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. |

You need to get your FAL. I believe it has been suggested to you prior.

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.

That's nice.
I have very little experience with powder, but have heard the CCi is good ammo, and of course the name Anschultz rings accuracy.

Well, I’ve finally found that indoor range, close to home, where I can take my .22LR and do some mid week evening shooting, and my “bunny rifle” is welcomed 👍🏻.
I’ve owned it for about 9 months, but haven’t shot it yet, because there is a severe lack of shooting ranges around here. But I finally got to shoot it for the first time a few nights ago! I bought 4 different types of sub-sonnic ammo and picked one to try… 23m, never fired it, did t even know if I was going to be on the paper, but gave it a go 😉 Man was I impressed with that little rifle. Not only was it on the paper, it was almost on poi, and producing very nice little 5 shot groups too! Well chuffed with my little Anschultz .22LR! 😉
