Bulk 22 ammo - any recommendations?
I have gotten to where I don't trust any of the bulk .22 ammo. QC seems lousy on all of it, regardless of brand. I buy it for junk plinking ammo, but load only CCI Mini-mags for any serious purpose since I wounded and lost a coyote in my backyard a couple of years back. D----d Remington "Golden Bullet" HP failed to even work the action of my behind-the-door Marlin M2, and the 'yote got to the woods before I could clear it. One experience like that was enough to get me sworn off the cheap stuff.
This was back when .22 ammo was scarce, and the ammo companies were apparently running their production lines full blast, with little attention to quality. Maybe it's better now, but the last Federal bulk I bought (last October) was still crummy.
