Id like to start a topic on long distance rimfire shooting basically trying to get the feel for which caliber is the best suited for this application.
My claim to fame was shooting a stock Savage MkII BVTS with a Bushnell elite 10x and target turets witha bubble level.
Best I could do was shooting 12ga shells at 175meters 8-9 out of 10 shots and clays lined up at 250m consistantly. Obviously in ideal weather conditions. Took it out to 300m meters as well, but scope bottommed out and wasnt really reliable at that distance.
Anyone tried this with a 22MAG or 17 HMR considering they're supersonic?
