That's because the hoarders aren't bothering with rimfire. They're after rounds with "stopping power".  You're a dedicated man of science, sir! Just an idea: Do you think you should start a fresh thread for the accuracy test, just to make it more manageable? | |||

Best of the lot is some Federal BIRD SHOT to test for accuracy!  | |||

The one that surprises me is the Winchester Super X and how it increases it's velocity when moving down from the 25" to shorter lengths and then retains that velocity far behind expectations. I have a lot of the Winchester Super X HV with the stated 1280 fps and found it to be very effective at varmints in sizes it should not handle. Good work Saaed | |||

Sadly, in this rifle at least, it is one of the least accurate loads tested. | |||

My main .22lr pursuits are hunting and the accuracy you got was a wee bit worse than what I get out of some aftermarket barrels. I'm getting 1.0-1.5 inches at 75 yards and happy with that performance. Do you have any updates on George Vais lately? | |||

I have not heard from George for a while. 22 rim fire ammo is great for fun, and of course hunting as well. But, having shot, and seen shot, hundreds of thousands of ammo, I am totally convinced 22 rim fire cannot achieve the reliable accuracy of reloaded center fire ammo. | |||

based on data calcs.. the CCI stinger is the outlier at nearly 4X standard with CCI - 76 FPS for 19 inches without the CCI, 56 fps for 19 so, 2-3 fps per inch opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?
