My Long-Range Rimfire Kid Trainer

[sscoyote]

Thought this'd be nice for kids and folks to shoot so it won't cost me much (single shot 22's shoot cheaply) when somebody wants to start shooting. It's a Keystone Arms Chimunk Hunter pistol. I put a 4-16x Centerpoint MD on it and it appears to track fairly well through my grid-style bore sighter. I noticed that i only had about 8 MOA of up adjustment though, so i cut out the end of an old casino card, and stuck it below the back of the base, and voila--30 more MOA--

Re: My Long-Range Rimfire Kid Trainer

yeah the wife told me I was dumb... I think it was an excuse to get a new gun...LOL but i never intended on putting a NF 5.5-22 on it i just happened to of bought one from a hide member and he made me a awsome deal on the 2nd one even though i didnt need it so for the time being its on her rifle. However i think she needs a much lighter trigger. That stock mp15-22 trigger is hella heavy for me let alone her.
