    Adjusting rear sights on my SR22

    I am sighting in my SR22 and have read the manuals instructions on how to do it I have the elevation set correctly and am about to work on the windage. Currently it is shooting about 3-4" to the left. According to the instructions I need to turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise. My question...

    SR22 incident at the range today

    We went to our local range today to shoot our .22's I shot 3 shots with my SR22 and on the 4 th shot the slide and spring flew off. The RO shut down the entire range and retrieved them for me and laid then on deck. I checked the gun and saw that the take down lever was in the open position...

    Sr22

    I agree with you on the thought that my SR22 is my favorite plinker. When I first got mine I had a difficult time with accuracy but a couple of visits to the range, a jewelers screwdriver and, a bit of patience and I got it dialed in properly. Also, I had a 22/45 lite that "pinched"my finger...

    Answered my own question on Windage adjustment on a SR22

    Earlier I posted a question if anyone could tell me how far a full 360 degree turn on the "windage screw" would move my pattern. Today I found out that a full turn moved my pattern about 4" at 10-12 yards. By no means am I offering this up as a proof positive but it worked for me. I was...

    I have a Ruger SR22 and am using CCI Mini Mags. Shooting at 7-10 yard paper targets and am having problems keeping on target (in the Red). While cleaning the gun I noticed that the elevation screw on top of the rear sight had backed out and was quite loose. I tightened down just enough to keep...

    Wrangler Accuracy or Lack Thereof

    I have had a Wrangler for about a year and my entire family enjoys shooting it. It is a great gun for training first time shooters. The loading and unloading take a bit of time but it allows new shooters to gain confidence in "handling" a gun. The one thing I would recommend you do not do is to...

    SR22 New gun report

    My distance was at 7 to10 yards and my eyes are 78 years old. I honestly cannot explain why I am shooting the SR so much better than the S&W but it sure was a lot of fun. I also shoot a Security 9 and my scores with that were somewhat respectable. It was my shooting with the 9 that led me so the...

    SR22 New gun report

    Last weekend I bought a new SR22. Rather I traded in a S&W MP .22 on the SR.22. Today I had an opportunity to shoot my new purchase at the local range and I was very impressed with the results of the SR over the S&W. Out of about 100 rounds 75 were in the #10 and #9 ring the others were in the...
