[u/Dream1nhell]

So after my recent post, i choose to start with a .22lr rifle for shooting range(100-300yards),it my first gun ever and i want to know guys if this setup it decent? My total budget is lil bit under 2k$ cad. Thanks you

( i have difficulty to choose the scope,too much specs to look)

I dont know ammo lol

Trust me, you don't want that ammo! Try CCI blazer

Blazer will shoot worse than than Aguila in a bolt gun. SV is pretty much always better accuracy, HV for reliable semi cycling only

My RPRR loves CCI Mini-Mags more than any of the fancy stuff I’ve tried and I tried a bunch. On a good day I can print 10-round dimes at 50yd all day long with it.

Interesting, guess it depends on the gun. Rimfire is weird like that

Totally! Yeah I was honestly pretty surprised by the result. Surprised enough that I went back and repeated the experiment with whatever 2 or 3 Gucci ammo brands had given the best results and the mini-mags won the second time around too. Kept the order randomized with a few breaks so they all had a chance with a cold barrel and a warm barrel, and the results came out the same.

Sure was a shame having to spend a second afternoon putting all those rounds downrange, for science :)

Aguila was insanely dirty and bad in my gun

And stinky

Until the SV blows up the gun because they're s*** quality control.
