.22 pellets for 100 meter rings scoring?

[Aimright]

Recommended speed is all over the place with the MRDs. As an example, supposedly, the polygonal rifling of the Red Wolf HP does best with the MRDs @ 960ish.

One of the most impressive performances I've seen in a long time was at a night match for long range high power field target back in October. The wind was intense. @Aimright used his Red Wolf to be the high over-all score, outshooting Thaynes Simmons, and Thayne was using slugs! If memory serves, aimright was shooting the MRDs up around 1020fps.

I've got a new barrel being delivered tomorrow, slow twist polygonal from LW. Interested to see how it compares to the 12 land and groove.

The .22 MRDs are an enigma.

I am shooting the MRDs at 970 in my Redwolf. From all the flier stories I think may just have lucked out and acquired an unusually consistent batch of the JSB MRDs. I am running very low on those and will soon have to dip into my stash of FX MRDs so will soon see if my JSBs were truly a unicorn batch.

Previous to the RW I had a .22 Prophet with the 1:32 twist barrel that I was shooting the same batch of unicorn JSB MRDs at around 1000. I never could get comfortable with that gun plus it had an unresolved mechanical issue with the breech so accuracy suffered and I can’t even say for sure if it had fliers.

I am looking forward to hear how the new “redesigned redesigns” work out.

Sounds like I was confused.

Thanks for clearing that up. That makes another polygonal .22 that likes the MRD in the 960ish range (970).
