Speaking of match rifles....
Speaking of match rifles....
Okay, Millman got the rimfire ball rolling by posting pics of that beautiful H&R 5200. I figured I'd keep things going by showing a few pics of my Anschutz 1611 which, like Millman's H&R, is used in prone competition. Enjoy

Very nice!
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yes, Mr. Hlavinka has witnessed the Anschutz in action .Hlavinka wrote:Post some targets Mike.
Here are two targets shot at 50 yds from the bench. Each group is 10 rounds. Ammo was SK Std +. The rifle did have a Weaver scope (20X) mounted on it for these groups.
The measurement readout on the caliper is the C-T-C group size - in other words, you set the caliper to .223" (bullet dia.), then rezero and take the outside edge measurement.
I also have some decent 25 yd and 100 yd targets in the files, but no pics of them, yet. Maybe tonight.......

Forgot, it's a Remington, M540X, my Dad gave it to me. Even with the open sights, it will put 5 shots into a group smaller than a dime. Allen

Re: Speaking of match rifles....
Yes, he was, wish he was still around. If I could figure out how to get pictures from his scrap books on this site, he has a lot of pictures that were taken when he was in boot camp in 1940, bunch of guy's mmarching, all carrying 1903's, my Dad shooting a 1911, complete with lanyard. He left me quite a few gun's that my son will inherit, and hopefully he will pass them on to his son. Allen
Re: Speaking of match rifles....
That's a nice rifle Allen.
