Ammo suggestions

[w0ady]

Just my old-fart opinion, but folks get too worked up over a couple of feed failures in a whole big box of relatively cheap ammo.

im glad ive had a couple failures in my 15-22 and a handful in my 1911 .22. it helps keep me on my feet and gives me practice dealing with them in a situation before it really counts for something.

w0ady,

I agree that does give you a chance to address that situation. We can all use the experience to make sure we know how to handle the situation.

yup ive never had issues with my xd's and i dont practice drills as often as i should so it was actually a pleasure when i did have some with my .22s.

Just don't let Majorlk know if you try Winchester WildCats.

I know that the WWs are not recomended - but because I have so many around I tried them anyway. They worked fine for me. No jams or problems.

New member here, and I was in the same position as the OP a few weeks back having just bought my 15-22. Most of the reviews I read on the matter seemed to have recommended the brands thrown about here, but I tended to notice that the CCI Minimags seemed to end up most of the reviewers of the weapons #1 choice, so I went with that.

So far I have taken my 15/22 out twice putting 300 rounds through it (hey also was shooting my AR-15 and handgun as well ) and have had just one misfeed. For a .22lr that really is pretty darned good.

mini-mags are great but you can also try out cci blazer and federal bulk for some reliable, cheaper options.
