. I practice on 4” Steel at 2-250 yards cuz I really wanna get better. I still suck 🤣😭😅
That is the fasination of rimfire, two identical CZ rifles. Mine shoots best with SK ammo, my friends shoots best with Eley ammo.
These days the top 22lr shooters are found in the IR 50/50 class. My father is a hall of famer in the sport and a world record holder. 22lr is by far the funnest shooting. It teaches you so much about yourself and brings a person back to the true "101's" of shooting, if you know what I mean. Really enjoyed this video and will definitely be subscribing to ultimate reloader. Thank you for bringing some attention to the rimfire class of shooting! My family is all about it!
Amazing!
Ain't nothin' wrong with a good old 22!
Hell anything that goes bang!
I kept thinking that you were saying “the dam targets.”
Mine likes SK plus. Need to test this and SK high velocity martch. Thoughts?
I used to have a J.C. Higgins bolt action single shot .22 with iron sights, and I could hit a squirrel in the head out to 100 yards. Unfortunately someone stole it out of my truck along with my brand new turkey shotgun. I haven't found another .22 in my price range that can shoot as good as that one. Right now I have a Springfield model 15 trap gun and it shoots ok out to 60 yds, but then it starts throwing lead wide.
22 man needed this.
In my quest for long range I've taken it to a level even more silly! Trying to get to 200 yards with a Daisy 880. I'm getting hits at 120 on a 10" plate. The problem is I have run out of scope! Both adjustment and hold over. Next we'll try to add an adjustable rail!
The 880 doesn't have the oomph to get a good pattern out to 200 yds. I've tried for years. I've gotten lucky a few times by just pointing it up higher than the target and guesstimating windage.
@Brian Johnson last time I shot at 100, I did ok, 5" if I remember correctly, so pretty confident. I'll increase the target to 24" if I have to. I just want to say I did it or can do it!
Best so far is 444 meters same gun XLR but 18 inch threaded with SK long-range match
Really must get some of that laupa especially as my rifle seems to prefer the faster match ammo
Even cleared the kly rack at 202 meters in 26/27 shots them Annie's shore shoot
Rim x or vudoo v 22 sk rifle match but I have been thinking of try this new lapua now I’m even more interested we shoot monthly matches at 100-500 meters with 22lr
My CZ457 loves the super long range not so much the long range.
My vudoo 360 loves the long range and super long range. Great ammo
How hard will this be to find in stores?
On a day without any wind I can easily touch bullet holes at 100 (the max my particular range will go) with just your plain-jane CCI Standard, a Ruger American Rimfire carbine and a $50 scope off of Amazon. (This has quite ticked off one of my shooting buddies as my set-up gives his $1200 set-up a run for its money whenever we shoot competitively!) Unfortunately CCI isn't always as consistent as I would like. I'll have to check out these Lapua bullets. Better than having a nice set-up is having ammo that it likes and practicing good shooting techniques. As an aside, I've gotten into break-barrel air rifles a few years back. Now THOSE are a challenge to shoot accurately at distance! Pellets and a shooting technique that your gun likes becomes absolutely crucial. It's not uncommon for people to become frustrated with a break barrel and toss them in the trash. If you think you're a good marksman, a break barrel can quickly humble anyone! lol
Now if only we could get this ammo in stores
Very nice review, thank you for sharing. .22 LR is a very underestimated and fun cartridge. I have an old Remington 552 Speedmaster semi auto .22 LR that I bought used in 1980 put on a Burris 4x scope. I would rest it across the roof of our car and shoot at an old highway sign at 430 yards. Put the top of the rectangular sign so the corners just touched the bottom edges of the scope and split it in the middle with the vertical cross hair. Fire three shots pause and listen to the three rings from the sign. Bang, Bang Bang...Ting, Ting Ting. It was a repeatable science anytime I wanted to do it on a calm day it worked. It fails to feed reliably anymore but I still shoot it single shot.
Love shooting NRL22 with my Ruger Rimfire Precision. Nothing fancy about the rifle other than a Gemtech suppressor and a Vortex Viper PST Gen II scope. Still trying to find a substitute ammo for the discontinued Federal Gold Medal Ultra Match. I want to try some of the Lapua ammo, but just can't afford it. I have had decent luck with Federal Gold Medal Target (911b) but can't find that any more. Love the channel!!
For bulk ammo I've had some good results with the Federal AutoMatch.
You need to collab with Garand Thumb and/or 22 plinkster to help make the mythical 700 yards soda can shot a reality.
With that setup, I think it may actually be possible.
Needs more elevation 😆
This is what 22man needed
Vudoo 360 in a J Allen mdt stock using centre x. I'd like to try a 25inch barrel with a 1/13 twist
What bipod is that? Thanks!
In few years barrel twist will change for lr and elr 22, people will start reloading and shooting to 400-500 as avg low distance. Or just will switch to air rifles like new fx
We're shooting this 500 yards consistently on low to no wind days. This is some outstanding 22 ammo.
High-end custom 22LR are all the rage now. I'll agree that 22LR bolt rifles are fun but if I am plinking with a 22 bore, I'd rather just get the 22-250 out with some custom hand loads and a 10/22. I have a blast with that combination. There's something for everyone...
CZ 457 LRP, FEDERAL RTP - best result on 5 shots group - 0,33 MOA
Do you compensate for the upwards trajectory in your calculations?
WOW...no if we could just talk Lapua into doing a 22 MAG round!!
Very impressive. We shoot 200 fly . In Australia that Lap ammo will probably cost a Bomb . Keep up the great work
Dare say It will be twelve months or more until we see it here.
I've noticed when shooting 22 at 300 yards and beyond, changes in wind mean large changes in elevation. I think I've seen the center of my groups change a full mil depending on wind. I've got notes on my phone of windage and corresponding elevation changes for wind. Off the top of my head (my phone is dead), I believe 300 yards means a regular 4+ MIL of windage adjustment and 1 mil of average elevation. It's enough to be off of a 12" plate even if I get the wind read and windage correct and forget to make the corresponding elevation hold. This is without much wind. I think a 175 SMK out of 308 Win would be about 1/20th that much deviation.
As for ammo and rifle, I went cheap. I'm running a Bergara B14R and until very recently, exclusively CCI SV. I'm aware CCI SV is not good for this due to velocity deviation. I'm also using a 30mm scope on a 30 MOA mount, so I'm having to use reticle holds until something like 150 yards. The scope is a Vortex Viper PST FFP 6-24 first generation. I'm using it because it cost me $950 and has glass so bad it cannot be used to identify a freshly painted steel plate much past 350 yards. Everybody that reviewed those things positively should be ashamed. The thing's been RMAed twice for other issues. If it cost me $200, I'd feel ripped off. So I feel very ripped off.
Wonder what tight groups I can wring out of my Eastern Bloc Romanian 22 lr.
Try 10 shot groups seem to get a better idea that way
Anschutz 54 super match , Eley Match , Unertl 20X Programmer, the gun that I have won the most matches with, to 200 yards
Why would anyone want the long range version? They should have just made super long range.
@@ericrumpel3105 👍
Different price point. Not everyone wants to pay top dollar.
@@timothym2241 I mean if all they want is 100 yard accuracy, the long range version is good enough yeah. Super long range is as the name say. If you want to plink 200 yards for some reason.
I build 10/22 platform rifles. Love the challenge of building an accurate shooter.
I have done the 10/22 thing
but now I have rebuilt my dads .22 (the first rifle I ever shot) and will be shooting it long range it is a marlin mdl 81 dl
I found a similar rifle to really hot rod that isn't a family heirloom
it is like an mdl 80 but an off brand a glenfield 25
I sanded and refinished the stock, free-floated the barrel and put a weaver scope on
the scope is the same vintage as the rifle
shoots great at 100 yards dont have anything longer at the moment
Wish you would put your build and modifications with the results on utube.
When I saw the NF scope I knew these .22s were outta my budget 😂😂
Ruger All weather 77 .22LR Aguila Super Extra HV Copper FMJ 22Lr realy nice
Beutiful gun my bro ❤
Wonder if we will ever get it here in NZ, with our neverending 'supply cgain issues'?
I have a couple CZ457s - 16.5" AtOne Varmint, 24" Varmint Precision chassis, 18.5" proof cf barrel boyds AtOne stock and one with a 18" lilja barrel Masterpiece Arms chassis all shooting combination of Eley ammo. Actually shooing a NRL22 match this saturday.
Which one is your favorite?
Sooo,where do we find quality 22 ammo such as this ? Would love some feedback.
