Hello Everyone;
I am getting older and this rifle isn't getting the attention it deserves. This .22 cal D460 was tuned by John in Pa and I have used it to take a whole lot of squirrels. It will pass the ten dimes challenge on a calm day. It usually shoots plus or minus 3/8" CtC with H&N FTT's shooting the .218" (5.54mm) head size at 25 yards. That's not bad. My eyes have cataracts now and shooting with the sights on it I shot this target today:
I drew the circle around the ten shot group with a quarter. Not bad for cataracts with a peep at 25 yards. The rifle will do a dime these old eyes won't anymore without the aid of an good optic.
There is a bit of "browning" which would steel wool out with a bit of cold blue as there is no pitting what so ever. Just plain old sweaty palms. This rifle passed the "Long Ranger" challenge back in the day by hitting a golf ball at 150 yards (it was on the eight try)... not bad for a springer. There was a video on youtube. This was the sister rifle to the model 48 that I head shot the squirrel with at 78 yards. That video is also gone now. I have plenty of pictures and will answer queries via PM.
Original sight is in the box with the rifle ready to send. One tin of about 400 H&N FTT pellets (shown above). $450.00 and I pay shipping and insurance. CONUS ONLY, PAYPAL ONLY.
This rifle is ready to take hunting.
Thats about it. The rest of the pictures tell the story of the rifle.
