	To sight in my 22 for 200 yards I shoot at 25 yards. When it hits 7 inches high at 25 it will usually hit a schuetzen target at 200 yards.

	I do shoot at Ben Avery. I'll be there in March for the International BPCR Long Range Championship. We start with a .22 /200 yard Match. Then shoot 500-600-800-900 and 1000yards with our BPCR's over sticks. We shoot about 300 rounds over a week. THREE DAYS AT 1000 YARDS/ 30 plus rounds a day. Last year the Ballard I was shooting won the .22 Match. It belongs to a friend who so graciously let me shoot it. It is with out a doubt the most accurate rifle I've ever shot. Great fun, but I only make it down once a year. Enjoy!

Aiming at the 50 yard dot it shoulld shoot about 13 1/2 inches high at 50 yards. Wayne

	Since we are on the subject. I know 22 ammo can be a crap shoot (pun intened), but what have you guys found to work well for 200 yard shooting? Standard velocity, high velocity, sub sonic? And yes, I know there are variables that come into play.

It was really Tenex, a production overrun. Shot a 246-6C a couple of weeks ago, in that calm period right after the first rains of winter. Lots better than the expensive Lapua stuff a lot of us bought when California banned mail-order purchases. I bought the first batch of that Norma Match stuff in the white boxes. Some of that would not go 200 yards. We are still shooting on Tuesdays, 11:00 to about 14:30. We meet at the gate, 10:30. Please join us.

	Late ... I don't remember the numbers... maybe written down somewhere. I just remember none of the various rifles were the same even when I compensated for the ACTUAL MOA of the sights and sight radius involved. Worse, were the 2 Leupold 6.5-20's that had absolutely NO correlation between each other ... OR ... the target ...

	A fun match at Tommy Mason's this summer: 25 shots BR at 200 yards with .22RF, no sighters. Sight in on a rock at the berm and then go for it. I used Federal Auto Match bulk ammo @ $23 a box of 325 rounds... Regards, Joe

	Joe, Remind me, was that the part where one of the shooters put a Loonie in the pot? Or was this the time you took all our shekels? Still good shooting at 200. Greg

	Ha! I had forgotten that Greg! Wayne Tellier did put a Loonie in, but then he won it right back. I came in second. Regards, Joe
