    lol. Scopes still take alot of skill to get the rounds in the right place. But yes they do make it easier. Open sights however are everybit as accurate as a scope its just that our eyes can't detect the minor errors aswell without the magnification of a scope showing it.

    for a stock rifle and off the shelf ammo....that's some pretty good shooting Deadeye.......Do any of the shooters do any modifications to their rifle. I suppose you can't load your own rimfire, but in the centerfire arena it one way to ensure consistancy and keep costs down too.

    I rekon you could load you own rimfire ammo! But some people mght think its a waiste of time due to there already low cost

    If companys start making just the brass for rimfires them in sure we could reload it. Rimfires shoot .224 and 17 caliber bullets, plenty of those avalibe and then you need powder a .22lr shell hold only about 2-3 grains of powder!

    Its not bad shooting atall. Most people just have better rifles than me but yes they do have custom parts. Mostly sights etc. We all use the same sort of ammunition. Some use Eley, some RWS.
