100 Yard .22LR Challenge

Last year, when I posted here: https://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/threads/100-yard-22lr-challenge.2297200/post-20350190, I was awaiting Cataract surgery and was completely blind in my right eye. In October and November, I got in for the surgery, so these are my first attempts since. There have also been a few upgrades to the rifle as well, the most significant being a new take off CZUB 20" varmint barrel with a CZ compensator. Other odds and ends include an upgraded (but still amazon) bipod; a straight pistol grip; a Glade's tactical bolt handle and knob. I also shot three targets to compare Tac-22, Norma Jakt Match and Eley Contact.

This was shot at Milverton Rod and Gun; surprisingly warm yesterday at 16 degrees c, wind was from right to left, but minimal at 0 to maybe 5 km. Sunny but not direct sunlight.

Below is a picture of the rifle taken today and the first target: IMG_1560.jpgIMG_1553.jpg

First target was Tac-22.
Maximum spread was as follows
  1. 1.829
  2. 1.550
  3. 1.985 (Largest)
Average is 1.788"

Targets for 2nd and 3rd follow.

Second target...

Second target shot was with Eley Contact. It was initially shooting an inch huger than the previous ammo. I think it might be a bit hot for my old CZ LOL.
  1. 1.795
  2. 2.097
  3. 2.939
Average: 2.277"
 
Finally went to Staples and had them print me off 200 targets for just over $70. Went to the Brockville district fish and game club on Saturday Apr26 th to test centerfire loads and try this challenge. It was raining with gusty wind from the north east from 2-12km.. no flags used cuz I hate getting wet!! Temp was 12*
Vudoo 360
Atlas bipod
Suede rear bag
Lapua Super Long Range
Zeiss LRP 4-25x50
Range is 100yards
Groups are as follows
Top Right 1.9450”-0.2160= 1.7290
Bottom R 1.6220”-0.2160= 1.4060
Bottom L. 1.2910”-0.2160= 1.0750
Average 1.4033”
Just for curiosity I removed the two worst rounds from the three groups and the average was reduced considerably down to 0.725” with the best group at 0.537” Moral of the story? Get wet and put up flags. Haha

I have seen these calculations for score but I don't have time for the long calculation.
Count the number of shots (10), add the minus's and subtract that from 100.
Same for the X's. Count the shots outside the X-ring and subtract from 10 unless the x's are easier to count.
The long calculation is a waste of time when you have 40-50 targets to score.
