    The military standard for a kill shot is it has to penetrate a 3/4 inch pine board, which would simulate a rib cage. Iraqveteran8888 was shooting through a 3/4 inch pine board at 400 yards with a 22lr...Don't underestimate that round..

      @@charisperissos1320 When I was a teenager we would take our .22 to a bank along our field and put a bucket out on the other end. Never measured how far but we couldn't see the bucket in the scope to shoot at it. We would aim at the top of a 80foot tree behind the bucket and a spotter would walk in the shots watching with binoculars. After hitting it the first time it was surprisingly easy to keep hitting the bucket. even at that distance it would go through both sides.

      I like the 10/22 carbine so well that I own two of them. One the standard carbine in stainless, ( for hunting and plinking with iron sights) plus one the standard carbine, (blued ) dressed in an aftermarket AR style stock, topped with a red dot. I bought my first 10/22, back when Reagan was in office, sold it off when I was hard up for cash, and regretted that decision for years.
      Times got better, my bank account more flush, so I bought the two that I have, today. Great little rifles. Kept clean, they are both accurate and reliable. I tend to run CCI ammo through them and have had better results than with other brands of LR, although they handle Remington Thunderbolt ammo, pretty well, too.

    I spent most of my childhood, during the 50's and 60's in the north-west of Western Australia and, by far, the most common rifle I saw back then was the humble old .22. A lot of the bright young things of today would scoff at me whenever I told them of seeing people bring down a 6 feet tall, 180 pound Western Red kangaroo with a .22.
    In a lot of cases it was done purely out of the necessity to be a bloody good shot, because a lot of people augmented their income by shooting 'roos for the bounty that was on them back then. Added to that was the fact that the most common large calibre rifles available were old ex-army Lee-Enfield .303's and even back then, .303 ammunition was pretty expensive. So, the little Aussie battler, out there in the bush, had to make do with whatever was at hand, which also meant shooting over iron sights, mostly at night, with a spotlight!
    Far too many people are far too eager to dismiss a .22 as inadequate for certain types of game and I have and always will, dispute that notion. In the right hands, a .22 will get the job done.

    I always enjoy your honest videos! When I was a wee tad back in the early 70s my dad gave me my first gun, a bolt action single shot .22. I think it was a Remington but I'm not positive. Later in the 70s I aquired a Browning lever action .22. Once we were out shooting and my friend was shooting it and the action blew out the side. We were shooting stingers, a very hot .22 round back then. We sent the rifle back to Browning and they repaired it free of charge and sent it back, and said don't shoot stingers in it. A short time later my brother was shooting it with CCI Blazers, and the action blew out the side again! Again I sent it back to Browning and they fixed it and sent it back free of charge. As soon as I received it me and my dad went to the gun shop and traded it for a Ruger 10/22. I asked the guy behind the counter what kind of deal can we make? He said, we can't trade straight across, we have to make a profit. My dad said, how about $10? My dad said, SOLD!, threw the man a $10 and told me, get yer new gun and let's get outta here before they figure out who got screwed! My 10/22 has been the most trustworthy, and easy to dismantle and clean, rifle I've ever owned! I've never had a hangfire or any kind of problem with it no matter what kind of ammo I use, NEVER. It's still all factory, no fancy stock, scope, or anything else. It still shoots like a dream.

    Once upon a time, I made an assumption that Aguila 60 grain sub-sonic ammo would maintain a nearly constant velocity over 100 yds and therefore it might shoot pretty decent groups. I calculated how much bullets would drop if my assumption were correct and they hit just where I thought they would. If you have access to that ammo, you might be pretty impressed by what it can do from your rifle.

      There's one variable missing from your theory. The rifling twist rate on a stock .22 LR barrel is too slow to properly stabilize that long 60 gr. bullet. This one factor outweighs the rest of the variables combined. I'd love for you to have access to a barrel chambered for and with the right twist for that round, and a case of that ammo. I'd bet the results would be what you are looking for.

    Thanks for a fun vid, partner. Plinking with a 22 is still one of my favorite ways to spend time! I have owned several 10/22s, and only one has actually shot poorly with every ammo I tried. Most of them are more than acceptable with common- but not bulk- ammo (like CCI Mini Mag), and VERY good with at least a couple of the more uniform loads (i.e. Eley or Federal match). A smooth, fairly light trigger makes a big difference on these feathery guns, and allows one to wring the best accuracy from them.

    Nice free hand shooting. I've got a bolt action .22 from years ago that before covid would take out to the state rifle range and shoot a few times a year. They are fun and great for teaching shooting to kids. No kick, no loud noises, and simple to hit the target for success.
    I am impressed that you hit the targets at 100 yards and 120 yards. I only shoot 50 yards. Maybe if we get ammunition back in stock to buy I'll try the 100 yard shot at the range.

    I purchased my first Ruger 10/22 back in the early 1980’s, using CCI stingers I was shooting metal thumbs tack size groups at 50 yards all day long! I actually shot that rifle so much that I wore out the trigger. Since then I have replaced the trigger, up graded the barrel and stock along with a new scope. Some day I will take it to the range and see what it can do.

Not too sure who the government was trying to protect from ,such a dangerous tool, perhaps they had plans for us down the track, say 2019. Guess we’ll find out soon. Those guns had a good reputation here in Australia as I’ve heard a lot of people commenting on how good they were.

    Good morning Whoteewho. I liked your videos from the first one I watched and noticed that you proved that you don't need a $1500 scope to shoot a budget rifle accurately. I have a 30-year-old Marlin 60 with a Simmons Whitetail scope I bought at the same time at Walmart. I took it out several weeks ago and it was still zeroed in and shooting small groups while shooting free-handed. Simmons used to make a scope in their old Aetec line of scopes that I put on my Browning 22=250; back when Simmons introduced the first scope with an aspherical lens. It wasn't cheap for a budget scope but it wasn't expensive compared to any other brand name scope. A friend owns the rifle now and he said it's still a tac driver. The glass, the turrets, diopter, and parallax adjustment were of great quality and feel. What was most impressive was the large eye box and eye relief not to mention the clarity of the glass in any lighting condition. Simmons is now owned by Bushnell and they have an Aetec line but they are not the same as the original ones but still a good scope for a $130 scope. Appreciate the videos, great shooting for 22LR which is hard to shoot a good 5 round group unless you Match grade, Olympic grade ammo. God Bless.

Few hundred rounds since and only jams have been from shooting in below freezing temperatures but otherwise flawless

    I made considerable use of a 10/22 topped with a 4x Weaver about 30 years ago. It was glass beded and would make a quarter sized group at 50 yards with 10 mini mags. It wasn't exactly match grade but it was a consistent shooter. I took jack rabbits out to about 125 yards and one very surprised prairie dog at about 200 yards. A 12 ounce pop can was no feat at 100. My primary ammo of choice was CCI. I kept 3 mags loaded with HP, solid, and Stinger. I covered all bases for a small game opportunity. I could have used that set up to have taken almost anything that walked crawled or slithered in my area back then. If it had been a shoot it or starve scenario I would have been fine with it.

    Every red blooded American needs at least one ruger 10/22. My uncles 1972 model probably has over a millions rounds through it. It’s mine now after he passed. It was the first gun I ever shot. I have a 2012 mossy oak camo take down with the threaded barrel, a 2014 50th anniversary mossy oak camo takedown in stainless and just bought the limited edition ruger vote red white and blue 10/22 back in October. And then I have a Henry I bought when I graduated.
    It’s sad to me that a lot of people look down on a 22, but for most of us, it’s what we learned to shoot. It’s usually what got us into the lifestyle we have today. Great video man.

    I was always wondering why people even bother with 50 yard or meter accuracy.
    If shooter, gun and bullet compination can keep groups around (preferably inside) of inch at 100 yard or meters it will be more than
    plenty enought for half of that distance. Taking those rimfires for longer distance should not be a problem if compination
    is already working okay.
    Only real downside with 22lr will drop quite fast after 100 mark. If we are talking about hunting
    situation most likely you wont get next shot if you miss. Target animals usually dont have patience to wait
    when shots are coming closer :D

LOL Mine will shoot any ammo without fail but prefers Mini mag HP's for accuracy. Last year I tested it for penetration @ 100 yards with Rem HP "Golden bullets". It penetrated through a 4" cardboard box full of packed sand and expanded perfectly.
