I was feeling sorry for this little BSA Model 12/15 target rifle, obviously had a hard life. Purchased it for the thick walled action but what a suprise, it still shoots really well with CCI standard pistol ammunition. 7 rounds in 1/2" is about as good as my 70yo eyes can shoot!

Nothing “ugly” about that!

That’s a fine shooter ! Even if she ain’t the prettiest girl at the ball , she can dance!!
-
I bet she got to looking better after every shot.

I think you pulled 3 of them off! :bigsmyl2:
It looks like you have a good one there!

Beuty is in the eye of the beholder . . . . . and I'd say the way she kisses that target, you're dating the Prom Queen!
-
I have a left handed International Mk2 that doesn't shoot much better . . . or is it me?

Pretty is as pretty does. ;-)
It's hard to find a small frame martini that isn't a great shooter!

I shot an International at college 50+ years ago and they are awesome rifles.
Your "ugly" one is a keeper. Like you, I am old and doubt I could do much better with peep sights so 1" is not too bad in my books. BTW, I have scopes on all my rifles except the pistol carbines. Also, bear in mind you are using "cheap" ammunition.
If it were mine, I would add a scope an keep it looking fugly. Fun to go to a range and shoot itty bitty groups with a "piece of junk".

You call it "The 'Ugly' Duckling" but we know it is cared for and loved like the other ones at your house. We know, nice rifle!

Salt and pepper patina looks just fine!

When you get tired of THAT ugly duckling, send that ugly thing my way!
Mighty nice shooting!
-
The perfect looking rifle to outshoot others at a match!
-
Not ugly, just a real shooter!

That’s not “Ugly;” it’s Character!
If you want “ugly,” look for a Cooey Military Model .22; the one they offered as an understudy or trainer for the Lee-Enfield. That one is so ugly, it’s actually attractive, in a weird way.

Reminds me of an old Twilight Zone episode, don't ask me why.
