I have no experience with this ammo and would like to know if this is good quality ammo. I am interested in the 40 HP's.

I had some. Seemed like good quality. Shot it in my CZ512 and Ruger American Compact. Just average accuracy, nothing special. Might do well in your rifle. The Ruger shoots the Hornady 30 gr VERY accurately. And believe it or not, the CZ likes Scorpion, which is some of the least expensive 22 mag ammo I found.

If it shoots as well as the Fiocchi ammo they contracted for, a few years ago, it's not bad at all. It was about the only 40 gr. load my CZ 455 barrel liked, in fact, though it was nothing special, really (I'm spoiled by a superb .17HMR).

It's not bad, but that rifle hasn't really impressed me much in ANY of the three chamberings. Dunno if it's just my sour luck, or a bad rifle. In any event, the Fiocchi (Armscorp ammo in a Fiocchi box) was one of the better loads.

My experience is with the 40 grain JSP stuff, MOA out of my falling block Savage 72 I re-chambered from .22LR.

My Marlin 882 hates it. Shoots MOA 5 shot groups with 40 gr. HP Maxi-Mags and 2-2.5" groups with the Armscor.

It's very accurate out of my Marlin XT-22 mag.
