Went long with the 22 today.

. 22’s should at LEAST come with 20moa bases, just to get us back near optical center, nearly equivalent to a centerfire rifle with a flat base.

I put a 20MOA rail on the Bergara, if I had known what I know now, it would have been a 30MOA, but it gets out to 200 easily with the PST Gen II 5-25.

The Vudoo comes with a 30MOA rail, and it gets to 300 with no issues with both the PST Gen II 5-25x50 & the Tract 30MM LR 4-20x50.

Here, when he was 6, about to turn 7, my son was shooting 300yrds a rifle and scope which totaled under $400 (including the new stock, and knock off bipod) - a $50 scope, and rot-gut Winchester Wildcat ammo. 50MOA available in that Bushnell Trophy 3-9x40, with the old school, inexpensive elevation dials which require a coin for adjustment - he had Burris Signature Zee rings with 20moa shims front and back, totaling 40moa. Sure, the target is big, 12”x20”, but the wind was blowing to beat hell (check out his hair!), and the Win Wildcat ammo ain’t very impressive - and he was 6… The real bad news that day, he was holding at the left POST of his mil-dot reticle to make up for wind, and a +/-2mph wind bracket was wider than the target!

If we can do it, anyone can!

Here is my Savage MkII BTVLSS in a Rigid Alloy chassis. I am using a DIP Products 25 MOA rail with a Swampfox Optics Patriot 6-24 scope. I have enough elevation to dial in to 325 yards before I have to start using hold overs. I'm posting only to show what one can do with scopes and mounts. I still have together to a range that goes out past 100 yards to see what the rifle does at longer distances.

View attachment 1144673 View attachment 1144673i made this up years ago. 100 to 300 yd. It worked out to basically 7 clicks(1/4 min) per 10 yd. Would hit a 8" gong about 3 out of 10 @ 300 yd. Dosent look like much, but that was a lot of ammo. They were about 12$ for 525rd @ the time. I didnt actually test @280 yd, that was kinda pencil whipped in there.

Witchcraft! Witchcraft, I say!
