[QUOTE="patience, post: 673204, member: 30043"] Every .22 rifle is a law unto itself when it comes to ammo brands and accuracy. Most of mine over the years have been more consistent with sub-sonic or std velocity ammo. I'd do some testing in the rifle you intend to use and try and find a high velocity round that shoots consistently under 1/2" at 30yds. My goal is usually under 3/8th's at 50 so 1/2 at 30 is a reasonable expectation for a good shooting h/v round. RWS hv h/p's are pricey but usually consistent. CCI minimags usually do ok and the Winchester powerpoints usually shoot well. I don't have any guns that shoot the hyper velocity rounds accurately enough to make me comfortable using them. Yours may be different and shoot stingers really well. Sometimes playing with the torque on the rcvr screws can make a big difference and glass pillar bedding a .22 isn't too hard and can help too. Coyotes in thick cover or from a well camoflaged location at 25 to 75 yds are real sport with a rimfire. I've killed 'em with .17 mach 2 and know others who have as well. Shoot with care. Aim small, miss small. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
