Exploring Precision Rimfire with Vudoo Gunworks: A Shooter’s Experience

by Scott Austin

Good day, precision shooting enthusiasts! Today, I want to share one of my latest passions—exploring precision rimfire shooting—and how I found an exceptional partner in Vudoo Gunworks. This journey started about a year ago during a visit to Vudoo Gunworks in St. George, Utah, where I had the privilege of walking through their meticulous build process for .22LR rifles.

Impressive Craftsmanship at Vudoo Gunworks

Being familiar with the techniques for building precision centerfire rifles, I was thoroughly impressed by Vudoo’s dedication to their craft. In fact, I’d say they put more effort into their .22 rifles than most gunsmiths do with centerfire rifles. The attention to detail was remarkable, and it wasn’t long before I found myself leaving with a new rifle—and a slightly lighter wallet.

Performance Beyond Expectations

After working with the Vudoo rifle for over a year, I can confidently say it’s the most accurate .22LR rifle I’ve ever shot. Just two weeks ago, it was consistently shooting 1/4” groups at 100 yards—phenomenal accuracy for a .22. Some days, everything aligns perfectly!

Currently, I’ve worked out the DOPE (Data On Previous Engagements) to 740 yards, and the goal is to push this rifle beyond 1,400 yards. While this might seem ambitious, the precision and consistency of this rifle make it a realistic objective.

Key Features of the Vudoo Rifle

One aspect I love about the Vudoo rifle is that it’s designed on the Remington 700 footprint, which means there are numerous chassis and stock options available. I’ve placed mine in a KRG chassis, which offers the balance and weight I look for in a precision rifle.

Additionally, the Vudoo allows for dry firing without damage, which is an invaluable feature. We always recommend to our guests that they spend as much time as possible dry firing to build muscle memory and improve shooting abilities.

A Seamless Transition to Precision Rimfire

What sets the Vudoo apart is how it mirrors the weight and balance of my other precision rifles. This consistency means there’s no additional learning curve, allowing for seamless integration into my existing setup.

A Note on Barrel Length and Customization

If you’re considering a precision rimfire build, I highly recommend contacting Greg Roman at Vudoo Gunworks. Greg is not only knowledgeable but also willing to tailor the build to your specific goals. When it comes to pushing a .22LR rifle past 1,400 yards, every detail counts—especially barrel length.

For those looking to dive deeper, Greg has numerous videos on YouTube covering everything from Vudoo rifles to fundamental shooting practices and cleaning procedures. Whether you decide to go with Vudoo or not, Greg’s insights are invaluable for anyone serious about precision rimfire.

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking to explore precision rimfire with the best in the business, Vudoo Gunworks is an exceptional choice. Whether you’re aiming for tight groups at 100 yards or attempting to set new personal records at over 1,000 yards, the Vudoo .22LR rifle will not disappoint.

 

Feel free to reach out to Vudoo, or give me a shout if you have any questions about this build or precision rimfire shooting in general.

 

Happy shooting, my ballistic friends, enjoy exploring precision rimfire !
