SPL_Josh Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Woke up sunday and decided to get a scope for my Marlin 25MNSS (Ducks Unlimited Gun) it had been needing a scope for almost over a year. Went to Buckeye Outdoors and got a nice Simmons 6x22?-44 mil dot scope. Sighted the 22mag in and also shot the 597 22lr while i was at it. Here are the results. I will never use Winchester Wildcat 22LR ammo as it is JUNK, horribly inconsistent. Distance to Target -Roughly 50 yards http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20192048.jpg The 22's http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20202425.jpg My best attempt to see through the new scope http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20202600.jpg Remington 597 22LR @ 25 yards CCI Blazer ammo Had to sight it in because it was sighted in for around 75 yards. #1 too high/#2 too high/#3 getting closer/#4 sighted in http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20205400.jpg Remington 597 22LR @ 50 Yards Shitty Winchester Wildcat ammo& CCI Blazer Notice the shitty wildcat scatter http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20205436.jpg Remington 597 22LR @ 50 yards Just Shitty Wildcat ammo Group to the left was aiming dead center. Group towards center was 2" right hold http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20205503.jpg Marlin 22 Mag sight in http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20205530.jpg First Target after initial sight in http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20205559.jpg I attempted my first Krlon paint job on the 597. Turned out OK http://i448.photobucket.com/albums/qq206/rawlins1087/2010-06-20203143.jpg What i discoverd is both guns need trigger mods, pull is about 9-10 lbs. 2.5-3.5 would be ideal for me. Also i need more time to practice as I tend to shoot a little left. Now that i finally got a scope, will be working on my accuracy at 125 yards (front yard):bangbang: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjjxlr8 Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Awesome paint work! Nice job. I have good luck with the .22LR Remington Golden bullets. They are inexpensive and very consistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
