Just curious to how far you guys have stretched a .22LR. I am by no means a distance shooter, but I think suppressed bolt action rimfire is as fun as shooting gets.
Gun is a savage mkii 21.5" Barrel. Ammo is CCI 40g SV.
8-12mph full value wind. Shooting downhill about 4 degrees.
Target is verified 286 yards. Shooting at the fire extinguisher and 8" Steel plate. Confirmed my dope @ 150 yards
It took me 12 rounds to hit the Fire Extinguisher. After hitting that, I got 4 consecutive hits on the steel plate.
Drop at that range is 144 Inches.
This gun is surprisingly accurate. I have no way to measure groups at that range.
I would like to try some Wolf MT 40g, I hear they group twice as tight in these guns.
Anyone else shoot rimfire at distance?
