NRL22 match tomorrow

[Coonan357]

Going to try my hand at my first NRL22 match tomorrow at the 41 Lead Farm in Lubbock.
Using a barely sighted-in fifty-one year old 10/22 (inherited when my older brother passed) with a (probably) equally as old 4x Tasco.
Apparently I don't want to take advantage of the regular shooters LOL. Should be fun.

Good luck. Show us some pictures and let us know how fun it is.

You’re going to have a blast! Hope you’ve been practicing your weak side shooting for this months COF.

I had not practiced any positions. Hell, I only zeroed the rifle at 50 yards this morning and was hoping that I could make a good guess at a 100 yard holdover.
I really did better than I expected, although my score is maybe 160. Scores haven't been posted yet.
Shooting support-side (weak-hand to me) proved to be not so fun. A bipod, or even a bag would have been beneficial, LOL.
So now I'm looking at either a Ruger Precision rimfire, or a CZ 457 American if I can find one.
No good pictures to post. It was a fun day. The weather was quite nice, although I did come away with a bit of a sunburn.
Next month's informal match is supposed to be in Amarillo at somone's house (Ranch). Apparently he has a fourteen hundred yard range. Sounds like it might be a good place to shoot.

Edit: turns out my score was 155, good enough for 10th place out of 17 shooters. High score of the match was 309.

Nice work! CZ all the way if you upgrade based on everything I’ve read.

I'd go CZ too, there is a post from TODD&JOYCE about a new rim fire .22 for precision.
He went withthe CZ in the end.
