vertical stringing 22 LR Ammo suggestions.

[JBD]

I was shooting last night at 300 Meters. Conditions were extremely calm. I was getting about 4 inch horizontal and about a foot and a half of vertical groups. Shooting PMC target. I am wondering if anyone has extensively chronied loads to find one with a low variation in velocity and willing to share.

Did a bit of searching looks like I might be looking for something that does not exist. Eagleye is showing about 150 FPS variation with eley which is expensive stuff.

I believe that would be the Lot number of the ammo, expensive ammo will get you in the 10 - 20fps spread range, typical fodder usually runs 50 to 75 fps spread.

150 would be terrible indeed.

A foot and a half is terrible. With moderately priced match ammo (5-6$/box range), you should have less than 8" of vertical stringing under calm conditions. Very good ammo will give you less than 5".

Yes, but how was the mirage?
