    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    Those are awesome videos! I liked in the first one how you went to all different distances from one shot to the next, and you were able to set those targets up in this space. At regular shooting ranges here, you only get one distance, no mid-range shooting, paper only. The longest distance I can...

    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    I am now leaning toward the 10/22 upgrade, since I already have one. Changing the barrel is straight forward. So is changing the trigger group. I'm looking at the BSA scopes now - their 3x9x40 Mil Dot is $100. So for the extra $50 I might as well go for the 6x24 and get more magnification out of...

    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    Hmmm...and when you're using a 20 - MOA base with a large scope...yes the high stock is better. If the scope is high and the stock comb is low, you won't be able to hit the side of a barn - defeats the whole point of the exercise. Been there and done it with a Mauser M48. I got rid of it and put...

    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    My 10/22 is stock everything. I'm shooting Remington Viper 36 gn. I get about an inch at 50 yd. I rest the rifle on a front sandbag resting on an ammo can. No bipod, no monopod. A re-re-scope and an ammo change will be much cheaper than $800. Probably around $225.

    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    Firecat, The BRJ is certainly a consideration. I'm wondering what the advantages are of a fluted barrel versus a regular heavy barrel. Two front swivel studs for me is something I can take or leave. For me, if I proceed, it would come down to which is the more accurate of the two rifles...

    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    Moving right now is not really an option for me. Too many ties that bind me here, but that is something I would do in the future. For the here and now, absent a place to shoot .338 LM or other such, my options are the .22LR rig, just shoot the .308 Savage at 300, or work on the 10/22 and push...

    Long Range .22 Long Rifle

    This is my second post on the site and I'm glad the subject of .22LR for long range is being discussed. This is one of three projects I'm very seriously considering this year. As previous posters indicated, a .22LR can be shot out to 500 yd and a video was posted to prove it. This roughly mimics...

    ** PA - Looking for a 1000 yard to 1 mile range that offer tactical shots too?

    Good evening. I'm also extremely interested in this. I currently use Ontelaunee, which is good for up to 300 and general purpose shooting. I'm looking to push to the next level. I was going to buy and soup up a Savage 111 Long Range in .338 Lapua, but if I have no place to shoot the thing...
