it will send bullets through the same hole as long as you do your part, and has been doing it reliably since the 1940s

the 15-22 smith is a fun gun and I have a small 4x scope on it and it is coke can accurate at 50 yds no problem, it is just fun to let it run

another one I own is an early Remington 552 speedmaster, it shoots it all shorts, longs and long rifles

Ky wonder,
A Mossberg target rifle similar to yours was the second rifle that I ever owned, around 75 yrs. ago. I had earned, and saved the money to buy it, and the store was out of town, my mother went with me on a bus, to buy it. I removed the large pivoting peep sight, and had an inexpensive weaver scope installed. I still have that large peep sight, stored away in my gun stuff. It proved to be a very accurate shooter, but, way to large, and heavy for me at around nine yrs. old, I was used to a small light rifle that was easy to carry in the field, and could only afford one rifle, so, it went the way of so many good old guns. Thanks for letting me share an old, long winded, true story.
