Luckily, my buddies at the silhouette rimfire match warned me about rimfire ammo. Most of the time, I would come in around the top in lever action silhouette and they would tell me to try rimfire. What a rabbit hole! Less than a year later, I have a bunch of new knowledge and am at the top of this game but am still learning.....yeah, they guys beat me last match. My 10/22 has mostly kidd parts now, with a 2 stage trigger and CCI SV has been good for my needs. There is some Eley ammo on my wishlist to test out and I figured out that lots matter, even on CCI and the heat changed my POI in the last match and others, now that I think about it. For offhand shooting at 100 meters with peep sights, I don't know if it will be worth using match ammo, but it has been fun watching your videos and learning what can be done. A year ago.........I had no idea how much goes into rimfire shooting and thought it would be fun to do a match where I could use whatever 22 ammo I had, as long as I could figure out my sights which I knew were no good. Thanks for the videos.

I learned something at our .22 Sniper Match Saturday. I need to weigh my ammo. I had 4 misses out of 60 rounds fired. All were high over the targets. My Bergara shoots in the .2s at 50 yards. This Lot of SK Long Range is one of it's favorites. I weighed 4 boxes when I got home. There were 3-4 heavy bullets in each box. ALL ammo must be Lot tested even Tenex. Center-X was more consistent weight wise. My Bergara does not like Eley. My H&R 12 and Kimber 82G like Eley.
@XFBO3 жыл бұрын
I haven't started weighing them....yet. But I did buy one of those rim thickness gauges, not using the greatest dial gauge (HF) but even still I find variations in almost every box I measure and keep notes on my findings. Eley Match is amongst one of the best I've come across so far with variations measuring under .001, in fact I just purchased 2 bricks of their Benchrest Precision and the few boxes I measured came in at the same .001!!! The worst so far was Remington Thunderbolt, granted it's cheapo plinking ammo but I measured up to .006 total. Food for thought for those getting into the weighing their ammo game....lol

Acquired a Savage Precision in .22WMR. Running a Mueller fixed 40×56 Target Dot, UTG Flex Recon bipod, with a radial brake (just so I can retain sight picture). Would like to see ammo manufacturers produce competition grade ammo for this cartridge (.22WMR). On the verge of acquiring an ATS barrel tuner (permits brake installation post tuner) OR the new Eric Cortina "EC tuner V.2" (as of 31Aug2022). The ATS tuner screws directly onto 1/2 x 28 threads AND requires the muzzle cap to be reinstalled (or muzzle brake) whereas the EC model requires an adapter to attach the tuner. The NICE thing about the EC tuner is that NO TOOLS are required to make adjustments. A tuner, is a tuner, is a tuner..., they all balance/time barrel harmonics. IMHO, the one that minimizes the amount of time for adjustments and is repeatable..., well the EC V.2 is the obvious choice. But my .22WMR rifle jumps enough at the muzzle that I cannot view impact. Personally I'm probably going to go with Eric Cortina's V.2 model first and if sight picture retention isn't achievable then give the ATS model a go. When did we begin making shooting rimfires so complicated?

Thanks for a very informative video. I watched a few of your videos today and learned enough to make me subscribe to your channel, however, I have a few questions regarding lot numbers. I get the part about different lots producing different results in different guns. I just went to one of the websites you mention and they list 20+ different lot numbers for a given ammo type. On the extreme, are you suggesting people do a lot test on all available lots? If not, which lots do we choose? I realize this is somewhat a wise-ass question except really what do we do? After we select a reasonable number of lots and test them, we should know which lot produced the best results in our rifle. At this point, we order a bunch of ammo from the preferred lot. This is all well and good until we run out of ammo. Do we then start the testing process all over? I am not trying to be difficult, but I am trying to understand the logic of this. We can't test every lot of every type and brand of ammo, and yet wouldn't that produce the best results. I have been shooting for a while but these questions about lot numbers have been on my mind for some time. I guess my real question might be, how do you limit your selections to reasonable numbers? Thanks again. I look forward to watching more videos.
@PursuitofAccuracy3 жыл бұрын
Hi Hector. So once you initially lot test you would want to buy as much as you can afford. When you do run out look for lots around the same stated mv as the last lot....stated mv rarely matches your actual mv but that doesnt matter.....this will allow you to buy less lots in the future. In a perfect world we could buy enough to never need to test again

Or are there enough variables to where you have to lot test every few seasons?

All pretty much shot pretty well at 50yds (under 1/2" groupings) but no where near as well (tight) as my Bergara B14R. Out to 100 yds, my CZ's shine a bit better than the B14R with my 455 Mini Sniper being the #1 followed by my 20" MTR mounted in an KRG Bravo Chassis. As you may have read online, you're CZ will shoot well out of the box if you win the "CZ accuracy lottery". Before you buy, ask to see the paper test included in each box.

Group question here - What speed are you folks getting for Eley Match? I just lot tested 8 different boxes. Fully understanding that the velocity on the box is a suggestion, I found it much faster than expected. Out of an 18" Shaw barrel in my RPR, clocked from a bench with a LabRadar with a motion trigger at 100yd indoor range. Temp around 65 F. Across the 8 lots tested, Eley Match lots varied from 1118 - 1150 fps, all averaging XS of 20, SD of 7. Some lots were only marginally better, this is aggregate over 200+ shots. That's 50 - 80 fps faster than printed. Very consistent stuff, just much faster than other ammo tested. Some lots of Tenex I had came in at the same speeds (with SD around 3 - 5!), but thankfully it didn't shoot well in this rifle. Center X was 1079 fps, XS of 44, SD of 7 over 60 shots. Exactly as advertised. SK Flatnose Match was 1067 fps, XS of 36, SD of 11 over 100 shots. Also very close to published. Fun part is that all tested ammo had at least one lot number that worked well in this rifle, 1080 and 1130 being the two sweet spots. To note, these numbers are 30-50 fps faster than the factory barrel. Is Match or Tenex running this fast for any of you?

I have about a brick of Tenex (1061 FPS) that shoots pretty good in my CZ 457 / Lilja - about .8 MOA. I bought a couple of bricks of another lot rated at 1062 FPS expecting similar results. At 50 yards, 4 five-shot groups averaged 1.5 MOA (1.4 - 1.9). Shot two groups at 100 averaging .8 MOA (.7 & .9). The best 4 in each group averaged .4 MOA. I shot the original 1061 FPS lot and it was consistent at .9 MOA, 50 and 100 yards. Same rifle, same 1-piece rest, same shooter, same day. WTF?
@PursuitofAccuracy3 жыл бұрын
The lots are very different. Its why all the major ammo companies have test facilities for shooters willing to send in their rifle to test. Its always better to test in your environment from my experience.

Safety guy here: anyone notice the safety off, cocked indicator, and closed bolt as the rifle spins in random directions? Like spin the bottle with a potentially loaded chamber! - OK, likely a dry chamber, but worth noting the cocked indicator and safety off… right?
@PursuitofAccuracy2 жыл бұрын
Haha and no worries. Chamber definitely empty and my bolt is always closed. The safety was most likely off as the last thing I do is check chamber and dry fire to relieve spring tension before it goes back on the gun rack
