[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 768857, member: 2736"] I have done lots of position shooting with High Power rifles and use small bore rifles for lots of the practice, But have not compeated in small bore (22 RF). So take my advice for what it is worth. I to like the Anschutz 54 and 64 actions. I have built many 17 HMRs on them and they are deadly at 100 yards (less than 1/2' 10 shot groups). I like to fit my own barrel so I buy a stainless Lilja blank and do the chambering and fitting to the reciever(I do the press fit and 2 pin method) One of the most important parts of a position rifle of any kind is the Stock. It must fit the shooter in everyway. In your case short and reasonable light and perfictly balanced. After a good barrel, stock and good smithing comes the ammo. Everything has to be right to shoot well. Just because ammo is expensave does not make it accurate so try everything you can put your hands on price not with standing. Rim fires are the most finicky as far as ammo goes. I competed in small bore pistols (Off hand) with 4 different brands and found that each liked different brands of ammo. Note; None of them liked Eley as much as the other ammo brands that was the best for that pistol and my rifles. If they had prefered the Eley I of course would have used it. The closest thing to the best that I tried was RWS 100. One other thing that I found was that every thing that shot well in my pistols and rimfire rifles was led bullets (No Jacketed bullets). So, A good shooter cant shoot well with a poor rifle, and a poor shooter cant shoot well with a good rifle. It takes every thing to work and the shooter is a major part of it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
