SaeedAnother Crazy 22 Ammo Test! Completed!
We have over 70 different types of 22 ammo.Practically all of them have different bullet lube.
Some almost greasy, some looks like very lightly caked on wax and some actually falls off in quite large chunks.
We have no idea which one works and which does not work.
So we decided to try something, just for fun.
I took a brick of ELEY TENEX.
I cleaned all the lube off the bullets with Hoppes, until they were down to the bare lead.
I coated 120 rounds each using a bullet lube and sizing lube we use from the Woodchuck Den. It water soluble.
120 with Molly spray like we use on our copper bullets.
120 with Molly bore paste.
The idea is to shoot 12, 10-shot groups of each of the above, as well as normal out of box ammo, and one lot of those that have been cleaned completely of lube.
The bore will be cleaned between each type.
I have shot the normal ammo, the clean ammo and the amp coated with the Woodchuck Den lube.
I have not measure the targets, but from 50 yards they mostly look the same!!??
Rifle is a Sako with a 20x Leupold.
I will try to finish this tomorrow and I will post the results.
