Bill/OregonRaamw: Thanks for the link. I didn't see anything about sight adjustment or regulation. Apparently the SPR22 doesn't have a barrel regulation adjustment.

raamwRemington states there is a regulation srew or something similar but the manual does not talk about it

dave sorelThere is a barrel regulation screw near the front of the fore end. I do not know of any one who received intstructions on it use.

RojovinI spoke to a gunsmith at EAA in Florida and he described what adjusments to moving the barrels for regulation. I am going to call them again on Monday and see if they can put this out to us so we all could learn the proceedure. I bought the Warn scope mounts from Brownell's (the only dist in USA) and already put a Leupold 1-4X on the rifle. Just need some range time to get it going. More to follow......

prof242Rojovin,
Thanks for your efforts. Mine needs this to the nth degree.

Magnum Hunter1I have shot 40 rounds thru mine. Like Rojovin, I put a Leupold 1x4 in Kimber rings on mine. I bought a box of Winchester Super X 180 grain Power Points and reloaded ten rounds each of the Speer 200 grain and Sierra 220 grain to see if it just might like a heavier bullet. From the forty rounds I really think mine will eventually shoot close with the Power Points. I shot a group about 1 1/2 inches apart at 50 yards and then moved back to 100. As you screw the jack screw toward the forearm it "tightens" and makes the barrels cross and shoot apart. I worked with it, probably too much with the heavier bullets and did more harm than good. I finally ran out of ammo, but I think if I had had more of the 180 grain stuff, I could have gotten it to shoot well. From shooting mine, I am inclined to believe it might do even better with a 165 grain bullet. It seems to defy common double regulation but I "think" I can get mine to shoot acceptably. Has anyone taken the trigger plate out and worked on the triggers? Mine need a lot of work also. It is suprisingly light for a double rifle.
