Scope for .22

[M.T. Pockets]

It got above zero yesterday, so I took my boy to my range and sighted it in. I was impressed with how responsive the Nikon was, point of impact moved just like it was supposed to when I adjusted the elevation & windage.

Once adjusted, we shot some 10 shot groups from the bench at 50 yards using bulk Remington ammunition. The groups were 7 or 8 shots in a cluster touching each other, with 2 or 3 shots within a 1/2". I think some trigger work would help a bit.

I know it's not a match gun, but for what we have in mind it's great. I'm thinking of moving the zero out to 75 yards if it doesn't impact the mid-range trajectory too much. Nice thing about .22's, you can shoot, shoot and shoot some more for a couple bucks.
