asmurff Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I'm a firm believer in CCI Min-Mags and Federal Auto Match. I've had very little problem with either over the years. I shot CCI in my tricked out tacticool 10/22 during the Tactical Rimfire Matches. For my Buckmark Federal Auto Match as always worked well in both plinking and the few times I've used it to compete. I've also been using it to practice with the rifle and if all keeps going as it has I may stop buying CCIs, hey I never have intentions of competing beyond the fun local level.

Drag Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I've shot Federal 333, Remington Gold, and CCI out of my Colt and have had no issues with any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmike Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 The SuperX works just fine in my Colt, no functional issues at all. It is not my favorite, larger groups than Federal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4rk Posted August 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 dont know much bout physics, but is shooting with larger grain (40) better? more stable?? than shooting a 32 grain and under?? FPS really matter? cuz if it is, then CCI velocitor is the winner, 40gr 1435fps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 I use 40gr because they are round nosed, most of the lighter ones are hollow point and I've have had a few feeding issues with hps. I don't know about the lighter one as far as being more stable they should be faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chadderbocks Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 At my Walmart, the price of the M22 was $45/1000rd. The Federal 550 box was $15. You can get 1650rd of Federal ammo for the same price of 1 box of the Winchester M22. I prefer the CCI Mini-Mags. I never shot Federal in my .22, so I decided to give it a try because I just got the BDM 50rd magazine. Federal ammo is dirty, but my gun had no issues eating it up. I wanted to try the M22 but I couldn't resist the $15 price tag with the Federal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilibreaux Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 The Winchester "RN" 1300 fps ammo has performed flawlessly in my GSG-522, Walther P-22, Ciener Platinum Cup 1911, Ruger 10/22, and Razorback.I really LIKE this ammo...it's clean both outside and "in" speaking in terms of residue left behind.It has NEVER demonstrated a feed jam in ANY of my guns, and I'm sitting here racking my brain to remember if a round ever failed to fire.My Walther LOVES this stuff..well, it loves everything else too, and my GSG REALLY seems pleased when firing this ammo.I'd buy a LOT of this ammo if the price ever gets a little more competitive.
