I received this 22 LR Match barrel and scope yesterday and went up to shoot it. I set this target up at 25 yards to site it in.
The three shots at the bottom are where I walked it up and then shot the group on the right before moving the scope to the left for the group in the middle.
This is the first rimfire ammo I have put through this gun and I haven't shot a Contender in several years.
While shooting, I had several misfires where the case had a light firing pin mark. Some of these would fire when I reset them in the barrel and some wouldn't. This was CCI Mini Mag ammo.
Initially when putting them into the chamber they were somewhat tight. With the misfires after taking them out, they were noticeably looser going in the second time.
Does anybody know what I should look for as the cause of the misfires? With this site in at 25 yards, where should I expect it to hit at 50 yards, higher or lower?
