The 22 LR match barrel is superbly accurate. My daughter and I routinely shot 195+/200 scores on the 50 yard NRA target. The chamber in this match barrel is a bit tight, so extraction requires a small pair of pliers when using non-match ammo. We used Federal American Eagle Hollow Points (38 grain) because they were cheaper than match ammo.

The 30/30 barrel was used for some ballistic coefficient experiments and some brush deflection experiments. Accuracy is good for a 30/30 but not comparable to a good bolt action (1.5 MOA with Nosler Ballistic Tips). With the scope, it makes for an excellent light rifle, weighing in at less than 5 lbs.
