ravenous464 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Any experience, I ordered a box yesterday. I'm worried they will burn hot, I also bought some with 300 rounds with a muzzle velocity of 1450 and energy of 204? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Welcome Ravenous.No experience with these Winchesters but they sound hot.I don't believe modern .22lr firearms rated for HV ammo would have a problem with them.Just don't use them in your "target only" rated firearms IMO.

ravenous464 Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 So I can use them in my old Henry, not my M&P 15 22? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4rk Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 I would.kinda confusing.. so YOU WOULD use it on ur mp15 22 or colt 22?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmike Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Just read that the M&P 15-22 comes in two flavors. Standard and Performance editions. The Performance rifle has a match chamber, and the owner's manual has specific recommendations and prohibitions for ammunition. There is a list of ammo not recommended for the standard version also. The 42 grain ammo is not mentioned, so I would suggest calling S&W. From the owner's manual:Please call Smith & Wesson Customer Service at 1-800-331-0852 ext. 2905 if you have any questions regarding the recom-mended ammunition and maintenance of your M&P15-22 rifle.

M4rk Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 how bout for the colt m4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techmike Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 The Colt has adjustments for standard and high velocity. If I remember correctly the manual specifies not to use hyper velocity ammo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 kinda confusing.. so YOU WOULD use it on ur mp15 22 or colt 22?? Sorry, yeah, I meant OK in the Henry lever action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4rk Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 The Colt has adjustments for standard and high velocity. If I remember correctly the manual specifies not to use hyper velocity ammo.ya. thers that screw u adjust. screw needs to be flushed with standard velocity and 3-5 full turns with HV. i have mines at 2 full turns, shot great with the CCi velocitors with Muzzle Velocity: 1435 feet per second. man, id really wanna try this on my colt, except.. its always sold out and i cant seem to find them in stores. my theory is that since the grain is a little bigger, it would slide in easier in the chamber ramp.. or how ever u want to call it. (not that i get plenty of jams) and the bullet is alot more stable when shooting 100- 200 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
