Been waiting for a good day for this. After Easter dinner we decided the weather was just right.
Range to target: 25 yards. Delivery device: Winchester Model 74 Ammunition: Remington .22 cal "Golden Bullet" hollow points. Ordnance: Star Targets.
I inherited a model 74 last year. Supposedly, they are quite accurate. I think last production year was 1955.
Yep, 1939 to 1955. The one I have was manufactured in 1941. Yes, they are very accurate.

WOOOOHOOOOO! LOL...SRS! BIG FUN! That reminds me to get some range time in this week. Thanks.
OK, educate me... What are “Star Targets”? Why did the vacuum explode?

A brand name for a form of Tannerite. A binary explosive. Nitrogen and powdered aluminum.
Extremely stable and perfectly legal.
Thanks! Appreciate the information.
