I just read a story in the new rifle magazine about Dave Scovill and his Winchester 69A with a 4x scope shooting a 3/8" 5 shot group at 100 yds.while testing various brands of ammo.
Has any one ever done this?
I have to respectfully call BS.
I don't think there is a .22 on this planet that will shoot that good, let alone a Winchester made in the 50's. My best friend thru high school had one just like it and it never saw anything as close as that.
And with CCI mini mags?
I have seen groups like that from recent high end sporting rifles and target rifles at 50 yds? But not at 100.
even so it's not so much about the gun as the ammo. I doubt even Eley match ammo would shoot this good.
It was purported to be a calm day!
Maybe it was a typo?
I may be wrong in calling BS on this one but if it's true I would want that gun badly.
I'm sure the target is on his wall at work.
