The barrel is longer than most barrels that are sold nowadays, at about 24 inches.

That doesn't necessarily make it more accurate, but does make it a little quieter.

The crown is unchanged from original condition, and while not "crisp", it seems to be good enough.

Today, we took it to the range for a little shooting session.

I was shooting some CCI Minimag .22 Long Rifle Hollow Point ammunition.

This is not usually the most accurate ammo we shoot, but this rifle seems to like it just fine.

Here I am having some fun.

And here's a five shot group at 50 yards.

I was aiming at the top left corner of the black square.

I believe that would give a squirrel an ear ache.

These old rifles are still shooters and are a joy to shoot, as they tend to hit what you aim them at.
