My buddy recently bought his first 10/22 and wanted to sight in a new scope. A stainless in a synthetic stock with a black Redfield rimfire scope.

It shoots pretty good. Despite the heavy, factory trigger.

So l dug out my home brewed target 10/22, that l built before the internet took off. About '93-'95-ish.

Shot a nice 10 shot group at 25 yds.



One of the first time I've actually shot it from a rest, such as it was, intending to see how well it would actually group.

The point of aim was a little black for just above the scope.



Comfortable weather with sun and no wind. It was a good morning to be out.

You have such a great range.  I wouldn’t deal with cameo if Rifle was closer.
Great shooting too!

Yes it is! I've never been to Cameo, though.

And thanks.  We were in the first pork bay to the east of the rifle range and my "rest" was my pistol bag.  With no rear bag and not on the concrete benches.  With proper bags and bench it would probably be better.

Cameo is nice.  They have a range for everything, excellent archery ranges.  The state has got to be losing a bundle of money running it.  Still like your place better.  I shoot the bow in my backyard.

Have fun on the hunt this year.  I missing out on my hunt, and I just got a grouse gun together.  Busted enough arrows I finally got a can for a 22/45.

Missed out of hunting last year and was starting to get cabin fever Jan/Feb.  So just getting out and hanging with my brother and nephew for a week will be all it takes to have a great season.

I went to the range Saturday for the first time in a while, but I didn't take any pics.

Mostly because I shot terribly...

Does the club still have the steel Buffalo halfway up the cliff?  I remember banging on that during hunter sight in with my Garand.   Some of the hunters were struggling to hit it, and I could hear “damn he hit it again”.

Yes, but...

The tree it hung from finally fell over. The buffalo is leaned up against the stump. It doesn't ring like it used to.

And it's only ~130 yds out.

I rarely take pictures because there's rarely anything worth taking pics of.

This was an exception.

Wait, the bear is the one in the tree at 130 yds.  I don't remember a buffalo at all.

There was a goat on the hillside around 400+ yds out. That was always fun to shoot but he fell over a few years ago and no one has hiked up to set him up again.

Right, it was a goat or ram.  I remember cranking up the rear for about 400.
Dang, 20 years ago no less.  Maybe 18.   Still, you have a great club there.
