Garypco 3 Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 .22 rimfire round, 770fps, 29 grain. Your opinions please. if its the one i think it is its about 30ftlbs we used them a good few years ago on a caravan park shooting rabbits on the banking etc they did a reasonable job... specially in that enviroment a 40 grain would of been to much with a bigger richochet chance Quote Link to post

Fidgety 8 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 I do not know why the info is so limited on the website. I'd have thought with a "specialist" round such as this, they would have been keen to push the benefits. Quote Link to post

Deker 3,491 Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 will a 22l work in a 22lr gun Yep...longs, shorts, caps, shotshells and Uncle Tom Cobbly and all... Only problem tends to be loading with some as the size makes it difficult/impossible in a magazine! Quote Link to post
Fidgety 8 Posted February 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Initial (quick test) was disappointing. At 50m, winchester subs grouped within an inch. Zlang (expectedly) dropped by 3-4 inches, but were all over the place (within a six inch circle) Tried them at 25m, and they were much better, but still only within a 3 inch circle. Will have another go tomorrow off the bipod. Quote Link to post
