Ready for range day...

After a quick outing for 50 rounds on my new 22LR I am loving it.

In prepping for a night at Springvale shooting range and testing some ammo for what shoots best...

450 rounds should last me a night or two :D

I picked the rifle up Christmas Eve, I just wish the bastards at Springvale weren't closed for the holidays so I didn't have to wait a week to really send some rounds down range :lol:

I see you've got some Sellier & Bellot ammo there Lorgar.

Any chance you can let me know how it goes?

Those Winchester 42 max are supposed to be real good.

Hits harder down range like some of the faster cartridges while still having that sub-sonic stability.
