First outing for the Ruger 10/22 LVT

[rickyk280]

I own several accurate 22 squirrel rifles, bought this on a whim last fall did a trigger job on it, little bedding around the back of the action, shot it and was very impressed. Took it this morning and I am more impressed with the accuracy of the LVT.

Tell them squirrels to take 2 Tylenol for their headaches. Great shooting brother

What was the longest shot?

Fantastic! What ammo using? Any feeding/ejecting issues?

Damn good shooting!

SK High Velocity Match, They don't come in hollow points, so I use a Neil B. Waltz die to make them hollow points. Rifle feeds great, ejects great, very impressed.

Head shots at that distance. I'd say you've got her dialed in brother. Very cool.

What scope? Looks like a vortex?
Great shooting!

Nice rifle, when I first got my 10/22T I was disappointed at the shotgun accuracy, I found the action screws were loose, corrected and will drive tacks, I'm sure there is a poundage but I just make sure they are snug

I had to look that die set up. I had not seen that version. I like it. I've got one that doesn't use a press, but a hammer instead to make the HP in the projectile. I like what I see about this one. Good shooting on the tree rats.

Dang you must have some nice hunting area. I'm lucky if I see more than 3 or 4 in a day.

Nice haul, always nice when you do a little work and end up with a good shooter

 

[tnanh]
