.22 Ammo testing at 100 meters (all five shot). For some reason my .22 doesnt like the Tenex.

This shot off a standard Cz 452 fitted with a suppressor, Harris bipod, rear bag and an el cheapo Braska scope.

Some cross wind... didnt measure it.

Based in europe.

Hunting is allowed and popular in some parts. Cant tell you more, since I dont hunt.
Not on any ethical grounds, I do buy game from those that do hunt. I just havent gotten the inclination to do it any more.

there are also several outfits in the UK, Germany, Hungary etc... which can arrainge for hunts and will take care of everything. Same for parts of africa..

Same model .22 LR, at 30 yards with open Iron sights, freehand, with Geko, Germany ammo, 40 grains SP.

I am not too sure about a hunting model .22 LR at 100 m, the groups would open for sure with Iron sights, it needs a competition grade .22 LR rifle and extremely good match grade sights to shoot a .22 LR at 100 m. Most events for .22 LR are held at 50 m am I right ?

Again problems with posting pics here. View here by clicking this link.

Shadid,

Cant see the pics.
A lot of do shoot the .22 out to even 200 meters. Especially with velocitor or stinger ammo.

You just need to understand the ballistics and be able to read wind. We do use ballistic calculators like On Target and Quick Target etc to ensure we are on paper.

It is great training especially on reading wind. Of course none of us use open sights. Bad eyesight to begin with.

A number of competitions are held at 50 meters or less. At least with open sights. I have heard of some shilloutte competion out to 75 yards.

But since the group I shoot with generally is not encumbered by these rules... we pretty much shoot how we like. :)

CCI : 3.4 Euros/50
CCI Subsonic: 4.5/50
Velocitator: 6/50
Midas M: 7.5/50
Midas L: 4.5/50
RWS: 5/50
Tenex: 14/50
Shillouette: 8/50
Eley Club: 4.5/50

As far as .22 LR goes. It gets cheaper if you're buying 500 or 5000 at a time.

12 GA: 00 Buck 8/10
12 GA: #4 8/25
8x60S: 50/20
.260 R: 45/20
.300 WM 25-75/20
.222: 20/20
.222 RM: 25/20

Most rifle loads I can do for well under 1 euro per shot.
