I don't mind cheap dirty ammo IF it actually fires. I will go into it knowing I'll need to do some cleaning when finished. In years past though leading wasn't an issue because the round needs to fire to be able to cause leading.I would work the rifle range at our boy scout range during summer camp when I would be down there with our troop. In that week time we would go through a ton of 22 ammo. On several years the ammo of choice(because it was what was given to us) was the Thunderbolt stuff. FTF where like clockwork. I am under the impression though that Remington has revamped their rimfire mfrg and hopefully the FTF will go away. Time will only tell as new stock gets used and actual results get noted.
