Anybody tried any of the Browning BPR Long rifle ammo? Seem like accurate ammo or is it a bit finicky being a Hyper Velocity round??

Ran into a bunch at a shop today. He has these and my old stand by of CCI Mini Mag HPs along with quite a bit of other LR ammo.

Thanks for the info, flave. Starting to run into it more frequently around here, and sometimes at a decent price.

Will check it out. Time to grab another batch of .22lr.

Shot any larger vermin with the stuff?

I sighted in my CZ 452 with the BPR. I really like it.

Clean burning?? The man at the shop said he heard it was dirty in auto pistols. Really doesn't concern me in my turn bolts too much though.

It seems to be in a bolt action. I have not shot it as much as I'd like to yet.

Basspro had some on the shelf for $9.99/100. Picked up 3 boxes, just because. Will see how they shoot.

My Kidd just loves CCI SV's, but CCI anything has all but disappeared locally. A few boxes of Quiets here and there and that's it.
