[QUOTE="Alfred Crouch, post: 279128, member: 13464"] My concern with shooting at animals over 100 yards is accuracy and having enough terminal bullet energy left to do the job. As has been said it doesn't take much wind to play havoc with a 22 bullet. It may be a few weeks before I get to run the test. I live in northern SC and do most of my shooting and hunting on some land I have in the central part of the state. It is 100 miles distance so I don't get to go there as frequently as I would like. I would like to see some studies on the terminal energy of the 22 rimfire bullet at different distance beyond 100 yards. My experience leads me to believe it drops off drastically after passing 100 yards. Anyone have any info on this. Thanksl Al Crouch [/QUOTE]
