    I have violated the first paragraph of the rules I think with all my groups, so if desired remove my results. I've never shot prone and my range is not set up to shoot prone. I'm 59 and can get down in the prone position but may need help getting up. LOL First paragraph of the rules, copy and...

    Thanks guys, I'm blessed to have a few good rifles. A young shooter could make them shine.

    jbell Would there any objection to me shooting and posting a 6 X 5 shot with aperture sights? I got my Redfield equipped 52E out today for the first time since last fall and put a few rounds through her, thinking a 6 X 5 with it would be interesting to do. Thanks, Justin

    Today I shot one of my 52's, a D and my only 52 with a scope. This rifle hasn't shot as well as the others with any of the four lots of SK Std. Plus. I had added a stiffener to the cantilever scope mount a while back and wanted to shoot it to see if it made any difference and it seems to be more...

    I shot my 40X today, 24X Unertl, 50 yards off a bench, front rest, rear bag with Center-X. I shoot down under a hill and the wind blew from everywhere, at times my two flags were pointing in opposite directions. Target one: .306" avg, .105" best Target two: .273" avg, .144" best

    That is some fine shooting and a fine rifle. What's a set up like it cost, $10,000? Having never seen that particular scope brand so I had my friend google check. I'd have to sell all four of my 52's to buy one. LOL...

    Tikka T1X

    For the guys with rough bolts I wonder if applying a coat of lapping compound and working them would smooth them up?

    How to store match 22lr ammo

    Me too. I just put a couple boxes in my range box (small plastic tote) along with my rear rest and wind flags.

    Very good shooting padom. I tried a bipod on my T1X once, it was like shooting off a pogo stick. Maybe I need to revisit it.

    how to clean a precision rimfire 22 barrel ?

    I have four 52's and one 40XB, all bought used. A couple of them seemed to not clean up with Boretech Rimfire Blend or Hoppies #9. I could clean with a brush and pull three or four clean patches the another with solvent and they'd come out dirty again. So I bought a small tub of JB Bore paste...

    Thanks. I'll try to get some photos, she's been used. The previous owners dad bought it from the CMP in 2004. The 0.403" on my smallest group was outside to outside, center to center should be 0.180" using . 223 as the bullet diameter. Thanks, Justin.

    I'm really anxious to see what it'll do with my good lot of Std. Plus and Center-X.

    11 X 5 Today after another unsuccessful turkey hunt I decided to do a little shooting. My goal was to work on me as I haven't got to shoot much this year. I started out with one of my 52D's and ran about 300 rounds through it. Next I shot a 40XB that I bought back in February. Other than...

    Vudoo vs tikka T1x

    What does it cost to set up a Vudoo, without a scope and mounts? My Tikka was $452 out the door, $132 Jard trigger + $8 shipping and $65 of stock upgrades from Tikka, $657 total. IMHO a Tikka/ Vudoo comparison is like comparing a good German made pocket knife to a Case you'd buy at wally world...

    Savage Mark ii - Good for NRL22?

    I've had my Savage BTVLSS for 10 or 12 years and have never had any feed, extraction or magazine issues. I guess I got lucky as it's accurate and the bolt is slick as a whistle. A very good rifle for the money IMO.

    Aerodynamic Jump with 22lr.

    If the hash marks in your scope are that coarse you need a better scope. The hash marks are so fine (15 points to the right of the decimal) that I have to have a magnifying glass to see them. I wet my thumb to check wind speed and direction, then figure in my head using Merlins short method...
