.22 LR at 200 yards

Post by Brass Rat » Sun Nov 19, 2006 5:42 pm

A month or so ago I bought a rear sight riser block for my Suhl Model 150 .22 LR target rifle so I could get enough elevation to shoot at 200 yards. I finally got a chance to try it out today and I am pretty impressed with the accuracy of off the shelf CCI MiniMags in spite of the 10-30 mph wind that was gusting from left to right all day.

I actually need the rear sight to go down another 10-15 clicks but it is on the bottom so I had to hold the bull at the top of the front aperture rather than centered.

The block raised the rear sight about .400" so I need to try and find a deal on a 4mm riser for the front and I should be able to dial it in.

I used my Greener .22rf conversion at Bisley its a Martini Mk11 and at 200 yards recorded 37 ex 50. Good marking as it is one quiet weapon. I used CCI Green tag as it really is very good!
I'd rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy!
