    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    52C, yes single stage. I have three. One breaks at 2lbs, the other at 1.5 and the Karl Kenyon at 1. They are adjustable but I think the best you'll get out of a 52c is about 1.5 lbs.

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Kevin, sorry for the delay in responding. Took a long vacation… Anyhow, triggers. Anschutz. In a word, Awesome. They are true target triggers in the ounces and safe. T1x - out of the box a really good trigger that can be adjusted down to just under two pounds. Breaks clean and crisp...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    While I don't regularly post to this site, I'm a long time member on Rimfire Central and have lurked for some time on Sniper's Hide. I've primarily visited the sight for the .22, scope and equipment section, but with the growth of .22 long range...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Sorry guys, haven't been here in a while. Eoddave is on point. The only caveat I have it with ammo. I've shot just about everything through the lilja. Center-x, Eley Match, Eley Biathlon Match and about all the Sk grades. Bottom line it's about a 1" rifle at 100. The stock and the trigger...

    SK Long Range ammo

    "Our standard at 200 is a 3'' circle. At 300 its a 5'' circle , square , triangle or whatever in that size range. At 350 we do 6'' , 8'' and 10'' DWT, this is exactly what I was looking for. I'll figure out what ammo my rifles like at those ranges. But I'm really interested in what other...

    SK Long Range ammo

    DWT, appreciate the input. what size targets are you running at 200, 300 and 350? I have my own range as well. I shoot out to 250 yards. I'm running 5", 4" and 3" targets at 225 and 250. With Geco Rifle, I can hit 7 of 10 shots at 250 on the 5" target. Trying to bring that percentage up. I...

    At what distance were you shooting?

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Sk can be some excellent ammo and windless days are something to be savored.

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Adam, consistent .6-.8 at 100 yards is impressive. Is that an indoor or outdoor range? What match ammo are you using? Eley P100 is not match grade ammo. But I’ve found it to be very consistent for the price point. And it’s what I’m using through this phase of evaluation. If I have a rifle...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Had some calm weather today, 33-34 degrees, light variable quartering wind (5-7 o’clock). The Eley P100 continues to show promise. As I said before; I think getting the trigger down to 12-16oz would bring the groups in at least a .1-.2 at 100. Today’s average (after fouling shots) for five...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Travelor, I bought the Ruger Rimfire Precision with the intent to experiment. I wanted to see what it would do with the factory barrel, and if it was capable of consistent 1" groups at 100 yards. I was also prepared to experiment if the factory barrel was found wanting. Part of the enjoyment...

    Eddie, yes. All are 100 yards.

    Ruger Precision Rimfire with a Lilja barrel.

    Update. Was able to shoot a bit more today. The Barrel is showing consistency. Has a slight wind left to right. With Eley P100 ($6 a box Eley) 10 groups today averaged 1.09”. The rifle is proving to be consistent. What I’ve learned so far is that it is not a good bench gun. With more...

    Shooting mats

    I've started making my own shooting mats. I incorporated bipod straps similar to the full spectrum shooting mat. However, the mat is much larger (31"W x 58" L) I like having the bipod tensioning straps as they make for a solid shooting platform. The mat isn't too thick as to be bulky, the...

    how often are you guys shooting your 22's?

    Re: how often are you guys shooting your 22's? 3-5 times a week depending on wx and time. Off the bench at 100 yards and 200+ yards. 100 yards on the 1.5" spinner 237 yards at a 6x8" steel plate. Too much fun!

    Most versitile .22lr Anschutz possibly Win 52?

    Re: Most versitile .22lr Anschutz possibly Win 52? Don't rule out the sako quad. They still can be found for $650 (synthetic stock and one barrel) and can be real shooters. Mine consistently shoots 1 MOA and I've shot several 3/4" groups at 100 yards and a few 1/2". All with S&K.

    Did you sell your 10/22s after buying a .22 upper?

    Re: Did you sell your 10/22s after buying a .22 upper? I sold a few... but still have two. One wears a set of tech sights which I really like, it shoots 1/2" groups at 25 yards with bulk ammo. The other is the one I set up with a bull barrel. It's worn a 24" bull and is now outfitted with...
