I attempted the 6x5 with two different ammo, out of curiosity. Sight-in / fowling 10-shot groups went well.
The wind picked up quite a bit, but I decided to try it anyway. Not a good idea.
First the Center-X.
I've been wondering if that lot is having some odd fliers in my rifle, so I tried some SK Rifle Match.
I'll wait for less wind next time.

I hate the wind that gun will shoot like group 2 and 6 in last photo more often then not. Wind is my enemy on my hill multiple cross winds due to opposing hills and 2 draws.I attempted the 6x5 with two different ammo, out of curiosity. Sight-in / fowling 10-shot groups went well.

New guy here. Came across this forum when searching for information about what one could reasonably expect from a 22 accuracy wise. This thread has cost me a bunch of money over the last month. Anyway:
Tikka T1X, 20 inch barrel, Athlon Talos BTR 4-14, Eley Tenex, best lot out of 6 different lots measured CTC. 100 yards.

Jerry, that is excellent shooting! But just to make sure it’s the same rifle you already have on the results.
Cool, so you know this isnt a monthly thing you can submit as often as you like. I enjoy seeing peoples targets.
Got to the range to text some velocities of some different ammo so I threw down a 6X5 with the new build.
It's a Rim X, with a 20" Benchmark 3 groove in a Xylo chassis, with a Bix'n Andy TacSport Pro, and a NXS 5.5-22X50 on top. I only have a few hundred rounds on it now (2nd trip to the range) but I think it's going to be a shooter. I am happy with the cold bore. It was a little windy and I was holding off trying to keep them in the middle. I wasn't always successful as you can see, but I did my best. This was at 100 yards.

Today I tried the 6X5 at 100 yards. I usually shoot ten-shot groups at 100. It was calm this morning, about 65 deg. F at first, rising to 80 deg. by the time I was finished later in the morning.
Below is the second target I shot with a lot of Midas + that is good but often has one or more strays in each box as can be seen. The six group average is 0.676 inches (.646 MOA).
My best 6X5 target this morning was shot with a lot of CX that never seems to produce the smallest of groups but is almost always consistently under an inch at 100. The six group average is 0.651 inches (.622 MOA).
Below is the rifle, a 1973 vintage Anschutz, originally a 1411 prone model, now with an Anschutz BR50 stock. The scope is a SIIB 36X. The front rest shown is the one used today.

Shooters, if you're interested in trying a long distance match, come on over to the link below. I just posted a new match you can shoot at 200, 300 or 400 yards, or all three! If you've got a long distance itch, this may just help you scratch it!

Was sighting in the Vudoo with some new ammo at 50 yds and the zero session turned into a "6XFly". Only went 4 for 6, so I will post an official target when I get all six....
