Well I got the marbles front and rear sights on her earlier this year, but have not had a chance to shoot her with them yet. With the old sights she was shooting a dimed size group at 25 yards with Remmy or Winchester shorts. And about a quarter sized group with thunderbolts. It absolutely hates Stingers or Velocitors. Thinking about trying some subsonics with it and see how it does. The barrel is pitted badly on the outside, but the bore is beautiful, and with the old sights she shot consistantly to the left. About an inch to the left at 25 yards, and about 2 1/2 inches left at 50 yards. We will see how the new sights do as I am about to start 22 plinkin again.

Anybody got any good ammo suggestions for this old gun? Doesn't appear she likes the faster stuff at all, and I don't know much of what to look for in the slower stuff.

Give the Rem Sub-Sonics a try. They seem to shoot pretty good in most of my .22`s. Good old squirrel gun, but it should shoot alittle better than your getting. It should even dime size group you shot with ease. Those gun were all shooters.

I gotta tell ya Catfish I LOVE this old 22. It don't bother me at all that she's a single shot, and that durn 27 inch barrel is like looking down route 66 to aim with you just can't miss with her.

Thanks for the advice I will try to find me a few boxes of em.

My own stevens like standard vel remington peters ammo.

Not a 67 but long barrel single shot.
