Have a Ruger American Ranch 5.56 with a Trijicon Dual RMR. Like the setup enough that I purchased another RMR for the Ruger American Rimfire 22LR. Gives me two rifles with virtually identical setup. Anyhow the Rimfire has been sitting for quite some time waiting on a sight in range trip. Today was the day.
Cool morning, 29 degrees at 8 am, slight breeze. Rifle and ammo were sitting in the cold for about an hour while I listened to the birds with a hot beverage from the thermos. Had the place to myself this morning, just the way I like it.
Took maybe 20 rounds to sight in at 25 yards. Working my way down the target. First two were high, one over the top. Last 4 in the bullseye.
Placed a target at 50 yards. The flyers are on me, jerked the trigger a few times. Three decent hits.
Bought a popper to try out. Set at the berm base 100 yards out. Pulled out a stool and shot freehand maybe 15 shots at 100 yards. Few misses but definite hits. Seems shots are mostly 6 inch drop at 100 yards with CCI Minimag 40 gr rounds.
Will try raising half the triangle holdover next time. Fun morning with the rifle. Followed up with pistol on the steel range.
