I was trying out some different ammo this morning and thought I'd share. Not that great but not too bad for a 70 year old.

Rifle is 70, I'm a little over a half a century. Yes,that's a Lyman Super Target Spot scope in 15X. I've been told to get some good match ammo so when I can I'll try some more kinds and post pics. Still experimenting with ammo but she seems to like the slower stuff so far.

Thats a nice looking setup you got there, I love classics like those, they just have character. let us know how the ammo tests go. i would guess that she would like the slower stuff like you said, the slow stuff always seems to be more consistent. Wolf MT/SK Standard Plus and CCI Standard Velocity shoot very well in most 22's, they might be a good place to start if your interested. good luck and nice shooting!

Nice looking stick
That scope looks scary... for reason im having visions of it on a high power rifle and someone scoping their eyeballs out with it

Actually, those scopes slide in their mounts. They go forward from the recoil though so really the chance of getting your eye dotted is less than a fixed scope. Even on that 52 which weighs about 10 lbs it will slide forward about 1/8" or so with each shot. The hard part for me is remembering to pull it back after each shot.
