Standard small-bore silhouette distances. to put it in perspective, here's some pics next to the offhand targets. These swingers are the kids targets, which are the larger of the two pictured above. ones we shoot are 1/3rd smaller!

What do they like for ammo?
I have a CZ 453 Varmint and a 457 MTR Varmint. They both like Lapua Center X best. The 453 shoots Eley Tenex very well. The 457 MTR not at all well.
What does the 457 MTR Varmint like?
I shot my new 457 VPC today. I found the best Norma Tac 22 ever made.
50 yds?
Looks like a very efficient setup up you have there. I am new to rimfire shooting and benchrest equipment and I have never seen a rear rest like that before. Can you enlighten me? Also is this setup legal for Factory class?
Thanks,
Richard
I have tried a number of brands and levels ($) of 22lr ammo in my 452 and 457. they both seem to react with similar results. the 452 was purchased many years ago and is a varmint model-20" barrel. i purchased a spring kit and the trigger is around 1.5 pounds. the 457 is also a varmint model, however it was a 22mag and i purchased a 22lr barrel kit from cz. the only barrels available were match barrels ( i wanted to keep the gun "stock") for classification purposes. both guns have athlon argos 8-34 scopes. the 457 also has a spring kit. both have bipods.
testing is at 75 meters. i have tried cci standard vel target, wolf match target, rws rifle match, eley club, team, benchrest, and match. I just started shooting in a local match that ranges from 75 meters to 189 meters, with silhouette targets.
my limited experience indicates that both rifles shoot better (more consistently) with better ammo. i weigh all ammo on a jewelers scale ($20 on amazon) sort them in groups by +or - .010 grains. maybe i'm crazy but it seems to improve hit consistency. the higher quality ammo has less weight variation to start with, so sorting is easier, for example:
eley team weights-3.280-3.345 eley match 3.340-3.365 grains

It’s not a rest. It’s a Sinclair F Class bipod, very popular in ARA Factory Class.

It is a Jerry stiller rear adjustable rest.
I am familiar with the Sinclair bipod, as I have one of the early models without the vertical adjustment. It is the rear rest that I was asking about. A friend sent information on the Arnold rest and I believe that is what I see in your previous post? You do shoot in ARA Factory Class, correct? I wouldn't think the fancy Arnold rest would be legal in ARA Factory Class.
Thanks,
Richard
Oh. That is a Holeshot mechanical rear rest sold by Killough’s Shooting Sports. It is legal for Factory class. As far as the Arnold I don’t know. No one piece rests are legal.

As I posted, it is a Jerry Stiller product.
