Good day all. Pretty quiet in here, so I figured what the faaaaa, I'll throw something up.
I got a replacement magazine for my Winchester 69A, so armed, armed get it?, with an excuse off to my little range I went.
I used only target ammo, RWS Rifle match, RWS Club, GECO pistol match, and a box of CCI Standard. The CCI were just for fun.
Well, hell's bell's if the CCI didn't out shoot the other brands. Now, let's remember to factor in my crappy mechanics, and the 20k/hr wind,
and the fact that this is a sporting/hunting rifle. The CCI gave a 5 shot group, at 50 meters, with only 3 holes! And the 3 holes were very tightly grouped. I didn't measure anything, but the holes were well within a 5 cent piece. I had all but given up on CCI, but there you go. I'll have to get a brick for this dear girl.
I'd say that the other brands shot pretty much the same. I didn't do a lot of 75 and 100 meter shots, given the conditions, but I was not unhappy with the results.
I was pretty ticked off with the gunsmith who adjusted my scope, though. Took me almost half an hour to set it up. What a dork! Oh, look perhaps I whinge too much, he did say that he was on the piss the night before!! haha gotta watch him.
Calling out to all 69A shooters/owners, how do you like your 69A's? And what's her favourite ammo? And do you love he like I do?(yes, I know I'm a dork)
