40X Eley Match Lot Test // How To Transform Your 22LR Into a Precision Beast By Lot Testing

[@johndees967]

Bud!!!.... holy CRAP that is a freaking amazing group at 150!!!!! Thanks for all your reporting and testing. Huge fan. Although.. my Anschutz' s SUC .. big time. I dont even get that at 50m!!!!! At least it shows me what a 22 in proficient hands are capable of!!! GREEN with envy for both your rifle and skillset!... It encourages me to keep on trying and testing. Keep on posting.. you are inspiring us all to get to your level. That group though is simply ridiculous!!!! lol

[@johnstewart2011]

That was very informative. I’ve seen many references to lot testing, but never a demonstration of how it can/should be done, so thanks.

[@englishrifleman6556]

Best 22LR content on here

[@walterkucharski4790]

You guys have it good with testing centers and lot purchasing. I don't know of any suppliers in Canada who offer this.

[@JeffP-z6y]

The trusty ole Army issue Gerber I freakin broke mine I loved that thing the knife stayed sharp forever can’t count how many cans I opened in Afghanistan with it lol man I’d love to get my paws on one of those 40x’s things are sweet

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

I've had that gerber kicking around for ever it seems. Great little tool

[@justinmcbee8881]

Another great Video Josh. Love my MCR 40X.

[@kevinhart313]

Awesome stuff. Greatly appreciate your efforts and work. Your channel #1 in my book. Thanks

[@charlescory3030]

Very impressive grouping at 150 yards Josh.

[@johnpelfrey2041]

Great job Phil!

[@charlescory3030]

Was wondering, after you fouled the barrel on that Krieger and it's cooled down some, how far off is your point of aim with the cold bore shot. Great Video also!!!!!

[@FieroGTXX]

So YOUR VIDS are the reason whidden is selling out like hotcakes! LOL Great vid, "lots" of effort, "a lot" of good data, and a whole "lot" of fun to watch. In this "case", you've got me convinced. Looks like im road tripping to Nashville. Thanks"alot" Josh. (ok im done)

[@crossedrifles6005]

Great video and great content, I’ve only gotten into this type of shooting in the last few months and your content has been invaluable. I’m going to give this lot testing thing a shot and your video got me wondering some things. I wonder how those slightly faster rounds might do in a semi? With all your testing do KIDD barrels generally run it okay? (That’ll leave the slightly slower rounds for you bolt guys. 😂)

[@Anthony-w2b]

Great Video brother. I wish we had Gun shops here in Australia that did lot test Boxes. It's getting better now but going back a couple of years it was near impossible to scratch up anything but CCI SV or even worse Winchester.

[@Grumpyseabee22]

Great content Josh! Thanks for the tips!

[@ron8566]

I’ve been doing a lot of lot testing, sans the chronograph. I’ve been mainly testing Eley Tenex and some Eley Match, although I’m having lots of success with SK Rifle Match. One thing I do to boil down to a finalist is make sure the results are repeatable on a different day. One challenge I have is that once I find a great lot#, many times I cannot get any more of that lot #. Nonetheless, many thanks for sharing your technique.

[@mmgee]

Despite the cold temps that barrel is looking very good 👍

[@slevrets1]

You would make this after I did my test 😂. Also get with your friends and you can share lots for testing to save money

[@robertsimpson1640]

best videos out there, thanks.

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

Thanks brother

[@paulrussillo9168]

Great content! Thanks for all the work you put in. I just purchased a Muller Works barrel for my CZ457 from Whidden, in part because you turned me on to the company.

[@PATAGONIAAIRGUNSCHILE]

Wow this amazing result 150yd!!!

[@patmcdermott8547]

Thanks for another informative video - I feel like I learn more from your content than any other rimfire shooting 'tuber, hands down!

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

Thanks brother. Glad to hear it

[@briansupermag3918]

Got my Whidden test brick a week ago . Looking forward to see how we make out with my RimX that DPG built for me. Love the channel and the fun you put into it. And it shows.

[@FishOn1]

Excellent info!

[@joea4998]

Great video looks like I have some work to do on my set up. I will give that regiment a try. Thanks

[@vanessarogers6051]

What model kuiu jacket is that thing looks warm

[@sgtlt]

Very informative video, is that a Gray Opps baracade stop

[@richardmattix5322]

You are an excellent sales person for those companys you mention. I know of several people that have bought Lilja barrels because you mention them and I have bought 4 or 5 for that same reason. Thank you for your effirts Josh

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

@@richardmattix5322 haha I'm not sure I love the phrase "salesperson" but I appreciate ya watching and commenting lol

[@joed3264]

I test Lots in a 100 yd indoor range. No wind. There is a range in Hoover, AL that has a 50 yd indoor range - Hoover Tactical.

[@fieldpro5041]

great video and shooting brother. that gun hammers for sure

[@pevelyhomeowner327]

Great video. Thank you.🙏 If that chrono died would you buy it again or switch to Garmin.

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

@@pevelyhomeowner327 probably the Garmin

[@fredmertz2175]

Lot 04157 shot well in my CZ 457 on the test lots. Ordered a brick to verify, but…weather!

[@MarcHPhelps]

Those guys ( and ladies) at Whidden Gunworks are great folks!

[@johnbarnes-o5z]

Learned a bunch from this video. Thanks

[@phillipchapman285]

Great Video

[@joephillips2479]

Good stuff... Well done...

[@bassfever4234]

great video thanks

[@SpeedyCotton55]

I have watched quite a few of your videos and really appreciate the education, thank you. It almost seems you could have just done all the shooting at 150 yard and saved some time and potentially ammo?

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

@@SpeedyCotton55 I like to see both so I know exactly what I'm getting

[@SpeedyCotton55]

@@PursuitofAccuracy That makes sense, thank you sir.

[@llazarinni]

[@jimcastillo8950]

Hello, what barrel crown do you prefer on your barrels? 11 degree target or recess crown? thank you.....

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

@@jimcastillo8950 I'm really not particular

[@BobbyOfEarth]

Eley production control kinda hits you right in face. Unfortunately, CA. gun laws add another layer of complexity when sourcing ammo outside the state. I'll have to check see if Eley has any outlets here, I suppose..

[@streettuff2623]

Question: Would you be likely to get different results on a 90* day?

[@chadwalton2128]

When lot testing, after how many rounds do you clean the barrel? And also I noticed you don't clean the barrel in-between lots. Thanks in advance

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

@@chadwalton2128 I just start with a clean and fouled barrel. I don't clean til I hit 400 or 500 rounds so no cleaning while testing for me

[@chadwalton2128]

@PursuitofAccuracy thank you for the reply

[@MMBRM]

That last 150 yard group was pretty incredible. Overall looks like the gun isn't too picky. Bolt close seemed a bit tight is it headspaced really close?

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

The 40x has 90 degree lugs and with a little jam on the bullet it clunks it up a hair. We plan to bevel the lugs like most modern rimfires just haven't got there yet

[@MMBRM]

@@PursuitofAccuracy Jam on the bullet eh? Sounds interesting. I'll be curious to see the specs when you can release them.

[@Cristopher1976]

What other rifles did you test this ammo in? Did they like the same 3 lots?

[@tjfishing2714]

Don't forget to add a like 👍 😊

[@chriscarlisle499]

Could I get a recommendation on compensators for a .22 rifle. Worth it or not and what kind blast forward device or more traditional style? Was also considering suppressing it as well and in the long run that will happen Thanks in advance

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

As far as 22 rifles I don't think there is any benefit to adding a comp or brake to one. Suppressing them makes it very quiet so that's a bit of fun factor

[@chriscarlisle499]

@ hey surprisingly enough I would say yea in a little way it seamed to help when I took it out yesterday. Like you mentioned not like it’s a huge difference but I would honestly like to have one with and one without to try again. Either way didn’t hurt trying hahaha

[@robertsimpson1640]

judging wind is much more of a thing than I thought. entered a non formal .22 LR competition. where we shoot it is NOT uncommon to shoot in 15-25 MPH winds. makes things difficult.

[@Tantrum791]

Sounds like a smooth action!

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

She's pretty slick

[@paulsprague7754]

Great vid.thanks for what you do.i just built a vudoo benchrest.havent shot it yet.to cold where I live in upstate NY.

ANY recommendations for a Tikka t1x Build?

@@travisbrueckner4457 not much in the way of Tikka stuff. But yeah I'd go jard trigger in whatever chassis strikes your fancy

[@ironduke2660]

nice!

[@Leshil]

Lapua nearly non-existent right now.

[@22guru]

Sweet!

[@stevelesleyp5141]

Enjoyed the video but it’s a little bit of a mixed message as about a month ago you posted a video titled practical accuracy. All kidding aside if you’re competing at a high level you need every edge you can get. After all your channel is The Pursuit of Accuracy.

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

Yeah I agree. If your wanting to win at a high level then it's not even a question. But for most guys just wanting to hit targets, build skills, and have fun this is not necessary.

[@recklessjunkie]

Is it repeatable next day same weather ?

[@PursuitofAccuracy]

@@recklessjunkie it was repeatable for the small amount I had. I had 2 boxes of each lot to test across two rifles. So honestly more importantly to me was would it also shoot well in other rifles.

[@recklessjunkie]

@ thats awesome 😎
