    22 rimfire tuner

    when I bought the Marlin for the grandson, he was very young . probably around 4 or 5 years old . I thought that would be good enough for him to learn shooting and safety with , and kill a few pop cans . since then the long range bug has bitten me on the rimfires . I'm already sorry I...

    22 rimfire tuner

    those targets were shot at 50 yards . I just put the scope on the tikka and was getting a 50 yard zero . I shot both ammos again just to be sure I was correct in remembering the Eley being better . I really don't know what to expect , it's not a special target rifle .the only thing I've done...

    CCI BR2

    22 rimfire tuner

    this is the ammo I have been messing with . I'm guessing I bought it around 2005 . I didn't take any targets along this day . so I made due with what I had . I'm not sure how big the circles are , but the masking tape would be 3/4" wide . I'm not sure how many shots are on the targets . you...

    22 rimfire tuner

    I'm trying to use this ammo , instead of it just setting here . I thought if I could buy a $200 tuner and be able to shoot about $1500 - $2000 of ammo , it would be a good trade off . my grandsons rifle shoots the CCI pretty good. for all the more we get together to shoot , this will be a...

    22 rimfire tuner

    have any of you guys used a barrel tuner ? I have 4 cases , 20,000 rounds , of CCI std velocity ammo . this ammo doesn't shoot well in my Tikka T1x rifle . will a tuner dial this in ? I've never messed with a tuner , and don't know if it would be worth a try .

    30-06 O.A.C.L.’s

    I like to start out long , then I only have one way to go , that's shorter . I start out at the max length that my rifle allows . that length will be either the bullet touching the barrel lands , or the magazine box length . I'll find the length to touching the lands and go 0.010 shorter ...
