Most 22lr ammo won't do that at 50 yards. But with some good target ammo I'm sure it's a shooter. I use Eley Club Extra in my Rem 513t 22lr. I have three of them and they will out shoot me. I wouldn't mind trying the new Rem 547. I have shot a 93/100 with 3x offhand on a AR-5 target at 25 yards once. That's as good as I'll ever do but I'll keep trying. LOL I do like shooting offhand it makes you a better all around shot. It wasn't until I started playing with competition ammo that I learned 22lr are more than just for plinking. A wise man once told me that a 22lr rifle can be as finicky about ammo as any gun you'll ever own. I believe him now. 5 shots 50 yards same hole world champion shooting if done regularly.
