Post your .22LR target pics, please! šŸ˜

We had our last match of the year here on Kodiak Sunday. My buddy wanted to shoot it
. Gun had to be 7.5# 3# trigger. We took a perfectly good BDL stock and cut it to pieces on the bandsaw, drilled lightning holes in it. Borrowed a Leupold 2-7 scope. Bought some Leupold backcountry ring/bases. I drilled them out to work with 8-40 screws, counterbored for the heads. Glassbedded his Vudoo with 5 minute epoxy mixed with Glock to this hybrid stock. Made weight by. 6 ounces. No forend on stock, no cheek piece. I cleaned it and sent him to range. Shot a 400 - 31X to win the match.
I'll bet Kerwood was salty getting beat by that ugly duckling.
 
The circle is a 1" rubber stamp I had custom made because I got tired of buying targets and eventually even printing targets...
So I just grab a hand full of construction paper and keep it in the center console of my truck with the rubber stamper and staple gun.
That way I can shoot anytime I get the itch and I always have targets handy.
Rifle definitely likes warmer temps with this ammo. This is pretty common when temps are above 60...but groups definitely open up when it gets 50 or below.
Not only that...summer time drop is about 1.6 mil at 100 yds...
Winter time its closer to 2.0 - 2.1 mil

20" RimX with Lapua CenterX
20 shot string was 6.6 SD

The wife shot a little bit this morning at 50 yards with her Savage. This was the best group she could pull off this morning before it became "too much/too stressful" for her šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£ā€¦ā€¦..and it got a little too windy for "group shooting." Since the original picture I posted I've put a Mueller 8-32x44 SF/TD on the rifle.

Last shot was the flyer. I was amazed at the difference in ammo. Federal Automatch is my backup ammo and almost as good. Tried a box of Ely Tenex on a whim ($20/box) and the group was almost 1". The difference in ammo really surprised me - didn't matter how expensive it was - just some shot better or worse than others.
