[earlcurtis67]

hears my favorite varmint rifle which also happens to be my favorite rifle. It's a westernfield M822 22WMR. It has a 24" barrel,bolt knob, a reworked trigger, bedded and a "custom" krylon paint job. the scope is a Sightron S1. It shoots 1-1.5" at 100 with the 33gr Remington accutips.

I think this looks better. After you rotate it you need to click on SAVE.

After you open your picture so it enlarges you will see the tule with a curved arrow. Click on it and your pictures will rotate. Keep rotating it until it is in the position you want it. Then go over to FILE in the upper left corner and scroll down to "SAVE" and click and it will stay there. Then close the picture and re submit it and it should open in your POST correctly.

Play around with it and you will figure it out.

PS: The rifle barrel is almost pointing at it.

I still have my original varmint rifle and it is a 22 WMR, it was the very first gun that I earned the cash to purchase in 1961 and is a JC Higgins rifle. It paid for its self many times over with lots of Coyotes, ground hogs, rabbits, crows, magpies and grouse. Its not so pretty after all these years but when it was new it would shoot under a half moa at 100 yards.

So the question of the day? How is it to handl the 338 in pistol form?

 

[bowstryder]

That was my first question before taking ownership......
It's chambered in kirby allen's 338 l improved actually. I run 102 grs of retumbo under a berger hybrid. The muzzle brake was originally designed to knock the pain out of a 408 cheytac, according to Kirby.
All that being said, the recoil is very manageable (that is a nightforce nxs on top and I shoot it with about 3/4 field of view), however the muzzle blast/concusion is nothing short of astounding. The last time I ran 10 rounds through it plugged and muffed I felt like I had just been to a rock concert and was coming off a hangover headache for about 30 minutes. Buts it's addicting! And it'll shoot with my custom .338 lm rifle at 1000yds all day.

Mike, I think I said it in sp.info pop, but again, your 20 br is gorgeous! !!!

Here is my 22-243 and a three shot group @ 100. I know, I know, it doesn't count unless it's 5 but it's one of the best three shot groups I've had and I'm ok with it.
