A bunch of us guys get together regularly and have 22LR shooting contests. Big money changes hands; often as much as 5 bucks to the winner in the 2 categories: rifle and hand gun. We can use any firearm we want to as long as it is as stock as a rock factory offering. No custom works allowed. Any scope, any ammo, any rest. The level of B/S is incredible, and gets worse as the day progresses. A manure fork, hip boots and an extremely thick skin are standard "accessories." A couple of the guys have been using Ruger Precision Rifles, and they've been scooping up most of the "gold" here lately. I just saw this ad by Ruger and it sounds like an interesting rifle that I could compete with at our matches. I'll see if I can get my hands on one of them and give you a report on how it and I do! https://www.ruger.com/products/americanRimfireLRT/specSheets/8378.html

Lot of guys over on the ole snipers hide say this model is a epic fail, but I’ll say them dudes are vudoo, and cz/tika custom snobs..
I like the looks of it, I hope it shoots well I was considering one for my boy to shoot in some of these matches that pop up every once in a while.

Shoulda made that rail 20 degrees if they wanted to call it ‘Long-Range Target’
Do not trifle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Agree tab but not all scopes have room to dial that 40.

22" barrel on a rimfire. 
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.
