A while back I bought a half dozen different .22LR loads to print out of the Henry Survival rifle. Figured y'all might enjoy seeing how they performed.
Three shot groups from 25 yards, prone, with factory irons.
36gr Mini Mag
36gr Federal
36gr Armscor
40gr Blazer
All shot in a similar manor, two shots bring close together while throwing the third slightly.
What I didnt expect was such a hard POI shift with the 32gr Stinger... And I'm not sure what to even say about the ultra slow 40 grain Quiet 22.
I've had my suspicions with those two loads before in that rifle, but never compared it like this. Explains quite a few misses I had before this. It just struck me as odd that the fastest AND the slowest performed so badly.
I'm not saying this is a statement of all rifles performance with these loads, just what they did for me out of this flimsy pilot rifle.
