Took the Plunge - Ammo Question

[cyphertext]

I'm surprised no one gave this answer... One of the reasons that you may have found the mini mags is because they are expensive when compared to bulk .22lr at $.04 per round. Also, when you go to a store that has a limit of x number of boxes, would you buy bulk boxes of 300 - 500 rounds first, or boxes of 100 rounds?

But in answer to your question, the CCI mini mags are good rounds and should not be an issue with your 15-22. If it had an issue with them, I would send it back.

If I could find any brand of .22lr at $.04/round I'd buy a boatload as my 15-22 doesn't seem to be very picky about it's ammo.

I haven't been shooting my .22's at all lately because the prices of available ammo are in the ballpark of what I can reload centerfire ammo for.

I was checking this morning and the cheapest .22lr I could find in stock was $.16/round. No thanks! I can reload .223 for my Sport 2 for about $.22/round and it's more fun to shoot.

Don't expect mini mag performance out of that browning jun- I mean stuff.
Winchester ( who makes the browning ammo) is in a neck and neck race to the bottom of the quality control basement with Remington. I know these days you have to take what you can get, but would only buy Remington or Winchester ammo if it came down to that or don't shot.

I have a couple of 15-22 rifles, and they've run everything. The guns don't care either way. I get a few failures to ignite, with golden saber. But the same thing happens with my other 22s. So I'm sure that it's the bullets.
Side note; get a McFadden quick loader. You can load much easier, and almost as fast as you can shoot. Theyre cheap enough, and well worth it.

I've run several hundred Stingers through my 15-22 just fine. They're my go to round when a varmint around my place needs a dirt nap, and Stingers certainly get the job done.

I have also shot several hundred rounds of CCI Stingers through mine without an issue and it has now become my Ammo of choice. It certainly packs a wallop on metal targets when compared to other kinds of Ammo I have used.

My 15-22 also goes through CCI ammo with no problem. I had 3 bricks of Remington Golden Bullets I gave away since my rifle seemed to hate them. Strangely, my 15-22 runs PMC Zappers better and more accurately than any other ammo.
