Well I put about 100 rounds through the ol' .22 yesterday. Most of it was just plinking around but I did use my last target with it. So I have a pic of it and one of my model 60. I've had this .22 since I was 15 and i couldn't ask for a better rifle this thing has always been there and performed the way it should. Marlin knew what they were doin when they built these. So have your self a look and enjoy. __________________ "I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?"

200 yards? Really? That's some good shooting and one heck of a .22. __________________ Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) - a system of government where those least capable of leadership are elected by those least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to succeed or provide for themselves are rewarded with goods and services paid for by wealth confiscated from a diminishing number of people who actually work and produce.

i stepped it off it might not be exactly 200 yards
Isn't it for every step multiply by 3? __________________ "I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?"

Every step is approximately one yard. Ten steps, ten yards/thirty feet, give or take. __________________ Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) - a system of government where those least capable of leadership are elected by those least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to succeed or provide for themselves are rewarded with goods and services paid for by wealth confiscated from a diminishing number of people who actually work and produce.

Well I do weird math I counted about 200 steps then multiplied that by three (cause I know 1 step is aprox. 3 feet) then I know three feet is one yard but like you said lol. __________________ "I know what you're thinking.

At any rate a 22 getting groups like that at say....175 (Your steps off surly got you that far) yards is good shooting. I used to have one of those. Darn good rifles those Mod 60's are. |

Ive had my model 60 since I was ten years old, just recently put a 4 x 32 bushnell scope on from our friends at Midway USA and it will shoot penny size groups at 25 yards. |
