Have been shooting a lot of 22LR lately and have been mixing up what I've been doing during that time. Shooting for groups is fine but wanted to get into 100-200, possibly 250yard shooting with the 22.
I found a list of targets the guys over at 6mmBR used for their 22 competitions and started running the course of fire to keep things interesting. Here's a link to some of them (towards the end): Rimfire Tactical Precision Match
I especially like the 5 round speed drill on 3/4 in circles. The competition called for this to be done in 1 minute at 50 yards - I've been doing it at 100 and 150 in under 30 seconds after knocking 5 for 5 at 50 almost 100% of the time. That lead me to my question as to how confidant with your rifle and setup, would you be at knocking out this drill in >30 seconds at 100 yards?
I can usually get the first 3 and then started to make the same error I made while in school when shifting the rifle in-front of my face instead of shifting my arms/shoulder to shoot the last 2 dots to the far right which gave me a parallax error; took 4 targets for me to figure out WTF I was doing wrong because they would have the first 3 nailed and then the last 2 would be something like 1.5 inches to the side or high.
