Re: Rimfire Comp targets... Well, that could very well be. I just read the sizes listed at the bottom... Ok, I'll stick to shooting the little fellers (if it ever stops raining). Thanks !

Does anybody else have problems getting the targets to print to the right size? I have been shooting the Tac 50 target and finally decided to measure my circles... the 3/4 group challenge was barely over 1/2" - that's when printed on my printer at 100% If I print them then copy them at 120%...

Re: APRIL 2012 SH SHORT RANGE RIMFIRE COMPETITIONS I know it won't count, and I'm good with that - BUT I snuck out today and bought another box of CCI Subsonics to try again. HUGE difference, which surprises me because the Standard Velocity didn't shoot THAT much worse when I originally...

Re: Marlin problems I think Norcal Phoenix might be on to something. I took my Marlin XT (the skinny barreled version) out of the action to adjust the trigger, and it shot worse after I put it back together. It will at times chew a ragged hole for 5-7 rounds, then throw two or three a...

Re: APRIL 2012 SH SHORT RANGE RIMFIRE COMPETITIONS In the interest of full disclosure, here goes. I have a lot of work to do still on ammo selection and setting up this Marlin XT - and I was out of the subsonic that it seems to like best... but I squeezed in two attempts at the Tac 50 this...

Re: crazy shots!!!! lets hear about them... I was shooting one of my agency's 308s at 110 yds one afternoon when a bumble bee kept hovering over one of the yellow and black target dots on my target. I started tracking him, hoping to shoot him "on the move" but he kept changing directions and...

Re: Rezeroing target knobs on Centerpoint scope... Ok, here you can see the small slotted screw on both turrets between the #5 and #6. There is also a small slotted screw in the threads for the scope caps - beneath the 6 on the left, and the 3 on the right. There is another on each turret...

Re: Rezeroing target knobs on Centerpoint scope... Yea I was afraid you might say that... Standby You realize that I am working off a dinosaur of a laptop my son gave me when he went to Afghanistan the first time back in 2005

Help, Top Predator? Anybody who has a Centerpoint scope? My owners manual says, "The windage and elevation adjustment knobs have a unique, resetting screw design. A hex wrench is provided with the scope for adjustment". Well, ok the wrench is provided... but there is no spot on the knobs...

Re: New Marlin XT-22R 5 shot group at 110 yds with CCI Subsonics: Holy Crap... it worked ! Now to figure out how to make it bigger...

Re: New Marlin XT-22R Thanks TP - That should help. I picked up a 4-16X Centerpoint and yesterday played around with it briefly after shooting my issued 308. The best group I shot with CCI Subsonics was 1 1/4" at 110 yds. This was prone w/ rear bag. My other two groups were in the 2"+...

Re: New Marlin XT-22R Ok let's see if this works... http://www.flickr.com/photos/76731002@N07/7034503767/ This is probably the best grouping - shot with CCI subsonics (the two shots on the right side are from a different group) I need to figure out how to embed a photo, I'm not doing...

Re: New Marlin XT-22R I can't get a photo to show up in my post. I tried following the directions in the FAQs but no joy... I'm sure I screwed it up, because I wouldn't know a URL from a Yeti - but I inserted what the alleged link to my photo is between [image] and [image] and it just shows...

Ok so I chumped out and went the cheap route instead of picking up the heavy barreled 10/22 or the CZ. I bought a Marlin XT-22R over the Savage Mark IIF because I like the slightly thicker barrel profile (at least it looks that way to me, I haven't mic'd them) and I kind of wanted to see if...

Re: 10-22 Light Varmint or CZ 455 American? I had a 10/22 and played around with modifying it <span style="font-style: italic">a little</span>.. wasn't happy either, but it had a regular barrel then a Butler Creek carbon fiber barrel (I know, not exactly "quality" stuff). It shot ok but not...

I have been looking for a rimfire 22 so I can join in the Rimfire matches here on the 'hide. I have been looking at Savages, but finding a heavy barreled model is just about impossible these days. My local shop has a Ruger 10-22 Light Varmint, and a CZ 455 American in stock. I had originally...

Re: Reactive Rimfire Target Ideas? Well, this isn't nearly as exciting as some of the ideas above, but my kids loved it. When they were that age, every Happy Meal or Kids Meal toy became a target. They just cracked up when they sent little arms and legs flying all over the range. They...
