    Long Range .22 lr plinking with the Ruger Precision

    Got a new scope in for my RPR as I wanted to setup for some longer range stuff. The Vector Veyron 4-16x44 ffp, sheesh that's a great scope for the money!!!

    I set my zero at 100y and then moved back to the 200y bench, putting shots on paper I could see the impact through the scope easily at 16x zoom, it was just over half way down the reticle dots without changing the elevation turret.

    Set up a little steel gong and recorded a little video of me tapping on it, 10 out of 10 shots hit the 8" gong at 200y and as you can see there is a bit of a swirling tail wind going on. I left my phone down range and put another 10 shots on the gong from 200y and as you can see most of the shots looked like they grouped within about an inch!! Looking forward to shooting this with some decent target ammo and less wind! Might have to move back to the 300y bench too!
