Re: Not impressed
I bought a ton of those at Wally World when they were $19.99 before Obozo. The grandkids love them. They could shoot all they wanted. I still have a fair amount left and a bunch of Federals.

Re: Not impressed
That's exactly the thing to do, rather than hold too long, though you don't want to rush it or snap shoot, either. Good for you.markiver54 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 14, 2021 12:15 pmI must say, I really took my time on each shot, despite the conditions.North Country Gal wrote: ↑Sat Aug 14, 2021 11:29 amThat's very good offhand at 30 yards even under better conditions, Mark. Offhand is a whole different game than shooting from a rest and it takes regular practice to stay at your best.
I expected they would all look like that one flyer at the top. Must have been when a bee almost landed on my face!![]()
Actually, I might have done better if I did NOT take as much time. Seems like the longer I hold on the target, the more I start shaking. Have to then lower the rifle, rest and then try again.
Re: Not impressed
If they are anything like Remington Thunderbolts they are junk. In most my 22 they will foul the barrel and in my S&W M&P 15-22 they leave so much lead in the chamber that after 20-30 rounds, group size is 6" at 25 yds.

Re: Not impressed
Mark, I have some of that ammo here, I will try them in my older H100 later today and will post my results.
But I'm not that much of an offhand shooter, ok?

Re: Not impressed
Offhand? That's not bad considering the bees and all. I'd take it.

Re: Not impressed
Mark, those look better than some of my shooting today. I have some of those Rem Golden Bullets left. Work ok in my 39A, but, would jam now and again in my son's 10/22. .22 ammo can be finicky. You did good Mark.

Re: Not impressed
Thanks Tom! That means a lot.
Maybe the CCI's , which I will try next, / or me, will perform better, next time out.
