What exactly did this video show other than the difference in two types of ammunition? You never sighted the rifle in to be on target and you never showed how much a bullet drops at different ranges.
could you try this again with stingers or other hyper velocity rounds. I would be interested to see if it flattened out the trajectory or not. where is the 22lr +p That would be fun.
That last comment is hilarious,about the .22 not being a good hunting "all around" hunting cartridge is beyond nonsensical. First off more people are killed with a .22lr than anything else in america. So yes. The cartridge will inflict enough trauma to lead to expiration,however that in no way means its remotely ethical or smart. At 30 meters the 22lr is capable of killing up to deer sized game,if you put it in their eyeball,however unless you put it in the brain or a vital organ you'll lose that deer leaving it to potentially die unharvested. How about using the right tool for the job.
So tired of seeing that tired old lie trotted out. 9mm is the most common round for pistols in the country. Criminals, police and regular people alike heavily prefer 9mm. Handguns are used in the majority of shootings and 9mm in the majority of handguns. .22lr will certainly kill you, but it is far from the “more people are killed with (insert cartridge)” cartridge. Quit perpetuating bullshit and do a bit of research.
Nice video...just you need to take some time to aim... but often this is the case with a semi-auto. rifles... At 100 yards you should be able to hit a quarter size target with out any problem. So many time people use the higher velocity bullets . Every rifle is different granted. However I have found using sub-sonic bullets such as Ely " targets" are expensive....but very are accurate ! Try many different brands / bullets..... see what happens. Typical... sub-sonic ( 1060 fps ) 50 yrd zero.... 75 yds 2 in. drop.... 100 yrd...6 in. drop... 125 yrds.... 14 inch drop etc. At 200 yrds...about 5 ft drop. Still very accurate out to 300 yards ..and can kill a deer dead ! A well placed shot in the chest area..bleed to death in a few moments. They hardly know they have been hit.
Most of my problem was that the camera was a few feet away from the target 100 yards away so after walking back my heart was beating harder than normal . Also I was just resting the rifle on my backpack. Over all I was happy to do that well. Thanks a bunch for the input. Lately I have been doing videos about mock deer scrapes.
Thank you for this video. This confirms the results I was seeing with Winchester Super-X vs. CCI Mini-Mag. What is the largest animal you've taken with a .22lr ?
The cam was on a tripod about ten yards from the target and I hoofed it back 100 yds. to the shooting line and rested the rifle on my back pack. It wasn't supposed to be about accuracy but how far a .22 drops. Just having fun.
