I put "range report" in quotes because this was
very informal and brief. I hadn't received the magazines or triggerguard yet from
www.e-gunparts.com, so I was limited to single-round loading, which is a real pain in the a$$ with this rifle.
Anyway, from a kneeling position at about 35 feet, using Ely Practice .22lr ammo, it shot a 5 shot, 5/8 inch group. I think if I used some sandbags, this rifle could produce some very tight groups. Not bad for a 50-year old gun!
Of course, when I got back from Wisconsin, there was a UPS package in the door with the mags and trigger guard. The mags are interesting - there's a removeable screw in the floorplate that, when in place, limits the mag to single-shot capacity. When removed, it's a 7-shot mag. I think this must have been a military requirement, since you can't load a single round by just putting it in the chamber and closing the bolt.
For $75, this was a great bargain. I spent another $94 on the mags and trigger guard, but now I've got a nice little tack driver. Very fun to shoot.
