Anyone shooting RUAG ammo in their 22LR? I think its made in a Target, Subsonic, HV and one other that I can't recall.

You mean RWS, Norma & Geco ?

I have never seen any actual "RUAG" branded ammo, just the brand names they own..

Yes, RUAG is the company and I've shot the above mentioned brands. This may be RWS branded ammo.

I shoot some that is sold by a company in Nevada called Battle Born Munitions. 40 gr solid bullet, high velocity. It groups very well, easy 1/2" or less at 50yds. I modify it by hollow pointing it with a Waltz die for use on ground squirrels. It really whacks them.

I've been shooting Geco Semi-Auto .22LR ammo, and it is outshooting SK Std+ in my rifles ( I probably have a poor lot of SK). I'm pretty happy with the results. Just yesterday, I shot a fifteen round "group" at 50 yards that I could cover with a nickel. It likewise did well in the other two .22s I took out yesterday (CZ 455 SS, CZ 452 Scout, 10/22 w/GM barrel).

Nothing earth-shattering, but the price per brick is only $2 more than a brick of CCI Blazers locally. I like it and will buy more when I need it.
