In a .22 LR match you oughta' be able to buy a mulligan.


An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

What type of gun? My issue may have been specific to the tight chamber in my Green Mountain barrel.

I second that, and was thinking the same thing yesterday at the range shooting my 10/22. I always wonder where the first shots are going to go, like a first drive on the tee.....the Wolf is more predictable on the first shot but the Aguila is anyone's guess but after the first shot in a new mag 2-10 group very nice at 50.

I finally have a decent shooting .22 LR. It's a 33 year old Marlin Model 60 with a 22" barrel. Last weekend I put Warne rings and a decent scope on it. Shot CCI ammo and was still getting a flyer about every 10 rounds.

i went with my b.i.l. and his son last weekend and played with a marlin bolt action 22lr. b.i.l. shot the center target and said something is wrong with the rifle. i shot the next 45 rounds and said yup, it shoots a little to the left

That target sure looks like 100 yards for center target and 25 for the others....by the same person.

Marlin bolt rim fires have always been good.
