The reasons why I am not using R50 is that the accuracy at 200m wasn't as good as the Norma, SK Match and Lapua Polar Biathlon. Of course in your rifle you might get different results....

@Gillie what kind of accuracy are you getting at 200m? I know wind will play a huge factor, but what is the best groups you can reliably shoot?
Whilst my 22 is good under 100m once I get out to 150-200m it's basically shooting 200mm groups.
