I shoot quite a bit of "long range" .22, all suppressed with CCI SV. I'm running an MOA scope with a 30 mm tube. To answer your question Buzz, a standard 1" scope will not give you enough elevation to dial longer distances. My come ups with a 50 yd zero are, 6.25 MOA @ 100, 15 MOA @ 150, and 25 MOA @ 200. I believe my come up at 300 is something like 42-44 MOA. I don't have enough elevation to dial that yet. I can max out my turret, and hold my last mil-dot and make hits on a 2/3 IPSC at that range though. I'm about to order a 25 MOA rail which should take care of that.

I shot these last Sunday. Left to right are my 100 yd, 150 and 200 yd targets. I've had the 100 yd for a while now, and he gets abused. He's been repainted and hammered back out straight multiple times. These are great popper targets I picked up at Academy for $20.

Dang y'all have me searching for a 22LR today. Stumbled across the new Ruger American Target can't find any of the 22lr in stock anywhere only the 22M ant 17HMR. Looks pretty cool. Nice laminate stock, adjustable trigger, heavy threaded barrel for my suppressor, and uses the tried and true 10 round 10/22 rotary mags. If anyone can find one I'm in the market. This is the one I'm looking for I want this rifle.

Yeah, it's a x ring. Not sure if the eotech is the correct optic, but the kids love it and it's easy for them to use. I did have to get the higher cheek weld for it to line up right though.

Roger that lol I usually don't shoot too far, what do you need to reach out there? 1" or 30mm Rimfire specific scope or will the centerfire ones handle the crazy recoil This is something I'm starting to get into and would welcome any advise That Kidd rifle looks amazing btw Thx

There are also rimfire silhouette matches at the Haltom city gun club and the Arlington Sportsmans club. Competitions are open to all comers not just members.

Patrick, there is a group in Utah that have a rimfire challenge. Many of them use Sightron and SS on custom Ruger/Valquestern rifles. They have a huge youtube following and trying to grow it outside of Utah. Marksmanship Challenge https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzDSJ-eBsPCJl99XVN9Y79g

I love shooting 22lr. These are my 2 favorite 22lrs. Both are extremely accurate. Savage/Anschutz 54 sporter from 1968 Custom CZ455 with a 24” Shilen SM Ratchet barrel that I just got.

I had a Savage Anschutz 141 Sporter, got it for Christmas in 67. My folks paid $89.50 for it. Loved that gun, sold it of course. Let's get this .22 match on the calendar, so we can plan ahead. Whenever JG is ready of course.

I wonder if I have flight time enough to shoot at 300 yards, get off the rifle, and move over to the spotting scope.
