@Cyclops your case and cases like it is the exact reason I allowed that slight modification to make the target a bit bigger should make it a bit easier for you a 2moa target should be easy to seeQuote:

Consoled myself with shooting a nice small group with the super batch of Eley Club I have, 0.43" - of-course it was way smaller than anything else I shot today ! - Go figure!!
Yes - a gentleman ob here got it, but delivery hasn't been taken so I'm shooting it with his permission . . . .
wish I could shoot some myself but I'm thinking that could be at least another week away as soon as Auckland gets to level 3 I can get to my mates farm and do some contactless shooting
This competition has come too late - only have one 22LR left these days... That's a wee Marlin 795 semiautomatic which we shot in on range week or so ago. Dialled it in to 0.8" group at 75m which is very acceptable for a little standard barrel semi.
Tent - my EM332s were precise wee shooters. Generally 0.3-0.4" at 50m with the occasional cherry picked 0.1 and 0.2s thrown in. Brilliant at 100 - with groups at 0.5, and several sets averaging well under 1". My range photos were all stored on photobucket which I can no longer access, but might have some saved targets of little $247 EM at 100 somewhere...
Looking forward to following the competition.. Good work rambo
Cool event! I'm looking forward to lockdown easing so I can get out and send an entry for my T1x. I also have a new .22 on the way that I'm very keen to start shooting with and will send an entry for - @rambo-6mmrem I did end up getting a good offer on a 10/22 with a Kidd barrel and 2 stage trigger which I accepted right before lockdown hit. Fingers crossed it won't be too much longer before I'm able to collect that.
Sounds like alot more Opportunity to get out from next week that’s if you have access to private property for shooting ranges are still shut in level 3 as far as im aware
Not for us Aucklanders though
Send me those targets
Give me something to do while im locked up
Waiting for level 2 so I can get back into the office and use the printer (for work purposes, I swear ;))
bump
Now that most of the Country is in level 3 and I know alot of us have access to private property for shooting
No Excuses get out there and see what these 22’s can do
Remember this is all about the average for the 5 groups…
So if you have 3 or 4 very good groups and 1 bad one it’s probably not going to kill your chances of getting on the leaderboard
Hmm may have to rebarrel the jw15
@Tentman has put in another target this time in the bolt action class
scored .564
made a mistake with @Tentman 's targetQuote:

Level 2 for most of you now
Get those dusty 22’s out the back of the safe and do some shooting guys
so outer ring is 1"?????
if this wind ever stops I may just have to make some targets up and have a go....work allowing time off in daylight of course.

However I have said that I will allow Colouring of the outer ring with a sharpie or whatever to make it a 1 inch aiming point for the older generation or people that have bad eyes or small scopes
The Official target is available for printing in 3 Colours
See the other thread for the links
Maybe a silly question but is black and white printing fine?
Yes - thats how I do mine!
One entry on it's way to you Rambo, great idea!
Yeah fineQuote:

Had a play with the CZ 457 and the Pard 007 today this rifle doesn't like Elley subs 3 good shot and 2 flyers all the time. To embarrassed to submit these targets going about .8 inch https://youtu.be/3cHGvfeyBNw
Better today, with full velocity ammo, submit this one, but expect better, the variety of ammo / price / batch Numbers -- is a whirlwind of of dissatisfaction, don't think the rifles are totally the problem. Just Saying :pissed off:Attachment 178707
Looks like a good target @flock well done you would definitely be in the lead by the looksQuote:

well done @flock i scored it 0.498 well in the lead
Great idea! My wife and I will give it a go. Will be interesting to see who shoots the best
Attachment 178762
flocks target again just relized last one was small
Dam - haven't got the 22s anymore - or the photos. Locked up in photobucket. My best four group averages at 50m (for non competition rifles) were 0.295" and 0.39". Unbelievably both were achieved with Marlin 60 semiautomatics. Sold one to R93 on the coast who went on to win competitions with it. Surprising where you find peak accuracy. No more however... eyesight not 100% these days.
Very nice shooting above - minute of bunny's eye. You might win a shoot-off with an occasional great group, but it is always continuous and consecutive group set accuracy that wins championships. I particularly like Flocks 0.49" average with Eley High Velocity ammo - that's a hunting round and will translate into excellent field accuracy.
Well done guys - looking forward to seeing more
This is definitely about consistency its a very Difficult job to shoot Five Consecutive good groups that’s the hole ideaQuote:

I'm still getting to grips with this a new rifle, so this comp is making me take some notes, had an Brno once, old Model 2 that shot the Aussy powerpoint lights out, again didn't take records.
Get into it .25 is achievable, enjoy having a play:thumbsup:

On top of that he said the rounds were super tight to chamber like had to hammer the bolt home with your plam
Doesn't have a Match chamber, like the MTR so no chambering issues. Seems well made and should be for the price, added a trigger spring from Yodave, sorted the trigger out nicely. Cleaning with a 22 rod felt like the rod was binding, because it wasn't shooting as well as expected took the barrel off gave it a light JBs. Barrel removal system is good, looking at purchasing a hmr barrel into the future. Action with its shortened throw is a joy to use, recently removed tiny amounts of wood from the stock as the action wasn't sitting down on the pillar beds quite right, bedded the back recoil lug as it was floating around. Haven't tested the later stuff as yet and some decent ammo would help. Cheers
@flock you have certainly got it shooting well especially with high vol hunting ammo with a bit of work factory rifles are mass produced so sometimes they do need a tickle up here and there surprised to hear you needed to give the barrel a slight lapping cz barrels are normally very goodQuote:

you are on the right track with eley for sure maybe try the match (black box) or club (brown box)
@janleroux target
Attachment 178859
Not applicable but a cherry picked group, using some old CCi standard, rest of the groups were degusting. Bit that got me is I adjusted scope forwards and forgot to tighten the back rings at the base. LOL
Attachment 179421
@flock imagine 5 more of them i run that one group over my software very quick and rough not carefully like i do with the entry's but it was 0.261
Thanks ---- Go for it Guys -- the quarter inch is extremely do able. Question are you allowed to submit more than one target?
Ofcorse you are @flock @Tentman has already done about 6 spread across bolt action and semi automatic classQuote:

So yeah hell you can enter 50 targets if you want but only the best one will count you could turn it into a personal comp where the goal is to beat the last target you submitted
You can enter all 3 categories so if you’re good you might get in the top 3 for all of them
