:roll: Have not done a range report in a long time, soo..here is today.
At the cabin and pulled out the .22 SGC to try out again. Was at only about 30 yards, off-hand, but expected way better. Problem was me, not the rifle. Bees were buzzing my head and sweat rolling down my face from humidity because of an incoming storm.
Was about 85 degrees with almost the same humidity. Stopped just in time, as it poured rain. Only managed to get off 20 rounds.

That’s not bad considering the heat and humidity.

When the elements are against you you can’t expect to shoot the best even though might have been up to it.

I'd be missing the paper if bees were in the mix. And they get a little crazy like the rest of us in the heat. Nice group for off hand with bees and heat!

Thanks guys! Hope to try again within the next couple of days, however, this region is expected to get a LOT of rain in the next few days because of the storm moving in.

Not bad at all Mark, especially under those conditions.
Not sure I could've done any better myself.
Glad ya got a little range time in.

I'd be okay with that offhand.
