surprisingly i've found it to be one of the most consistent and accurate of the lot.

I have found that my Savage Mk II BV likes them quite a bit. Ten shots in a half inch hole at 25 yards is not too bad, I guess. Not match grade, but good enough.
Good hunting,

My Contender carbine barrel sure loves them. Can cover a 5 shot group with a quarter with them. I was quite surprised. My Rem 597 shoots them like a shotgun pattern, just like everything else I've tried in it. Difference in guns I guess.

It is good reliable ammo.

I have very few misfires with it.

I like the Eagle stuff a lot and it exceeds the Remington Golden stuff by a wide margin.

I've used it in about a half-dozen guns, and it has done very well in each of them. No complaints here...

I used some today in my Kimber....not bad. Not a one hole type of ammo for my gun but just over 1" ten shot groups @ 50 will kill everything that I point at.

It makes good plinking ammo out of a Ruger Single Six but my TC Classic doesn't like it much.

Great price, great ammo. Accurate in most all my 22's.

God, guns, & guts made us free. Let's keep all three!

Excellent inexpensive ammo. Shoots right at 1 MOA in my SuperStock Ruger 10/22s
