got out n shot my MK3 Hunter this evening just before the range closed. winchester dynapoint and federal american eagle cphp cheapies are pretty good for the $ spent. bet it would REALLY shoot with some fancy ammo!


here are some of the best 25yrd 5 shot groups on 6x........




love the 14" 22lr match tender too.


whurs yer rimfire?....let's see it!

Good shoot'en KYODE

I'll try to get a pic of some of my rimfires and post them in a day or so.

My 14" .22lr is just about my favorite Contender barrel. This was 10-15 shots (forget exactly how many, just finished off the box) at 25 yards with a Simmons 2-6 power scope. There is nothing like a day at the range with my son shooting clays and other peoples spent brass and shotgun shells with our .22's.

Here's some of mine KYODE



The top is a Browing Buckmark with a "tactical solutions" trail lite barrel

The middle is a Ruger MK I with the "tactical solutions" pac lite barrel

The bottom is my S&W 648 in 22 mag

dang!....those are sweet! how do the replacement barrels shoot?....n what kinnda ammo they like?

These two barrels shoot better than the originals. But I'm going to have to do a trigger job on the Buckmark before I know just how good it shoots.

Both these guns like winchester dyna-points but I had to switch to Remington "goldens" for the Ruger and haven't worked with the Buckmark yet. Walmart quit selling winchester ammo and no one else around here sells the dyna-points in the 500 pack

has anyone shot the ruger 22lr sa hunter model?

I have one of the Ruger SA Hunter handguns. It has the .22 LR and the .22 Mag cylinders. I mounted a 2.5X6 scope in the beginning, but then switched to a very compact 1" tube red dot. I have found it to shoot more accurate than any of my other rimfire .22 handguns. The factory open sights are really great if you have young eyes, but mine a way past being young!
I have owned this 'Ruger Hunter' for three years and have really enjoyed it. I did the "Poor Mans Trigger Job" on the handgun and have a creep free and very crisp 2 1/2 lb. trigger. It is one of those must keep,(In my opinion), handguns that come along a few times in life.
Since Ruger put a faster twist rate in this .22 handgun, (1 in 15, like the standard model Goverment Model MK2), it seems to improve overall accuracy.
