Range Report: offhand plinking

I’ve been so busy with projects I get little time to plink. While waiting for a load of rock I decided to make some noise. I’m shooting an H001 SGC offhand at 50 yards and hitting 11” bullet traps. Not really a test of skill but still fun. I had two failed to feeds both user errors. Yes I made the rookie mistake of not cycling the lever like I meant it.

CCI SV is my go to round for plinking. It’s accurate enough and doesn’t make a lot of noise.

It is really green here. I’m back to the rock pile so no shooting for a few days.

Congrats on the plinking, been so hot here of late.
I like that SV CCI ammo also. I've been grabbing a box or two about every time I go to WW.

I have a couple of older 22 rifles that I prefer to use those in vs the high vel. stuff as well.
As they were built before the HV was a thing.

That’s an important thing to remember. HV is relatively new to rimfire.
