do you make them with left hand bolt action?

I got my RPR in January of ’18. I tried about every ammo brand, and found that with Federal Gold Medal Ultra Match, it will consistently shoot all holes touching at 50 yards. Next best was Center X, and the worst was always any Eley ammo. Go figure. My Anschutz, which I sold, could do nowhere near the accuracy of the RPR. Haven’t done much 100 yard testing, since there is always a wind at Ben Avery range north of Phoenix.

Doesn’t look like Anschutz will be too worried. I wonder if a new barrel would improve it enough to be competitive in Smallbore Prone on metric targets?

Always enjoy your site, but 22 Plinkster measures his group size for the Ruger Precision 22 like a friend measures his targets – very optimistically. The ruler he’s using has ~ 1/8 inch before the markings start which he disregards…:-)

Editor: It’s not as bad as it seems. About the ruler — -He is measuring RIGHT edge to right edge of the most extreme bullet holes. That’s why part of the left bullet hole is off the ruler. Normally one would measure center to center, and if that is not do-able, then measure OUTSIDE edge to outside edge and subtract TRUE bullet hole size on paper, which is normally LESS than nominal bullet diameter (sometimes by a notable amount). In discussing the particular target, 22 Plnkster said “about a quarter inch”. In our text we said “well under half an inch”.
