Took the 270 out of the safe and took it to the range to make sure it was ready for the season. Nothing to brag about there; just a real solid 3/4 inch gun.

But, shot the T1X at 100 yds while the centerfire was cooling and it turned in some impressive groups. When someone asks how it shoots, I tell them the answer depends on if I'm bettin' or braggin'.
Left group is the bettin' group as I'm confident that it'll group
less than 1 1/4 inch at 100. Right group is a braggin' group that a guy
might keep in his wallet.

Tikka T1X 22LR
100 yds calm conditions
SK PM special

Big Sky ... .46 from any factory 22 is bragworthy. And I like you’re “betting” vs “bragging” line

But, (and I am not being divisive like a Liberal!), just wondering if there are any ladies on the forum who can put up some groups and show us how they also can get it done? I know there are a couple or three at my ranges who can shoot the spots off a snake at 100.....we have seen some great shooting by youngsters on here, and would like to see more of that too. I know my daughter has kicked my pants shooting skeet with a beauty Remington 1100 LW in 20 g I got her.

This thread is for all the Shooters to post up, and I love to see participation from everyone.


A friend’s Mom put these up at 200yards the other day. She’s an excellent shooter.

I guess she is an excellent shooter! That's what I was talking about. Those are stupidly good groups. Do you know what she was shooting? Wait, let me guess....the magical 6.5 CM....

Lol... I’d have to ask to be sure(and I will) but I highly doubt she’s shooting a Creed. Probably a 6.5 of some flavour though.
