Here are some pictures of my match grade 22lr I have used for competition over the years. I hope I can get the pictures in order (1) Original Suhl 150 Standard I used for indoor 28 feet matches. (2) Suhl 150 benchrest with Limb saver tuner (3) Rem 504 with Lija target barrel and 18x40 Leupold scope won many silhouette matches with this rifle and (4) Mauser Oberndorf used in hunter rifle Sihouette extremely accurate rifle bolt has lugs on the front just like a center fire. When you open a picture they come out right side up.     |

We did have one man who was in a wheelchair in high power. His first name was Frank. I shot high power and smallbore silhouette for almost 30 years. Unfortunately he started winning matches and people started complaining that he was resting his elbow on the arm rest boy if that didn't take guts for people who were not paralyzed to bitch about him resting on the arm rest. he later quit shooting.

The picture of my Rem. 504 with Lija barrel is another screw up for Remington. They brought the 504 out as a classic sporter rifle the action is a scaled down 700 but the action is not threaded for a barrel it has a split in the action and clamps the barrel in place this works really well when head spacing different brands of ammo. Thats the good part Remington put a junk barrel on the 504 which gave it rather poor accuracy never could get 5 shots to stay together So Lija started offering drop in barrels for the 504 I have one drop in and this one is target barrel with a Eley match chamber.
The 504 has a very crisp trigger that easily adjusts to 2lbs which was perfect for hunter rifle silhouette. Rem. dropped the 504 and made it a custom shop order with a match barrel another bright move from Rem.

The gentleman I know shot smallbore silhouette in the early and mid 80's (possibly some of the 70's) His name is Tom, he shot at a pretty high level, placing rather well nationally. He also, later on, shot 3 position smallbore as well as air rifle. Yes, he also had competitors grumble about his "advantage" of being in a chair. |
