wobblinwheel Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 Next time, try the Winchester 555's. They're $19 at Wally-World. They shoot REALLY good and have a BIG hole in the end of the bullet. Leave a big mess when they hit a critter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Posted May 24, 2011 I've never had problems with ammo just because it came from Wal-Mart, it isn't like they are buying seconds. A bad lot of ammo is cheaper for the manufacturers to destroy than to even try and defend in a civil law suit. I tend to stick with Federal and CCI because overall I have less problems with them than any other all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michigan Joe Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 You could buy Remington Thunderbolts or Golden Bullets at Tiffany's and they still would not consistently fire. It doesn't matter who sells ammo, if it's good, it's good. If it's bad, it's bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
