Well I picked up the rifle from my FFL yesterday and while I was there I also purchased a Ruger LC9 Max for the wife. I was looking at a sporterized Carl Gustav M38 when my wife was looking at the pistols, I had fully intended to buy that rifle until my wife wanted the LC9. Merry Christmas Wifey!
Anyway I got my rifle home and had set of Burris Signature Low rings and mounted up the scope. I probably should of used mediums but low is what I had and the scope clears the barrel by about the thickness of two index cards. I'm glad it's a .22 LR!
After mounting the scope I pulled the bolt and bore sighted the scope using a soda can about 25 yards away. I was using the right rear corner of my pickup bed as a makeshift rest. After boresighting, I decided to see how close I was to sighted in, and loaded up a magazine of CCI Standard Velocity 40 grain and spun on my Silencer CO Sparrow and proceeded to plink away in my driveway into a dirt bank behind my garage (I live on ll acres a few miles out of town). I do have a 100+ yard range on my property, but my didn't feel like walking to the other end of the property.
I'd say I'm good enough to be on paper! I'll take it out and put it on some bags and do some actual groups, but it was fun to make the can dance. Also it was very quiet with the Sparrow on the barrel, but I'll test several other ammunition types when I get a chance.
