Please tell which ammo and model of rifle. "Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, you'll be a mile from them, and you'll have their shoes."

It's the only reasonably priced ammo I can find that shoots consistently across my .22's and is accurate to begin with. If your going to spend much more than $25 per 500 rounds, might as well upgrade to a .17HM2 or .17HMR and get way more accuracy for the same price. Oh, and out of my CZ 452's shooting CCI SV I get groups about the size of a quarter @ 40 yards. Last edited by feriil; 10/02/12.

VarmintGuy Campfire Ranger V Joined: May 2003 Posts: 23,034 Likes: 6 SW Montana	Montanabadger: The latest "quality" 22 rimfire Rifle I brought on line is a Ruger 77/22 VBZ (target weight heavy barrel). I tested 6 brands of ammunition in it using a Leupold 6.5x20 EFR scope for the testing. The groups (all 5 shots at 50 yards) measured from .695" down to .201"! All the munitions I tested were of the hollow-point Hunting type (run of the mill stuff?). I settled on the somewhat pricey Winchester (run of the mill?) Super-X 40 grainers ($31.00 per 500). This same ammo when used in my Remington 40X has produced groups (5 shots) at 100 yards as small as .712". That is GOOD accuracy out at that range for "run of the mill" Hunting type ammo.

Oh, and out of my CZ 452's shooting CCI SV I get groups about the size of a quarter @ 40 yards. Cheap Federal at my Walmart is $19.99 for 550rds now. CCI Standard at $25-30 per brick is a steal for the accuracy it gives. Eley Target, Wolf,SK Standard Plus or RWS match target runs about $60-65 per brick of 500rds and is some improvement on CCI Standard, though not really twice as good as the price would indicate. .17HMR you'd be lucky to get 500rds for $100. Even cheap .22Mag is still $80-90 per brick.
