    If you are a paper puncher then I guess you will always want a smaller / tighter group. Thats the nature of target shooting.

    If you want to shoot rabbits etc then your groups are excellent, rabbit won't care how small your groups are and what rifle you are using. All those groups pictured are dead rabbits.
    Im pretty much asking what a reasonable group out of a 22lr is as I have no idea really, seems they are reasonable. I got the rifle for my 13th birthday which was over 20 years ago and only got my license recently so havent shoot for years and when I was a kid I never got to go through 200rnds for fun (I probably doubled the number thats gone through it!!). I was probably a little bit worried that it was a bad one as Dads 10/22 seems to shoot a bit better...

    So I have found out that it likes the CCI subs and the Whinchester HV (which looks like it may group better in this one) and in the process of going through a few packets of ammo my trigger work got better (if thats a thing) and the groups did tighten up to what is here.

    I did also try the Guncity $75 one quickly and it produced similar groups but the magazine didnt want to feed and the 5rnd one was too hard to get out of the stock I made.
