I've shot competitive 22RF when Hub City Range (Lafayette) was still in operation 12-15 yrs ago. I had a custom built Sako Finnfire, Lilja barrel, Jewell 2 oz. trigger, LEU fixed 36x scope, as rifle weighed 10.5 lbs.
It's all about the ammo to be consistent and shoot tiny groups or scores. When the right ammo was found most people bought pallets full of the same lot ammo. Rem 40x, Anschutz, and custom single shot actions were the norm.
Lots of fun yet it takes money to win and be competitive . I still have my same aforementioned rifle and use it to shoot squirrel
