.22 None Believers

I know Rez but it would save cutting the little bugger up ! For the stew pot lol

[Rez 4,957]

Ha. Shredded.

[tomburras 2,721]

I never realised there was a problem with a .22

[Rez 4,957]

There isn't.

 

It's the ease of killing that favours 177. Aim dead on from 8 to 45 yards as you'll know.

I'm not going to lie and say I have a clue what's gone on I. This convo haha! Some good shooting vm!! What's the plans with the anti tamper being removed?? Just tuning for efficiency or something planned??

What do you zero at??

And dr bob strides in and ruffles some feathers... Again.

 

Get your hunting pics on the forum man. Let's see what ya got can be 22 or 177... Heavy or light

 

That's unfair and inaccurate. People have mild pops, and I pop back - I'm just better at it and you think I'm the one starting things? - Sorry that's just inaccurate. Anyway, nuff said.

 

Hunting pics? Have you heard of photoshop? hahaha. Proves nothing.

I've never understood people who take pictures of dead animals. I've been shooting on and off for 30 years my friend, never done it once. I'm not preaching to others, if you want to do it, then fine, not judging, but not for me and never will be. Each to their own.

As Rez said, there is no problem with a .22. People have been using .22s for decades to hunt vermin.

If you understand your .22, have done your practice and research on pellets, zerored to the right distance, have worked out your small hold overs and unders from that, then I'd say 15 - 45yds is true for .22 as an 'optimal' range. While the trajectory is certainly more curved for .22, people interpret this as being 'too curved' - not at all. In real terms its often flatter than people think. People confuse a relative difference (.177 is flatter than .22) with an absolute difference, (.177 is completely flat, .22 is completely curved). The latter is not accurate.
