          I didn't know a 22lr would even travel that far.

              My savage MKII starts getting challenging at 350 yards. At 500 yards my elevation is maxed from the 50 yard zero. 750 is possible but not consistent due to wind. I just use a primary arms 4-14 rgrid ffp.

                  "C Zed" Down hill. Is it me or does the rear sight base look elevated? Very interesting setup.

                    I think he said he was using sight rings from an airgun.

                      would the .22lr bullet have enough energy to do lethal damage at that range? or will it be no more painful than getting pinched or getting hit with a paintball?

                        Going to a dry lake bed for some long range shooting is very educational. Shooting my 45acp across the lake, you can go down and pick them up and look like new except for the rifling. They just flat out quit flying at about the 3/4 mile mark.

                          Not really that impressive. I can hit out to 500yds with my 10/22 on iron sights no problem*

                            Well it is in Australia
                            and everyone knows the toilet bowls flush in the other direction and bullets spiral in the other direction, which gets the bullet closer to the center of your aiming point.

                            It's just common core algebranometry.

                              That scope is almost as big as the rifle!
