Maybe we ought to move the .22lr goal out to 75yds.... After all, according to the OP results, .22lr is sitting at 5:1, whereas CFR is sitting at 3:5.... :P

I had to hold about 0.75 to 1.0 inches to the right due to the wind... Then on the last shot the wind suddenly stopped for a few seconds - throwing my shot right into the point of aim... |

I actually had to come off the scope twice to wipe the sweat out of my eyes but i honestly can't remember before which two shots, so I'm not claiming that caused the miss(es.) It was so hot we had to put towels over the rifles while not in use to keep them from getting too hot to handle. All and all a fun and challenging exercise. Thanks O_P for putting this together.

The easiest performance with this is that which you can buy, although the price of admission has come way down lately. I'd have to make another reduced silhouette target with positions and scenarios scaled larger for more realistic engagement ranges if you are going to place the targets at 50-100yds. |

A breeze from left to right was present for every shot; I held off with varying success. First set up; benchrest with a Randolph front rest - http://www.ar15.com/media/viewFile.html?i=89140 I've been having trouble with my vision, so now you know how the world looks right now.

I missed the hold off for the top target. I had fun, just in case you wondered. I also test fired a CZ 455 I bought a couple of weeks ago. That was interesting, the CCI hollowpoint ammunition would not feed, the Hornady 30 grain VMAX ammo fed perfectly (.22 Magnum). Accuracy shows promise.

I know this is an older thread, but me and TheUnicorn did this challenge today with my Thompson Center Compass in 6.5 CM shooting prone with a bipod and rear bag at 100 yards.
We used 2 different loads, TheUnicorn used 130gr Sierra TMK loaded with H4895. Been a super solid sub moa load for me for a long time. I used a load that I just worked up today with the 143 gr ELD-x with IMR 4451. Shot a good group with it this morning and I think it did really well today in this challenge.

I'll have to sort out the printer as it is unwell, but I plan to have a go at this once normality is resumed
Until then however - and assuming the printer responds to a well placed size 8 and prints off the targets - may I ask for input on a possible modification?? Lots of folk are on lockdown and cannot access an outdoor range or their usual shooting land So, what about an amendment to allow AIR PISTOL ? Could be a way for people trapped inside to still get some trigger time IF an acceptable idea - what distances would work? Could make for an extra challenge to the game plus be fun for some of the younger family members |
