Really interesting videos. All the best from G.B 🇬🇧

That would drive me nuts. I wouldn't trust the scope, I'd replace it with whatever is on your best shooting rifle, I'd check the mounts, group it again. If it still threw fliers I'd crown the muzzle then bed the action. If that didn't work I'd have a benchrest barrel put on that puppy. Fun to watch, thanks for the video!

I have been shooting competitively for almost 20 years. I put Eley Benchrest through my anschutz and had similar results. I have a good luck with eley target, team, match and tenex. I have also had a lot of great lots of eley and a lot of bad lots too. Another factor you will have to find is what kind of ammunition shoots consistently through the barrel. Any lapua brand ammo through my barrel with have quite a few flyers into the 9 right on a NRA A-23-5 smallbore target when I’m shooting consistent 10’s and X’s.

Great video. Yeah, some guns are really picky on ammo. My winchester 52 would not shoot Remington at all. Horrible, might have well thrown rocks. I wish I had some of my older gun I had in the past. My winchester shot great. My Anshutz was a one hole shooter. Well, I have bought a Kimber government 82 and a match nordic 16 inch upper 22lr. I just got both of these and will see how they shoot. Thanks for all the great videos.

Freelands sports has a pretty good selection of Eley. My Begara shoots Eley Team, Tenx and a couple others really well but the lights out killer in it is Midas+ and Wolf extra match. Thanks for the video and did you see what that one eyed guy in Texas got?!!

Hi Big Guy. Your results with Eley Sport are better than mine. In fact I don't have one rifle that will do much more than regurgitate this junk. I bought a brick of this stuff about 6-7 yrs. ago and still have 4 boxes left. I guess I'll take them to the grave!! I really like your Lithgow LA101. She's a beauty. God bless sir.

That Lithgow bolt sounds smooth as butter. ... As far as shooting with the readers, for me my readers messes up the parallax. If I can dial the reticle to sharp focus with the diopter, and forget the readers, I do much better. But if you cant see the reticle clearly any other way, a man's gotta see the reticle !
