[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 2535172, member: 33622"] Did you ever find a suitable ammo? My first 10-22 liked Norma Tac 22, I never shot paper but on steel I'd say my group size at 300 on most days was around 2moa, depending on wind whether it was mostly vertical or horizontal spread. It was a target version with a Green Mtn barrel swap and a Titan stock. My next 2 - 10-22's were the target light version, one with the aluminum sleeved barrel. I shot lead in one, copper the other, lead version did not like Tac 22, I did not test a lot of ammo and it shot FGGM LV decent. I came to the conclusion with 10-22 that just the violence of the action itself, unless tuned, actually deforms a fair share of lead bullets. Add in loading mags with lubed ammo, every rd you load you disrupt the lube pattern. I know these rifles can be accurate at distance, seemed to me that relying on them everyday is a crap shoot. My latest is a Ruger race rifle, and I have only tried CCI SV, and with the scope that is on it, I can only dial to 250, non windy days it is relatively accurate. I suppose someone will say my sample size is too small, but SV in wind over 6-7mph is plain garbage. Being I have 22LR's that will shoot to 6-700 yards in good conditions, I would not rely on a 10-22 today for the task. [/QUOTE]
