My 22 shoots 1/2" groups at 50 yards/meters all day! Really? Prove it!

Got er done yesterday. Re read the rules after my first post. Sorry about that.

Caldwell Rock, Protector

Glad you were able to do it. Nice shooting. I added you to the successful list.
Anschutz 1710 D HB, with a Leupold FX-3, 25 X 40mm scope, from Caldwell rests front and rear. Eley Tenex. Group sizes, using .210 as my constant: .365, .297, .286, .257, .205. Average group size, .282. ETA: if, as suggested below, I use .220 as a constant, the group sizes are: .355, .287, .276, .247, and .195, for an average group size of .272.

Great grouping minimouse! However, should you have subtracted .220 and not .210?Anschutz 1710 D HB, with a Leupold FX-3, 25 X 40mm scope, from Caldwell rests front and rear. Eley Tenex. Group sizes, using .210 as my constant: .365, .297, .286, .257, .205. Average group size, .282.

^^^ Yep.
I got this Anschutz 1411 about ten days ago. It came with its original 1413 stock, but I prefer the stock seen here for shooting from the bench. (Thanks, Gilbert)
It shoots very nicely.
Shot left to right: 0.388, 0.378, 0.273, 0.245, 0.276 average size 0.312
The scope is a Sightron SIII 8-32 and the ammo is Center-X.
As an observation, I shot a number of targets like the one above with this rifle with five sub-half-inch groups, some with SK Standard Plus ammo. But a few of my targets still have the occasional errant shot(s). Some folks have suggested that, at least for themselves, the only time they have errant shots is when their equipment, rifle, or ammo is to blame. When I don't shoot nice groups, I continue to have only myself to blame.

Finally did the challenge ! 
I've failed to do it several times in the past by only one or two flyers out of 25 rounds.
Strangely I had no luck today with Lapua Center-X ammo which is, most of the time, his favorite ammunition.

Thanks savagecanuck for the kind words !
The Pro-Varmint feels good, better than the factory stock.
Next step is to do it with my Anschutz 64 MS-R but maybe this will have to wait next year.
I haven't tried the Annie because I'm still not sure what scope rings I will buy/use.
You need high 11mm rings as the Annie is flat with no barrel taper. 1" are easy to find 30mm tough to find in Canada. I have bkl 30mm.
Finally! After trying all summer I have finally shot a submittable group! Although this was the 5 attempt after i had switched over to the boyds pro varmint stock
