[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1527039, member: 85987"] Just shoot more. Take your 22 to the range and either get a good bdc reticle or a 6-10swfa. This will teach you how to dial/hold and more importantly accommodate the wind's wishes. I shoot my model 60 to 300yds so it's not like you need to go out and buy a voodoo or anschutz. Most 22's will shoot well you just need to shoot a bunch of ammo to find out what it wants. Marlin's microgroove barrel wants copper clad bullets. If I feed it federal match lead it's a grapefruit sized group at 100 yds. If I shoot remington yellow jacket 40grn truncated jacketed bullets it's 1-1.25 moa for a 50 shot group. CCI mini mag is tighter at 100 but not as good at distance. A 22 is about the best practice you are going to get if you don't have more yardage available. Even 100 yds will teach you alot. Just the ammo process is critical to being successful. [/QUOTE]
