I've got a couple of those 550 boxes I picked up during Obamascare 2008, and FTFs are to be expected from time to time. At first, I thought it was just the timing problem I was having with my New Bearcat, but Ruger fixed that. Last week I was burning up a few in my 22/45 and had one FTF out of about 140. It went off when rechambered.

At the same time I picked up the 550s, I als got some Winchester white box and later silver box bulk. I don't recall any trouble with those and the accuracy has been good enough for pistol practice.

In the future, I'm sticking with CCI, RWS, and Aguila. Accurate and reliable and available online often enough to keep me ahead of the demand curve.


What fresh Hell is this?
