I had been wanting to shoot a game of battleship (Birchwood-Casey Shoot-n-c) against the wife with 22lr rifles for some time. I finally managed to convince her a second rifle was
needed. This way she could shoot the 10/22 target model (circa mid-2000s) with a Vari-x II 3-9x and I would pick up something of comparable accuracy potential for a 50yd shooting game.

After much deliberation and reading, I picked up a Tippmann M4-22 Elite.
What a great choice it turned out to be! I mounted an old Vari-X II (?) 2-7x on it and once it was sighted in, well, let the games begin!
To keep the target from getting too busy, we decided that we were only allowed 20-rounds each to hit the 16 dots. At 50yds with a variable breeze our results show a great time was had (though the Olympics teams will not be calling us up

).
