I would do some experminting and try different types of ammo, you would be suprised how good those rifles shoot with the right ammo its all about trial and error </div></div>
I did some ammo testing today and esatblished dope at 150 and 200 yards.
Wolf Extra Match---This is the ammo I began with in this rifle and it shoots fairly decent.Found a flyer about every sixth shot.
50 yds.--- .75
75 yds.--- 1.25
Wolf match-- No noticable flyers
50 yds.--- .25
75 yds.--- .50
CCI Match Green tag
This ammo shot near the same as the Wolf Match. No noticable flyers.
Unfortunately the wind picked up and I was holding 1.5 mils for wind at 200 yards and with the Wolf match shot this----
These where the best eight out of 12 rounds but all where on the paper, it took a few shots to figure out the wind and trying to shoot between gust. I feel like I got lucky. Looking foward to a calm day!!
Range pict, target was on the dirt pile right of the clump of trees. this is 205 yards from the muzzle.
The Stick!!
