Went to Walmart this weekend and found some ammo ( 45 , 22, 3030). they had just gotten a shipment in before I got there.
They had some Remmington golden _____ 22 ammo and I purchased it.
What do yall see as the best / better 22 ammo. ( please not the ones available.) Winchester has several versions as do others. Whats the difference.

Thanks

Can anyone recommend a "standard velocity" 22.I'm a little confused by the nomenclature.I've seen high velocity,hyper velocity and hi speed.S&W suggested using a standard velocity 22 in their model 22A.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I was looking on the auction side for a case of 22 to shoot in my 10/22 and gsg5.I mainly shoot cans and rabbits. Any recommendation?

Anyone know where one can buy Winchester Supreme, 22LR ammo? They say it comes in a black box. Thanks

O.K. I have shot plenty of different rounds of 22, but which ammo is acutally the fastest and quietest ammo out there? It's easy to find one that is really quite and one that is really fast, but finding one that is both is tricky.

All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand.

This stuff?



This source appears to be out of stock, but they could probably backorder some for you: http://tinyurl.com/4x8xqkg

Any local gunstore that stocks any other Winchester ammo could probably get you some, if you ask them to.

This looks like Winchester's version of the CCI Stinger. Cabelas sells them for around $6.00 a box. I like them.

Yeah, seems like there are multiple versions of these "hypervelocity" .22LR rounds now.

There are different variations in bullet weight, but most are using slow burning powders and 30-33 grain light weight bullets to pick up extra velocity. Many (but not all) use the longer-than-normal cases to stuff in more powder.

Aguila's "Supermax" ammo is basically the same thing (though faster). I've shot a bunch of this and you really do notice the extra "zing" when shooting it. Unfortunately, my experience with it is that its not been super-accurate, partly precluding what would seem to be its natural use as a sort of substitute for a .22 magnum for 100 yard-type small game hunting.

Remington has its "Yellow Jacket", again similar.

At one point Winchester came out with a similar round using a NON-lead bullet, too.

And there are probably others.

For Pday, getting back to the actual question, Winchester "Supreme" is the line name. The specific brand is called "Xpediter" and you might have a bit more luck finding them locally if you specifically ask for them using THAT name.

Other potential sources? Take your pick:

I also found probably another 3-4 places that list them online, but show them as out of stock. Not sure what that means, other than that supply is probably somewhat limited.
