Good feedback. Saw this today and was wondering the forum's opinion.
Looks like it will be part of the next stockup purchase.

Did you read this thread? Doing so will answer your question.
Might pick some up tonight. I am out of ammo
If you run out of ammo, you aren't buying enough at one time.
M22 hasn't impressed me in the 15/22. Its reliability is closer to cheap promo loads than it is to premium ammo. The brand I compare all others to is CCI. The M22 is only about a penny per round cheaper than CCI mini mags.
M22 runs better in my M&P22 pistol, so I can at least shoot up what I have on hand.

I have finished off my first box of M-22 today and it worked fine. There are others that are cheaper depending on what works well in your M&P 15-22. I have a stock for Federal bulk that has preformed well.
Give the M-22 a try and if it works for you great. It seems to be just fine for my rifle.
Good luck.

winchester m22 ammo
hello, last week i bought a smith and wesson m&p 15-22 in the perforfance center version. i have 2 boxes of agulia interceptor coming from cabelas, but in my haste to shoot i bought a brick of the winchester m22's at walmart based on the description on the box. i got home, did a web search, found you guys and was not overwhelmed with the reveiws. next day we went out and the ammo was a complete dissapointment. averaged 5 jams and misfires per mag. luckily i have a little henry repeater that eats anything so it won't go to waste, but it won't go back in the ar either. i joined so i could share my experience with others, hope it helps someone to make a better decision and save the $$. jim.

Bought some M-22 recently, it did very well in my Ruger 22/45 LITE, no issues at all. It's OK in the 15-22 but I did have a couple of FTFs (but that could have been a magazine loading issue....stacked and not staggered). Went back to Winchester X that comes in the red 100 round slider boxes for the following match and the 15-22 was again flawless.....so I found ammo that works perfectly in my 15-22.
This is it, but this isn't the cheapest price out there:
Academy - Winchester Super-X® Lead Round-Nose .22 Long Rifle 40-Grain Rifle/Handgun Ammunition
I eventually went out and bought 5000 rounds of it I liked it so much!!!
At some point I'll try the M-22 ammo again in my 15-22, just won't do it at the Tactical .22 match.
I picked up some M22 a few days ago.
Runs no better or worse than the Fed Bulk in my 15-22 with minute of the 6" gong @ 40 yds no problem.
Also, ran 100% in my Walther P22 that to this date (7 yrs and 10,000 rds) has never had a single issue with any ammo other than the to be expect dud.
I will buy this again...along with bulk CCI mini mags and Federal.

Yep... What wOady said... I can't say it enough either... after all 22 ammo is cheap compared to any other ammo.
