Rimfire ammo test

[Guest Magwitch]

i brought a box of Magtech subs on Saturday to test, they seem to be very quiet and cycled rather good, but the groupings weren't has tight has the Eleys . The Magtechs are £35 a 1000 and the Eleys £60 a 1000. The target was 50 yards and the conditions were quite windy here are the results. Would like to see if anyone else has carried out any rimfire ammo tests and what were the results.

I was out sighting and trying different types of ammo earlier this evening, I tried:

Winchester Super-X HV HP.

Winchester Super-X Subsonic HP

Lapua Super club Subsonic

Remington Yellow Jacket Hypervelocity (worst group)

and some Old Eley Scorpion HV that was hanging around

I will post up pics tomorrow, The subs grouped the best and followed by the super-X HV

I have also got some Rem. Cyclone and CCI minimag to test, I just ran out of daylight.

Next weekend i will do Winchesters Vs Eleys subs, this should be interesting as both are regarded as very good ammunition.

Have you tried the remington subs, Magwitch? they have virtually no lubricant, and have a short well rounded hollowpointed bullet, which cycles very well in a 10/22, they are reasonably accurate, and around the same price as the magtech, i quite like them.

[Guest Magwitch]

No Baldie haven't tried them yet, will get a box or two and give them a go.

[Guest baldie]

hi magwitch,

i have tried lapua subs, winchester subs, aguila subs in my cz varmint all shoot well within an inch at 50 yds. i think the winchester is the hardest hitting, then again i killed a rabbit at just over yds with the aguila. regards, tommy

here are a few photos of some groups with my cz around the 40 yrd mark, my favourite ammo is the eley but am using the cci as the shop didnt have any of the eley when i last went in.oh yeah and the blue circle in the middle is the size of a 20p piece

hi bounder,

ive been trying aquila super x subs, realy tight groups at 50 yds,tried them in the field they were great, a rabbit clean kill at 83 yds. also went back to my favourite winchester super x subs {i think that they are harder hitting}, hit a rabbit at 125 yds clean kill through shoulder.

regards, tommy
