Designed to harmonize barrel vibrations and refine the rifle’s natural frequency during firing, the tuner allows the BR 04-2 to be precisely calibrated to specific ammunition lots and environmental conditions. Trigger control is delivered through the exceptional TriggerTech Diamond, adjustable from an impossibly light 4 ounces up to 32 ounces. The break is crisp, instantaneous, and devoid of creep—a trigger that disappears beneath the shooter’s finger, leaving only intent and execution. What truly distinguishes the BR 04-2, however, is its marriage of modern precision with traditional artistry. The rifle is seated in a handcrafted Precision WoodCraft walnut stock by Randy Ownes, built specifically for the Trident platform. Rich walnut grain flows through the stock like topographic contour lines, giving the rifle a timeless elegance rarely seen in contemporary precision builds. It is a rifle equally at home on the firing line or displayed as functional craftsmanship. Crowning the system is the Arken EP-5 5-25×56, mounted securely in an Area 419 one-piece mount. With its 34mm tube, first focal plane design, illuminated VHR MIL reticle, and repeatable tracking, the optic provides the clarity and confidence necessary for precision shot placement in any condition. The BR 04-2 is more than a custom rimfire rifle—it is a statement of intent. A rifle for the shooter who understands that excellence is hidden in the smallest details: chamber alignment, trigger break, bolt timing, stock geometry, and the calm certainty that comes from equipment built without shortcuts. - **Full Component Specifications**: - **Action**: - Manufacturer: PQP (Dan Killough) - Model: Trident - Bolt Lug/Angle/Style: 3/75°/RB-RP - **Barrel**: - Caliber: 22LR - Manufacturer: MullerWorks - Contour (diameter/length): .905” Straight - Twist: 1:16 - Other: 20 MOA Pic Rail - Barrel thread size: N/A - **Tuner**: - Holeshot: (Dan Killough) - Adjustable from 0-500 and lockable - Anodized Aluminum - Black Numbering - Threaded on the end for accessories - **Trigger**: - Manufacturer: Trigger Tech - Model: Diamond - Trigger Adjustment Range: 4-32 oz - **Chassis/Stock**: - Manufacturer: Precision WoodCraft (Randy Ownes) - Profile: Low - Color: Walnut - **Scope – Optional**: - Manufacturer: Arken - Model: EP-5 - Specs: 5-25×56 - Tube: 34mm - Focal Plane: FF1 - Recital: VHR, MIL, Luminated ### X-Shot Precision Valkyrie .22lr (BR 04-1) - **URL**: https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/x-shot-precision-valkyrie-22lr/ - **SKU**: BR 04-1 - **Platform**: Rimfire - **Caliber**: 22LR - **Availability**: In Stock — Ready to Ship to Your FFL - **Starting Price**: $4,542 - **Package Options**: - Standard Build: $4,542 - **Summary**: The BR 04-1 was built with a singular purpose: delivering uncompromising rimfire precision through a carefully engineered blend of performance, craftsmanship, and repeatability. - **Details**: The BR 04-1 was built with a singular purpose: delivering uncompromising rimfire precision through a carefully engineered blend of performance, craftsmanship, and repeatability.

It is the same skill set as centerfire PRS, at a fraction of the cost per round, and it is one of the fastest-growing ways to get into precision shooting. - **Best For**: New precision shooters, and centerfire PRS shooters who want affordable training. - **What Matters Most**: - A chassis or adjustable stock that is stable on barricades and bags - A smooth, repeatable action that cycles fast under time pressure - A first-focal-plane scope with a usable MIL reticle for holdovers - Weight and balance tuned for positional shooting - **In-Stock Matching Rifles**: [Bronze Reaper .22lr](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/bronze-reaper/), [RimX Overwatch .22lr](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/rx-03-2a-prairie-ghost/) ### Rimfire Benchrest (Rimfire) - **Typical Distances**: 25 & 50 yards - **Overview**: Score-based matches (such as ARA and IR 50/50) shot from a rest at small scoring rings. Wind reading and absolute mechanical consistency decide matches, often by a single X. - **Best For**: Shooters chasing perfect scores and the tightest groups a .22 can produce. - **What Matters Most**: - A benchrest action with a precise lockup (e.g. PQP / HoleShot designs) - A match barrel paired with a tuner to dial in your ammunition lot - A low-profile benchrest stock that tracks straight in the bags - A light, crisp trigger measured in ounces - **In-Stock Matching Rifles**: [Trident Eclipse .22lr](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/trident-eclipse/), [X-Ring Authority .22lr](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/pqp-2500x-walnut-precision-elite/), [Apex Rimfire Precision .22lr (RB/RP)](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/apex-rimfire-precision-2500x/), [X-Shot Precision Valkyrie .22lr](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/x-shot-precision-valkyrie-22lr/) ### Centerfire PRS & NRL (Centerfire) - **Typical Distances**: 300 – 1,200 yards - **Overview**: The centerfire version of positional precision: multi-stage matches with steel targets at real distance. Ballistics, wind calls, and speed under pressure are all tested. - **Best For**: Competitors ready to step up from rimfire, or anyone who wants to shoot steel at distance. - **What Matters Most**: - A rigid action and match barrel with a twist suited to high-BC bullets - A chassis with an ARCA rail and adjustable fit for positional work - A threaded muzzle for a brake or suppressor to manage recoil - A quality FFP scope with plenty of elevation, plus a 20-MOA rail - **In-Stock Matching Rifles**: [Bronze Meridian 6.5CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/bronxe-meridian-6-5cm/), [Axiom 6.5CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/cybex-axiom-6-5/), [Bronze Prometheus 6.5CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/prometheus-blackforge-6-5cm/), [Hammerhead Pro Match .223](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/green-reaper-gen-ii-precision-forged-long-range-ready/), [Hammerhead ELR 6.5 CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/hammerhead-elr-6-5-creedmoor/) ### Centerfire Benchrest (Centerfire) - **Typical Distances**: 100 – 300 yards - **Overview**: Group and score benchrest is the most accuracy-focused discipline in shooting. The 6mm PPC has long been the standard in short-range group benchrest, and every component exists to remove variables. - **Best For**: Accuracy purists who measure success in thousandths of an inch. - **What Matters Most**: - A benchrest action (e.g. Kelbly’s Prometheus) in a bedded benchrest stock - A heavy-contour barrel machined to match the action - A cartridge known for inherent accuracy, such as the 6mm PPC - An ultra-light trigger and a stock that tracks perfectly in the bags - **In-Stock Matching Rifles**: [Prometheus Dominion 6 PPC](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/prometheus-dominion-6-ppc-benchrest-rifle/) ### Long Range & ELR (Centerfire) - **Typical Distances**: 1,000 yards to 1 mile+ - **Overview**: Long-range shooting stretches the limits of ballistics, optics, and wind reading. A heavy-barreled 6.5 Creedmoor is an excellent, manageable entry point. True ELR (well beyond a mile) usually moves to larger magnum cartridges, so call us if that is your goal. - **Best For**: Shooters who want to see how far they can push it. - **What Matters Most**: - A heavy barrel that stays consistent through long strings - A scope with generous elevation travel, plus a 20-MOA (or more) rail - A stable chassis or folding stock with room for a bipod and rear bag - High-BC bullets and accurate ballistic data - **In-Stock Matching Rifles**: [Bronze Meridian 6.5CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/bronxe-meridian-6-5cm/), [Axiom 6.5CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/cybex-axiom-6-5/), [Bronze Prometheus 6.5CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/prometheus-blackforge-6-5cm/), [Hammerhead ELR 6.5 CM](https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/ready-to-ship/hammerhead-elr-6-5-creedmoor/) ### Frequently Asked Questions - **What is the difference between rimfire and centerfire ammunition?** Centerfire ammunition uses a separate primer seated in the center of the case base. Rimfire ammunition holds its priming compound inside the hollow rim of the case, and the firing pin strikes the rim to ignite it. - **Can you reload rimfire ammunition?** Conventional rimfire ammunition is not designed to be reloaded. Precision rimfire shooters lot-test factory match ammunition (such as Lapua, Eley, SK, and RWS) to find the lot that groups tightest in their barrel. - **What does a barrel tuner do on a rimfire rifle?** A tuner is an adjustable muzzle weight that shifts barrel harmonics so bullets exit at a consistent node, tightening groups and reducing vertical dispersion for a given ammo lot. - **Do Cybex rifles arrive ready to shoot?** Yes. Every rifle is professionally assembled, test-fired with match-grade ammunition, and cleaned. Scoped rifle packages are zeroed prior to shipment and ship in a custom-cut foam case to your FFL dealer. --- ## Technical Articles & Guides ### How Buying a Rifle Online Works: The FFL Transfer Process Explained - **URL**: https://cybexprecisiongunworx.com/blog/how-ffl-transfers-work/ - **Category**: Buying Guide - **Published**: October 17, 2026 - **Summary**: Buying a firearm online is simple once you know the steps. Here's how FFL transfers work, from choosing a dealer to picking up your rifle. If you've never bought a firearm online, the process can seem confusing. Can a rifle be shipped to your house? (No.) Is it complicated? (Not really.) Here's how buying a rifle online works, step by step, so you know exactly what to expect. > **Note:** This is a general overview of the typical process, not legal advice. Firearm laws vary by state and locality, so check the rules where you live and talk with your local dealer. ## The Short Version Under federal law, a firearm bought online generally **can't be shipped directly to you**. It ships to a **Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL)**, a licensed dealer near you. You visit the dealer, complete the required paperwork and background check, and take your rifle home. That's the whole process: **buy online, ship to your FFL, pick up locally.** ## Step by Step ### Step 1: Choose a local FFL dealer Find a licensed dealer near you that accepts transfers. Most gun shops do, and many pawn shops and some home-based FFLs do too. Call ahead and ask: - Do you accept transfers from online sellers? - What is your **transfer fee**? (These vary by dealer.) - Do you need anything from me before the rifle arrives? ### Step 2: Place your order When you buy, you'll provide your chosen dealer's information. The seller needs a **copy of the dealer's FFL** before shipping. Often the dealer emails it directly to the seller, or the seller looks it up. At Cybex, we'll coordinate with your dealer to make this easy. ### Step 3: The rifle ships to your dealer Once the seller has verified your dealer's license, the rifle ships to them, insured and tracked. The dealer logs it into their records when it arrives. ### Step 4: Your dealer contacts you Your dealer will let you know the rifle has arrived. Some states have waiting periods or extra requirements, so ask your dealer what applies. ### Step 5: Paperwork and background check At the dealer you'll: - Show a valid **government-issued photo ID** - Complete **ATF Form 4473**, the federal firearms transaction record - Wait for the **background check** (through the FBI's NICS system or your state's own system). It's often approved within minutes. - Pay the dealer's transfer fee ### Step 6: Take your rifle home Once approved, the rifle is yours. Inspect it at the counter before you leave. ## Common Questions ### How long does the whole process take? Once your order ships, delivery to your dealer usually takes a few business days. The pickup visit is typically quick, unless your state has a waiting period or the background check is delayed. ### How old do I have to be? Federal law sets minimum ages for purchasing from a dealer, and some states set higher limits. **Cybex Precision Gunworx requires buyers to be 21 or older.** See our [Terms](/policies/terms/) for details. ### Can rifles ship to every state? No. Some states and localities restrict certain firearms or add requirements. Check our [Restricted States](/policies/restricted-states/) page, and confirm with your local dealer before ordering. ### What does the transfer cost? Each dealer sets their own fee. If you're near Toledo, Ohio, Cybex Precision Gunworx also offers [FFL transfers for $25](/ffl-transfer/). ### Do accessories, optics, and cases need an FFL? Generally no. Non-firearm items like scopes, cases, and accessories can usually ship directly to you. Only the firearm itself goes through the FFL. ## Why We Make It Easy Buying a precision rifle should be exciting, not stressful. Every Cybex rifle is **in stock, professionally assembled, test-fired, and zeroed** (when shipped with a scope), then packed in a custom-cut foam case and shipped to your FFL. There's no build queue and no guesswork. Have a question about the process? Call us at **(419) 740-0456** and we'll walk you through it. *Ready to choose your rifle?

Few cartridges have changed precision shooting like the **6.5 Creedmoor**. Since its introduction in 2007, it has become a staple of PRS competition, long-range target shooting, and hunting. It offers excellent accuracy, manageable recoil, and long barrel life for its performance. But what can it really do at long range, and when should you consider something bigger? Here's a practical look. ## Why the 6.5 Creedmoor Works So Well The Creedmoor's strength comes from **efficiency and balance**: - **High-BC bullets.** 6.5mm bullets in the 130 to 150 grain range have excellent ballistic coefficients. They resist wind drift and hold velocity well. - **Moderate recoil.** You can spot your own impacts through the scope, especially with a muzzle brake or suppressor. That matters for correcting quickly. - **Accuracy.** The cartridge was designed around long, aerodynamic bullets seated in a short action, and it's known for being easy to shoot accurately. - **Barrel life.** Compared to hot magnum cartridges, a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel typically lasts longer: often a few thousand rounds of match accuracy, depending on how it's shot. - **Ammunition availability.** Quality factory match ammo is widely available, so you don't have to handload to get good results. ## What to Expect at Distance Exact numbers depend on your bullet, muzzle velocity, barrel length, and atmospheric conditions. Always build your own data. But here's the general picture with a quality heavy-for-caliber bullet from a 24 to 26 inch barrel: | Distance | What it's like | |---|---| | **600 yards** | Very manageable. Wind calls matter, but hits on reasonable steel are routine for a practiced shooter. | | **1,000 yards** | Well within the Creedmoor's ability. Wind reading becomes the main challenge, and good data and a quality scope are essential. | | **1,200 to 1,500 yards** | Achievable with the right bullet, good velocity, and good conditions, but you're approaching the point where the bullet slows toward the speed of sound. Accuracy can suffer as it goes transonic. | | **Beyond about 1,500 yards** | This is where most shooters move to larger cartridges built for extreme long range (ELR). | > **Remember:** At 1,000 yards, a modest crosswind can push a bullet several feet. Long range is a wind-reading game as much as a rifle game. ## What Matters in a Long-Range 6.5 Creedmoor Rifle ### A rigid action and quality barrel Consistency is everything at distance. A premium action, like the **BAT Hammer Head** or **Kelbly's Prometheus** we build on, paired with a match barrel such as a **Krieger**, gives you a rifle that repeats shot after shot. ### The right twist rate A **1:8 twist** is the common choice for the 6.5 Creedmoor. It stabilizes the long, heavy, high-BC bullets that perform best at long range. ### A heavy barrel contour Heavier barrels heat up more slowly and shift less as they warm during long strings. That matters in competition and in extended range sessions. ### Optics and elevation Long range takes a lot of elevation adjustment. Look for: - A quality **first-focal-plane scope** with plenty of internal elevation travel - A **20-MOA (or more) canted rail** to give you extra elevation without running out of scope adjustment ### A stable chassis A chassis with an ARCA rail, adjustable cheek and length of pull, and room for a bipod and rear bag helps you build a stable position and manage recoil. ## When to Consider Something Bigger The 6.5 Creedmoor is a fantastic long-range cartridge, but it has limits. If your goal is **true ELR** (consistently engaging targets at **a mile and beyond**), shooters generally move to larger, faster cartridges with heavier bullets that stay supersonic much farther, such as the .300 Norma Magnum, .375 CheyTac, or other dedicated ELR rounds. The tradeoffs are real: more recoil, more expensive ammo, shorter barrel life, and heavier rifles. For most shooters, the 6.5 Creedmoor covers everything out to 1,000+ yards, and that's where the vast majority of long-range shooting happens. ## The Bottom Line The 6.5 Creedmoor is popular for good reason. It's accurate, efficient, and easy to shoot well. For PRS, steel out to 1,000 yards and beyond, or a first step into long range, it's hard to beat. When you're ready to chase targets past a mile, that's the time to talk ELR. *Our centerfire builds start with premium actions and match barrels, and every rifle is test-fired and zeroed before shipping.

Here's why lot numbers matter and a simple process to find the lot your rifle likes. Here's something that surprises many shooters new to precision rimfire: **two boxes of the same brand and model of .22LR can shoot very differently in the same rifle.** One box prints tiny groups. The next opens up for no obvious reason. The difference is usually the **lot number**. Understanding lots, and testing for them, is one of the cheapest and most effective ways to improve your rimfire accuracy. ## What Is an Ammo Lot? Ammunition is made in production runs. A **lot** is a batch made with the same components, on the same equipment, in the same period. Each lot gets a number, printed on the box or the case. Within a lot, ammo is relatively consistent. **Between lots**, small changes in priming compound, powder, bullet weight, or case dimensions can change how the ammo performs. ## Why Rimfire Is So Lot-Sensitive Several things make .22LR especially sensitive: - **Priming.** Rimfire primer compound is spun into the rim. Small variations in how much there is, and how evenly it's spread, affect ignition and velocity. - **Velocity spread.** Small velocity differences change where each bullet exits during the barrel's vibration (see [What a Rimfire Tuner Does](/blog/how-rimfire-tuners-work/)). - **Every barrel is different.** Chamber and bore dimensions vary slightly from barrel to barrel, so a lot that shoots well in one rifle may not in another. The result: **your rifle will "prefer" some lots over others.** The only way to find out which is to test. > **The payoff:** Many shooters find that switching to a well-matched lot shrinks groups more than any accessory upgrade, and costs much less. ## How to Test Ammo Lots: A Simple Process ### 1. Gather samples Buy a box or two of **several different lots**, either of the same ammo or a few different match-grade options. Write each lot number on its box. ### 2. Set up for consistency - Shoot at **50 yards** from a **solid front rest and rear bag**. - Pick a **calm day**, or shoot early. - **Foul the barrel** with 10 to 20 rounds of the first lot before recording groups. - Use a fresh aiming point for each group. ### 3. Shoot multiple groups per lot One group tells you very little. Shoot **at least three to five 5-shot groups**, or a few 10-shot groups, per lot. Fire a few fouling shots each time you switch lots so the barrel adjusts. ### 4. Measure and record For each lot, record: - Lot number - Date, temperature, and conditions - Each group size, especially **vertical** spread - The average group size ### 5. Compare averages, not best groups The lot that shot one tiny group isn't necessarily the winner. Look for the lot with the **smallest, most consistent average**. Consistency wins matches. ## Found a Good Lot? Buy Deep. When you find a lot your rifle likes, **buy as much of it as you can afford**: a case or more. Once it's gone, you start testing again. Store it properly. Keep it in a cool, dry place with stable temperatures, since heat and humidity swings can affect performance over time. ## Testing Tips - **Tune and test together, carefully.** If your rifle has a tuner, test lots at one fixed tuner setting first, then fine-tune the tuner for your chosen lot. - **Use a chronograph if you have one.** Lower velocity spread often goes with better accuracy at distance. - **Don't test on a windy day.** Wind will hide the differences you're looking for. - **Keep good notes.** A simple spreadsheet becomes very valuable over time. - **Ask about test centers.** Some ammunition makers and dealers offer lot testing services, where your rifle is shot with many lots in a controlled tunnel. This can save time if you're serious about benchrest. ## The Bottom Line Your rifle, barrel, and tuner can only perform as well as the ammunition you feed them. Lot testing takes a range session or two, but finding the right lot is one of the biggest accuracy improvements you can make. *Every Cybex rifle is test-fired with match-grade ammunition before it ships, so you start with a proven rifle.

Here's how they work, why benchrest shooters swear by them, and a step-by-step method to find your setting. Walk the line at a rimfire benchrest match and you'll notice that almost every serious rifle has something extra on the end of the barrel: a **tuner**. To a newcomer it looks like a muzzle brake or a weight. To a benchrest shooter, it's one of the most important accuracy tools on the rifle. Here's what a tuner actually does, why it works, and how to set one up. ## The Problem: Barrels Vibrate When a round fires, the barrel doesn't stay still. Pressure and the bullet moving down the bore make the barrel **whip and vibrate** in a wave-like pattern. The muzzle is moving, very slightly, at the moment the bullet leaves. If every bullet left the muzzle at exactly the same point in that motion, every shot would go to the same place. But no ammo is perfectly consistent. Small differences in velocity mean bullets exit at slightly different times, and so at slightly different points in the muzzle's movement. The result is **vertical stringing**: groups that are taller than they are wide. ## The Solution: Change the Timing A tuner is an **adjustable weight threaded onto the muzzle**. Moving it in or out changes how the barrel vibrates. The goal is to adjust the barrel's vibration so the muzzle is at a **turning point**, the top or bottom of its swing, as the bullet exits. At that moment the muzzle is moving the least. A slightly faster or slower bullet exits while the muzzle is almost still, so the impact barely changes. Shooters call this finding the **"node"** or a **"flat spot."** When the tuner is set right, vertical shrinks and groups tighten, sometimes dramatically. > **Key idea:** A tuner doesn't make bad ammo good. It makes the rifle more forgiving of the small velocity differences that exist in even the best ammunition. ## Why Benchrest Shooters Rely on Them In rimfire benchrest (ARA, IR 50/50, and similar formats), you're shooting at scoring rings smaller than a .22 bullet hole at 50 yards. One shot slipping out of the X-ring can decide a match. A tuner gives you a way to **match the rifle to your ammunition lot and conditions**, and that's why our benchrest builds, like the [BR series rifles](/ready-to-ship/?type=rimfire), come with a tuner installed. ## How to Tune: A Step-by-Step Method There are several tuning methods. Here's a simple, reliable approach. ### Before you start - **Use one lot of ammo** for the whole session. Ideally it's a lot you've already tested and like. (See [Why Ammo Lot Testing Matters](/blog/22lr-ammo-lot-testing/).) - **Shoot at 50 yards**, the standard benchrest distance, from a solid front rest and rear bag. - **Pick a calm day**, or shoot early morning when the wind is light. Wind will confuse your results. - **Clean and foul the barrel** with 20 to 30 rounds so it's settled. - **Mark your tuner's starting position** with a paint pen or note the scale reading. ### Step 1: Shoot a baseline Shoot a 5- or 10-shot group at your starting tuner setting. Measure it and write it down, paying attention to the **vertical** size of the group. ### Step 2: Move in consistent increments Move the tuner a set amount, for example a fixed number of marks on its scale, always in the same direction. Shoot another group on a fresh aiming point. Repeat until you've covered a full turn or more of adjustment. ### Step 3: Look for the flat spot Lay out your targets in order. Somewhere you'll see a **range of settings where groups are consistently small**, especially in vertical. That middle zone is your node. Avoid settings at the very edge of a good zone. Choose the **center**, so small changes in temperature or ammo won't push you out of it. ### Step 4: Confirm Go back to your chosen setting and shoot a few more groups to confirm. Then **record everything**: tuner setting, ammo lot, temperature, and group sizes. ## When to Re-Tune The node can shift with: - **A new ammo lot.** This is the big one. - **Large temperature changes.** Ammo velocity changes with temperature. - **Barrel condition.** As it fouls or after a deep cleaning. Many competitors make small tuner adjustments during a match as conditions change. Your logbook becomes your best tool here. ## Tips From the Bench - **Change one thing at a time.** If you change the tuner and the ammo together, you won't know which made the difference. - **Don't chase a single great group.** Look for a zone of good groups. - **Be patient.** Tuning a rifle properly takes a full range session or more, but you only have to do it once per lot. ## The Bottom Line A tuner is one of the most effective accuracy upgrades on a precision rimfire. It doesn't replace a quality action, barrel, and ammunition, but it helps all three work together. If you're serious about benchrest scores, it's not optional. *Every Cybex rimfire benchrest rifle is assembled with a tuner and test-fired before it ships.

If you've watched precision rifle competitions and thought *"I'd love to try that, but not at $2 a round,"* PRS Rimfire and NRL22 were made for you. They use the same positional skills as centerfire PRS (building stable positions on barricades, calling wind, beating the clock) with a .22LR, at local-range distances and for a fraction of the cost. They're also among the most welcoming ways into competitive shooting. Here's what to expect and how to show up ready. ## What Are PRS Rimfire and NRL22? Both are **timed, positional precision matches** shot at steel and paper targets with a scoped .22LR rifle. - **NRL22** runs a standardized course of fire each month. Clubs across the country shoot the same stages, so you can compare scores nationally. Distances are short (typically **25 to 100 yards**), which makes it a perfect first match. - **PRS Rimfire** matches are designed by each match director. Expect more creative stages, more props, and longer shots, often out to **200 to 300+ yards**. A typical stage gives you a set amount of time (often 90 to 120 seconds) to engage several targets from one or more positions: prone, kneeling, off a barricade, a tire, a ladder, or a rooftop prop. Hits score points; misses don't. > **Why start here?** Rimfire ammo is cheap, recoil is almost zero, and a .22 is very sensitive to wind. Every mistake shows up on the target, which makes it one of the fastest ways to build real precision skills. ## The Gear You Actually Need You don't need a truckload of gear for your first match. Focus on these essentials: ### 1. A precision .22LR rifle This matters most. A rifle for positional shooting should have: - **A chassis or adjustable stock** with a flat-bottom forend that sits steady on barricades and bags. - **A smooth, consistent action.** You'll cycle it quickly under time pressure, and a sticky bolt costs points. - **A match-grade barrel** that groups consistently at 50 to 100 yards. - **Good balance.** Forend weights can help the rifle settle on props. That's the thinking behind rifles like our [RimX-based builds](/ready-to-ship/?type=rimfire): a proven Zermatt RimX action, a match barrel, and an MDT chassis, assembled, test-fired, and zeroed so you can focus on shooting instead of tinkering. ### 2. A first-focal-plane (FFP) scope with a MIL reticle You'll hold over for elevation and wind constantly. An FFP scope keeps the reticle subtensions accurate at every magnification. A **MIL-based reticle with matching 0.1 MIL turrets** is the most common setup and makes it easy to talk data with other shooters. ### 3. A bipod and a rear bag - A **bipod** for prone and some barricade positions. - A **rear bag** (or two) for support under the stock and for building positions on props. This is the most-used piece of support gear in the game. ### 4. The basics - Eye and ear protection (required) - At least 3 to 4 magazines, loaded before each stage - A **data card** with your elevation holds at each distance, taped to your stock or scope - A notebook to log what worked and what didn't ## Ammunition: Keep It Consistent Most competitors use **standard-velocity or match-grade .22LR** (around 1,050 to 1,100 fps). High-velocity ammo goes from supersonic to subsonic in flight, which can hurt accuracy at distance. Even more important than brand is **consistency**. Different lots of the same ammo can shoot differently in the same rifle. Once you find one that groups well, buy as much of that lot as you can. We cover this in detail in [Why Ammo Lot Testing Matters for .22LR Accuracy](/blog/22lr-ammo-lot-testing/). ## How to Prepare for Your First Match 1. **Zero at 50 yards** and confirm your holds at 25, 75, and 100 yards (and further if your range allows). 2. **Practice positions, not just groups.** Shoot off a chair back, a fence rail, or a stack of bags. Time yourself. 3. **Dry-fire at home.** Building a position and pressing the trigger smoothly costs nothing. 4. **Read the match book** if it's posted in advance, and plan your positions. 5. **Arrive early and ask questions.** Rimfire shooters are a friendly crowd, and most will gladly help a new shooter. ## Common Beginner Mistakes - **Rushing the first shot.** A good position beats a fast one. Speed comes with practice. - **Ignoring wind.** At 100 yards a light breeze can move a .22LR bullet more than you'd expect. Watch the mirage, grass, and flags. - **Changing everything after one bad stage.** Log it, fix one thing at a time. - **Not knowing your holds.** Write them down. Under the clock you'll forget. ## The Bottom Line PRS Rimfire and NRL22 are the best value in precision shooting. You'll learn positional shooting, wind reading, and match pressure, skills that carry straight over if you move up to centerfire. Start with a rifle you can trust, keep your ammo consistent, and get to a match. The fastest way to improve is to shoot with people who are better than you. *Not sure whether rimfire or centerfire is right for you?
