Yes all 100yd. I said i was shooting the same ammo I previously shot a week ago at 50yd. Ill post video later today
Thanks man. Sure is shooting super consistent across various types and lots. 100yd really shows how a good 22lr shoots.
Here's 3 boring ass videos of me shooting all 150rd on the above posted 100yd target for anyone that cares. And a 4th video picking up the camera at the firing line and walking to the 100yd backstop to show the target just shot. You know, because this is the internet and video or it never happened.
I feel the same way about the BR, if I had yo money , i’d order one just to see!
Haha! I have one rifle, an Anschutz 1903 in a benchrest stock, and have been shooting postal matches for a couple of years. It's time to sell that one, and get me a shooter like yours. Just waiting to see if Mike has something up his sleeve with the new rifle. You set a high standard for him to improve on with the new rifle. Before the year is out, I will have me a Vudoo, repeater or single-shot, one way or the other...
Take care and good shooting!
i shot this backup a few minutes ago, usually takes me about 30-45 min. It’s not quite as good as yesterday but enough to make me think my “break through” is gona stick. Hey J, don’t waste your time on thisun.

I recently put a Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25 on my 10-22. I was shooting some 100 yard groups and on the last 2 groups I was shooting fast before the wind changed. Wind was 5-10 MPH and swirling a little. This will be in last place, but hey, it's a 10-22. 
Best group: .777" and average was 1.471". Bench, bi-pod and rear bag. Ignore the holes in the bottom of the target. That was a different rifle. Cold bore shot really opened up the first group.

@jbell you have my 100yd results as Zermatt RimX Benchmark. Its not the Benchmark....its the RimX Keystone Accuracy Green Mountain
Damn, good catch! do you remember what the benchmark did at 100 yards so I can get it posted back up, I’ll fix the barrel now. I need to remember to watch which barrel your shooting.
Thanks, I went back and found it on 4/23. They both should be there now. Thank you for letting me know...
jbell, I was able to complete a 100 and 200 6x5 today. I also took a pic of my setup for your files.

Nice shooting and nice looking rifle. I have you on the 100 & 200 results.
I didn't get to the range till late in the evening today. Had time to shoot one 6x5 and then move on to practicing silhouette targets with iron sights. Screwed by the wind again. This rifle will shoot well, but I need to work on my wind reading and patience.
I was shooting the Remington 37 topped with the Leupold 30x40.
Ammo was SK Standard Plus.
Target distance 50 yards.
Wind 12mph with gusts, shifting from 12 o'clock to 2 o'clock.

I've updated my spreadsheet with everyone's scores for the last week.
Here's the google spreadsheet downloadable as an Excel file or viewable as an html file.

Thx Cuzz. I did see that target but I was particularly looking for the one in post #1221. I like the way it's laid out.
My first 6x5 from the prone position. I need to practice in this position more often.
Shot my best 50yd group, so far, but beating my best average didn't happen.

Got the Bartlein screwd on this morning, the 3rd in my RimX review. I was at the range by 8:30am to get this testing in before the wind picked up. Had a 3-8 MPH wind, temps were 68F.
This Bartlein has taken the cake so far out of the 3 barrels Ive tested. Super consistent across all the ammo tested where the other barrels generally had 1 or 2 that shot well. I had 3 different types of ammo that beat my best 6x5 results to date on this one target. Whats even more amazing is the 10x5 results in the 0.1's!! But that SK+ holly shit. Threw flyers in the first 2 barrels in almost every group. Not this barrel. It LOVES it!
No video today, I brought the camcorder but forgot the tripod at this house this morning. I will have video recording next outing when I take this baby out to 100yd.

The 6 groups are to be shot consecutively 30 shots in a row from how I understand the rules.
Nice! What scope are you using? How did you calculate your 6x5? I can't reproduce your numbers. I added all your results to my spreadsheet.
Add all 10 groups then divide by 10...add 6 best groups in a row and divide by 6. They correct, don't you worry. All triple checked with calculator
And it appears my math was off, my number is actually too high on the top row. From left to right, first 6 groups is 0.1796" on my calculator... Not 0.182"
Not calling anyone a liar, just can't reproduce your numbers. In fact, if I sort each set from lowest to highest and calculate the top 6 average for the 6x5, the numbers are actually better than what you reported in your image.
And thats why we have someone that handles calculating, checking and posting the results and keeping track.... @jbell
You dont sort and pic the top best 6 groups..... I shoot 10x5's.... The 6x5 must be 6 consecutive groups.... not the best 6 groups out of my 10 groups.... Soooo.... if you take the top row, labeled #7 CenterX. Add up the first 6 groups from left to right (which is how I shot them)... That is: 0.222 + 0.144 + 0.217 + 0.074 + 0.150 + 0.271 = 1.078 / 6 = 0.1796666" Ill round that up to 0.180".... I wrote on the target 0.182". I was off by 0.002 not in my favor... I just posted that correction above... My 10x5 is correct.. Thanks for having me check and lower my score!
padom, good shooting. He was only bringing up the point since his calc did not match yours. Your note says to add the best 6 groups in a row and divide by 6. Your recheck is correct with the average of 0.180. Very good shooting indeed!
Thanks, i cheated before i read this but me and the wind blew it anyway.
I need some hillbilly simplification here please. I'm a high power rifle shooter just getting g into this 22lr stuff. What is a 6x5? Also I'd like to keep practicing with what I'm doing out to 200 yards. So far this is the absolutely best I've done at 100 yards. How do I measure it and push myself to get where you guys are at? Please pardon my lack of understanding the 6x5. Any clarification would be appreciated, thanks, Jeremy

Sorry, not trying to be nuisance, I was just wondering because I was trying to figure out what number to use for the best group size for my spreadsheet in the 6x5. I tried taking the first 6 or the top 6 and couldn't reproduce your numbers. This is what I'm getting according to your method described above.
| 6x5 Average | Best Group | |||||||
| Center-X | 0.222 | 0.144 | 0.217 | 0.074 | 0.150 | 0.271 | 0.180 | 0.074 |
| Center-X | 0.304 | 0.575 | 0.364 | 0.187 | 0.138 | 0.307 | 0.313 | 0.138 |
| Federal UM22 | 0.232 | 0.082 | 0.124 | 0.329 | 0.269 | 0.147 | 0.197 | 0.082 |

Jeremy, check out page one of this thread, as jbell explains the process pretty well. You can shoot 6 (targets or bulleyes) with 5 shots on each and then measure the group size. You take the two shots that are the farthest away from the 5 shot group, and measure the distance between them. You can use a ruler with 1/16th's of an inch increments or use a caliper. Measure from the center of one of the widest holes to the center of the other widest hole, and record that info for that group size. Do that on each target or bullseye, and also collect the additional data outlined on page one of the thread and you should be set. One page one, go to the "current" section where jbell records everyone's data that is submitted to him. You'll need to record your info on the targets, and take a picture and then post to this forum, use "attach files" below to add your targets, and then hit "post reply". jbell will respond if there's any info missing and will confirm he has your target data recorded on the "Current" list on page one. If you need any other help or have questions, feel free to post a note and the folks here will help you out. Good luck!
CoolJJ, per the rules, we have to shoot 6 consecutive targets, 5 shots each, and then report those results. You average all 5 groups for the total average (like you did on the Lapua Center-X, row one above, 0.180 is the total average. Next, review those same 6 targets, and record the smallest group as the best group (like you did above on the same Lapua row (0.074)). When folks submit new targets, both numbers (from a tracking how well folks are doing perspective) may change if they are able to shoot a better overall average or a smaller single group.
Hope this helps?
