Evening Sir Henry,
Haven't seen Norma Tac22, but will look on line for some. Thanks for the heads up, and I'm enjoying the Henry's longer barrel,= weight. feels good.
Thanks again

Re: Range Report: a clean barrel
I use SK Standard Plus in all my .22's, and it works well. It's not the cheapest, but I have found it to be by far the best compromise between the cheap but unpredictable ammo and the predictable but silly expensive ammo.barbinc wrote: I've been long range center fire shooter for some time but I realize I'm stuck with finding the right ammo since I can't reload. Any thought or help you can offer will be greatly appreciated!
Then again, we don't have the same choice of ammunition that you have.

SK is good stuff. So is the German made Wolf and RWS.

Re: Range Report: a clean barrel
Tried some CCI SV.....Aguila SV and some federal automatch......I'll get 2-3 touching then next 2 touching 3/8" out of group...Scope not loose nor rings....Is it maybe the cover is not as stable so that POI changes?

Re: Range Report: a clean barrel
That sounds like my shooting. For me it is because I haven't lined up aiming it the same way and is parallax.barbinc wrote:Tried some CCI SV.....Aguila SV and some federal automatch......I'll get 2-3 touching then next 2 touching 3/8" out of group...Scope not loose nor rings....Is it maybe the cover is not as stable so that POI changes?

Re: Range Report: a clean barrel
I didn't list distance ....25yards so 3/8" out of group is pretty bad.....read about cold affecting groups by making bullet lube harder or something to that affect....scope has AO down to 15 yards.......and I couldn't see well without the AO..so must be me. Next range time I'll sort out actual lead diameter? any other suggestions welcomed. Also I realize this is no BR gun but still like consistency.
Thanks
