Quick trip to the 300yd range.

I was shooting my Savage B Mag .17 caliber 20gr. Winchester and Hornady ammo.(I forgot my Federal and that has proven to be the best in my rifle)
I got one round in the 9 ring and two others were pushed right 4" and dropped about 2". We do not have wind indicators down range so I thought that was expected performance, variable wind speeds.
On the pistol range I found in my .22lr handgun, Browning Challenger, Aquilla is by far the tightest group, Remington was next and Browning ammo was last, very open. All were high velocity and 40gr. shooting from a sand bag. You should try Aquilla in your handgun. I am now going to try it in my rifle and see if it continues to perform. Aquilla is roughly $6 more per brick than the others. BTW, Aquila advertises they are the largest producer of rimfire ammo in the World.
P.S. Our Club is getting remote scoring system for the 300yd range which will really be nice. Suppose to be $20,000. We open our ranges to the Army, local LEO and area sniper teams. The snipers will be here today and tomorrow qualifing. I like to watch those guys shoot.
