I went to my local indoor range to put a couple hundred rounds through the Ruger Mk III govt target.
I brought along a box of Winchester 222-count .22 LR hp’s, and bought an overpriced box of Armscor at the range just to try them out.
One fail to load with the Win out of about 150 fired. One fail to eject with Armscor out of the 50 shot.
Winchester’s shot point-of-aim, Armscor were a tad quieter and hit regularly just bit lower on the targets.
I was shooting at a multi-target rim fire “bullseye “ sheet with 20 5” squares arranged 4 to a row. The individual targets on the sheet had what look like 1” black bullseye centers that looked like pinpricks when I sent it out to 20 yards, so I pulled it in and fired them at 10. I booted a few flyers due to anticipation, but a few other targets kept all 10 in the black.
Man, I had a tough time keeping focus on the undercut front sight (black). Everything quickly started
Blurring up and going fuzzy, causing me to have to take my eyes away from the sights and then refocus. I wear glasses for distance, and this was the first time I had such a hard time keeping the front in focus.
I seriously pray this is not a sign that my peepers are deteriorating rapidly ! It’s been a month since I last shot and my vision was worse than the last trip.
I will be making an appt with the eye doctor soon to see where my Rx is now. Does anyone have any suggestions about sight alteration (coloring orange, etc) and whether it helps on these guns?
Thanks!
