Another greeting and welcome from Maine. You'll find lots of knowledge here and members eager to help. I've had no problems using Federal bulk from Wallyworld in both my 15-22's. But Remington Golden was a total washout in my Ruger Mark III. Ruger told me that they did not recommend Remington Golden in the Mark III after I contacted them about problems with this ammo. I relegated it to my .22 wheelguns where there were no problems.
