Buzzard Posted April 10, 2010 at 03:08 PM Share Posted April 10, 2010 at 03:08 PM Both scoped and open sight rifles? Can someone elaborate on this? Either scoped or iron sights (adjustable sights are prefered so you can zero). Targets are reduced size and the actual distance is 25 meters.Make sure you can get a M1 Garand style cloth/nylon sling on the rifle and you will be good to go. Next problem - I've procured a Marlin .22 semi-auto. No sling mounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should also reblue the barrel. The last caretaker wasn't doing his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzard Posted April 10, 2010 at 04:57 PM Share Posted April 10, 2010 at 04:57 PM Targets are reduced size and the actual distance is 25 meters. Anybody know which targets they use? and how much they're reduced? Target examples here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashes Posted April 11, 2010 at 01:36 AM Share Posted April 11, 2010 at 01:36 AM Targets are reduced size and the actual distance is 25 meters. Anybody know which targets they use? and how much they're reduced? Target examples here. AQT (Army Qualification Target) and sighting squares and something called "Red Coats". Sometimes there are "special" targets. The simulated 100 yard target is basically a 20moa target at 100 yards. So at 25 yards it'll look like 5moa (maybe a bit larger). Same scale for the 200 yard, 300 yard and 400 yard targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same scale for the 200 yard, 300 yard and 400 yard targets. I was at the Bristol Range yesterday and sighted in my 10/22. I used the AQT targets you can get from the Appleseed website. I think it was 50 for $15. Target LinkAlso thanks Ashes for the info on the Tech-Sights, they are wonderful and so easy to adjust. Made my groups got smaller and smaller the more tweaking I did. I am so excited for next weekend. Thanks Kenny for the 10/22. I love this little rifle and I have found so many aftermarket parts to modify this little thing. I am looking at a KID 2 stage trigger system with the long lever for the magazine release. Once again the people on this forum are helpful and give you thie right answers.

Ashes Posted April 15, 2010 at 03:12 PM Share Posted April 15, 2010 at 03:12 PM You going to have time to zero that before the Appleseed? I vote SCAR (but only because I wanna try the SCAR too! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Posted April 15, 2010 at 04:05 PM Share Posted April 15, 2010 at 04:05 PM My buddy just told me the Socom would kind of suck at an appleseed because the rear aperture is so big. I think I am going to stick with the SCAR. Should I bring some guns for show & tell? Like the m107 & the Socom II? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
