We took the TRG-22 out to the range on a cold, rainy day here in Oklahoma to test some new handloads and see how the mechanism and scope performed in inclement weather. After a few tweaks of the scope, we dialed it in and I shot a sweet 10-shot group from 350 yards. The handload was 42 grains of MR 4064 powder with a 168 grain Sierra BTHP. We also used two cameras and walkies to try and capture the realtime shooting experience for the video. Sure beats walking downrange to look at targets!
