    I have get down to Taupo to sight in my marlin model 60 now that it is wearing a cheap scope (centerpoint AR22 3-9X32) till I can afford the rimfire scope that I really want. Will be sighting in at 50 meters then move it out to 100 so it is set up for the forum bunny shoot that is coming up in rotovegas.

    The old way was to sight in at 75 yards with super sonic then the drop at a 100 yards was about 4". Now, if you're a young fella you'll have to Google "yards" and "inches" to find out what they mean and then work it out from there.

    Well you will be pleased to know that it is Remington but the expensive stuff not the cheap stuff, my ruger use to like it but now I traded it for a cz so I
    will see how it goes I would prefer cheaper ammo though 15bux a box isn't helping....
