[QUOTE="britz, post: 216892, member: 7865"] Tyler had a good point. Earlier I mentioned that I have shot a 600 with a 22 lr at rocks in a plowed field. I was getting in around 3 or so feet of my intended target most of the time after several spotter rounds. and thought that was pretty good (I was only 15 at the time and was very new to precison shooting). now that I think of it I was shooting open sights using extreme amounts of elevation. I was shooting with the base of the front sight baried on the target or more (again, I am going from memory from 13 years ago). The thing is that I simply will not believe that you will be able to print ANY kind of group at 1000 yards with a semi auto factory 22 in standard conditions. Way too many variables and way too little BC to combat those variables. Heck, a normal deer hunter grade shooter would be hard pressed to shoot a 2 foot pattern with their deer rifle at 700 yards, much less what you are attempting. I will be the first to apologise for my stobborness when you show me a good group at 1000 with a 22Lr. [/QUOTE]
