50 rounds, 1 box of 22lr cartridges isn't a big deal.
Most folks go through 3 or 4 boxes of 22lr per range visit.
Shooting 5 shot groups and then cherry picking the single best random act of accuracy to post.
My question is : What happened to the other 45?
Funny, folks get all butt hurt after that.
You'd think I'd accused them of exaggerating.
So in order to avoid any possible excuses,
if someone claims superb results with rimfire,
I expect to see a single group of 50.
No cherry picking, no pulled shots, no supposedly called fliers,
just one cluster of holes at the distance being bragged about.
If you can't keep sub moa for 50 shots, then "all day long" is just wishful thinking.
Yep, it does have a tendency to annoy folks when they get asked to back up their talk.
But it does make for interesting conversations when they attempt it.
If I really want to make my point, have 'em try hanging 2 USBR Green Monsters on the backer.
One dot, one shot, 50 times, see how well that works out.
