I've been working on building a varmit gun for the ranch for times like this:

Irregular readers may want to try more fiber.
Just before I had to leave for Thanksgiving to break some more rocks I got my Streamlight TLR-2 in. I have the TLR-1 on my AR15, but like having a laser for night work.
Today I mounted the TLR-2 on the bottom rail of my my 15-22 and got to test it out and get it lined up and zeroed. My first impression is that because the laser sticks out of a hump on the body of the light, opposite the mount, its zero line is going to be fierce. I was right. Since engagement range is between 25 and 100' I wanted to zero it at 50'. But that made it as much as 2" off at close range.
I will say it was fun rapid hip shooting the 15-22 and holding a 1" circle at 50'.
I think I'm going to put the TLR-2 on the AR15, move the TLR-1 and get a LaserMax for the 15-22. That way I can zero the TLR-2 for 100' and have less problems with its offset. I know it sounds like a small difference, but trying to hit a 6x8" moving target when you've just awakened is a real challenge and I need all the edge I can get against the insurgents.
