Who here is using a AR22 style rifle for these kinds of competitions?
I may dip my toes into the precision .22lr world in the near future, but don't have the funds to build a dedicated Rim-X/Vudoo build (unless I sell one of my center-fire rifles to fund).
I'm debating about assembling a precision AR-22 rifle, something like a CLE match rifle upper or a Keystone Upper build to pair with my existing SR-15 lower.
I guess I'm curious if such a build would be competitive in these competitions, or if I would just be trying to kick water uphill. I understand that for ultimate accuracy bolt guns are king (just like center-fire), but would the precision of a CLE match upper or a Keystone be at least somewhat competitive?
I'm not looking to set the rimfire world on fire, just to have fun with an accurate enough rifle to at least be somewhat competitive in these matches. Bonus is that such a rifle would make a good trainer for the CD Team Safari matches that I plan on shooting in.
Anyways, look forward to the discussion and hearing thoughts from the crowd here.
