I think 54 mins would take you to 300 yards...here's a chart for .22...
.22 table 001.JPG
From that you're looking at less than 26 mins (note the velocity is less than what you've quoted for mini mag)

You should still have enough vertical movement on your scope for that - with the scope I'm using at the moment for long-range .22, I've got it zeroed at 200 with the turret wound low to have enough movement to get out beyond 300...

Then it should be fun :grin:

Btw: If the wind is changeable, then I'd recommend aiming off rather than trying to adjust the scope for each shot.
