.22lr Accuracy at 100 Yards

Alas.

Not one but three Unertl scopes. Wow.

Wow, very impressive.

I've only dabbled a little with .22LR out to 50 yards as I don't have a scope. How much does a .22 actually drop at 100 yds and 200 yards?

That depends on which .22 cartridge you are talking about. A Aguila Colibri .22 LR is going to be lucky to make it 100 yards. But a hyper velocity Aguila Super Maximum round is barely going to drop at all at 100 yards. The middle of the road CCI SV round will drop around a foot or so at 200 yards. It drops maybe 3"-4" at 100 yards. That's just guessing. Barrel length matters as does rifle design. Semi-autos don't shoot quite as far because some of the power is used to cycle the action.

Thx Pete, I love my external adjust scopes

Just looked through some of my sillouete doping cards. Standard HV 40gr 1240fps. Sighted at 50, drops 6"@100, 43"@200. Sighted at 100 drops 32"@200. Unless I shim my scope I run out of up adjustment at 240yds.

Drop

When using Federal ultramatch .22s from my Anschutz, the come up from 50 yards to 100 yards is 38 clicks. Iirc the clicks are 5mm per at 100 meters (they are 2.5mm at 50 meters and .5mm at 10 meters).
