I like that octagon barrel. Looks like whoever had it since 1942 took good care of it.

A good little shooter too lads, I shot the tin hat target at 15m and my pal Jim pulled it in even tighter with his second group on the bullseye target.
I took the rifle off him after that one. :lol:

I did try some CCI sub-sonics that were in my range bag but it prefered the Remington Target ammo. Just need a bit longer range to try it out on now.

I am really pleased with this one. :D

Nice job Joe I had a couple slots saved for a couple more .22s but the plod stole them off me when I renewed. Only way I can get any thing new is if I sell some thing and I dont have any thing I want to let go. Hmmmm
