ive always shot the marlin 39A with a peep sight, and now with a 4power scope and at 30 yards i put quarter sizedgroups in the 10x ring with a box of rem thunderbolts(the cheap-os)

but ive also got a remiongton model 550-I with the good mossberg-style iron sights that ive fallen in love with-i guess im just uneducated in the .22 department
