Nice. Groups that make you want to go hunting.
Does that accuracy carry on further out?.

Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.

Took my bunny gun and the second batch of sub sonnic ammo to test a little while ago.
Ammo was Winchester subsonnic hollow point 40gr.
At 25Y/23m i think it might have been a wee bit better then the CCI, but I'm very happy with both.
The Winchester ammo did seem to be touch hotter/faster and louder then the CCI.

So if you have a licenced buddy who would take the time to go to club with you, you may be able to shoot.
With all the crap gun clubs have had with regulations it's not supprising that they don't let unlicenced people shoot... Especially if they don't have a member to watch you.
One act of not following the rules could end the club and cause all sorts of side issues to boot.

Its a shame to hear that any shooting club doesn't welcome all shooter levels and gear. Shooting sports are diminishing so that level of snobbery shouldn't happen.
An annie bunny gun is going to shoot well if the shooter does their part, and its great training.

Good to hear you have found a range though, given more spare time id like to try .22 target shooting, but no FAL and busy being busy means i havent.

My old Anschultz didn’t seem to mind them 😂

But just like pelletgun barrels can be fussy, any barrel is going to have preferences.
I’ve got 3 other brands to test soI’ll try another brand next week.
But it’s going to be hard to improve much on those CCI’s 😂

The CCI subsonic ammo is the kind I use in my ruger 10/22 for rabbit hunting.
It seems to cause very little issues in a semi automatic and is super accurate.
As long as there is lead in the air...there is hope.
