[QUOTE="Groundhogshooter, post: 1798793, member: 91034"] Believe it or not. My best grouping has been with Thunderbolt. They are nice chunky bullets that fill the bore. Catch is it takes some effort from the shooter. I start by sorting the ammo by 1/2 grain increments. When I get a brick sorted I sort the lots by rim thickness... that is your head space for .22s. I have found that anything less than .0355 rim thickness should go in a cull bin. Every missfire I have had is less than .0355. I sort them in groups of every.5 thousandth. Once I have my groups sorted by weight and rim thickness, then I am ready to shoot. Typical result at 25 yards is a 30 cal hole after 10 shots. Short story is you don’t need to spend a lot of money to get good ammo... if you have time to make sure you have consistent ammo. That is the key. [/QUOTE]
