I'm going to shoot it over New Years weekend. I'm really looking forward to putting some rounds through the rifle.

All right, shot the my son's Ruger 10/22 that I upgraded for him for Christmas.

This is a 10 shot group at 100 yards. It should get better after the new 20 inch fluted barrel gets broke in.

Excellent, what brand of barrel did you use?

wibornz · 12-26-2012, 07:14 PM

A Green Mountain 20 inch stainless steel fluted with a target crown.

I have the 20 inch Green Mtn fluted barrel on my hot rod 10-22. My buddy and I have contests with 1 inch swingers at a 100 yards. first one to clean a 10 shot run wins, then 15 shot runs. etc...
It is great training. Amazing how accurate the platform can be.

Great choice, Green Mtn barrels are an excellent value and are very underrated in my experience.

I would have never guessed one of those would shoot groups like that at 100.

50, yes, but 100 is a whole different game.

Did you bed that barrel or do any of the fancy mounting to the receiver things? I'm gonna have to build one of my 10-22's like that.

I have seldom seen any kind of .22 that will shoot groups like that at 100. I have only done that with a Remy 40x. But I agree about the Green Mt. barrels, I have three of them for my 10/22s and they really love SK Standard Plus.

That is something....I would bet it would be indoors....there is a great deal that goes on in 100yards outside....the slightest wiff of a brease would have effects.

I shot small bore sillhoutte and the first time I did it I was amazed just how long it took a 22LR to go 100m

We've all got that target we managed to create once.

I just picked up a remington597, I wanted something cheap to shoot 9mms and 223s are going to get expensive. As far as ammo goes what is the best to shoot in these semis. I have a savage single shot and a 1953 ruger single six that will shoot anything, but today I shot 50rds through the new remington and had 6 fail to fires. ammo was remington golden. $6 per 100 dont mind paying a little more for better ammo.
