Built this a couple of years ago. 22" match sporter barrel, fajen stock, weaver 2x7 scope, hammer/trigger kit.

Nice Rifle! I like the fajen stocks, I have 2 thumbholes. What kind of ammo do you use?

hey Cajungeo, up until I found this site, I shot cheap stuff. Found the American Eagle hp's to be consistent ( no duds) and fairly accurate. Now I'm thinking I gotta find something the gun really likes.

Ever tried CCI Velocitors? I've seen some 10/22's that really like 'em. They're the same case as regular 22lr but almost as hot as Stingers. Stingers have a longer case and some rifles don't like them, especially if you have a target rifle DO NOT USE THEM!

Sniper, was thinking of the Velocitors as something to try. Also heard good things about Win T22? The barrel does have the match chamber, and I believe even came with a warning not to use Stingers. No Kmarts around these parts. Will just go get a box of a few different brands and try them out. I'll also run them through the chrono and try to post.

I can save ya some dough. Don't bother with the Remington golden bullets. The std deviation was 34 on my chrony.

The k-mart dynapoints are same as Winchester super x hollow pt. Says so on the case head. They shoot very well in mine. Many like the German made Wolf match 22 LR. I'd try some, but they seem to be out of stock most places. They are cheap especially for match bullets.

Cajungeo, great idea for the rim thickness guage. I've had .22s get stuck in .223s while tumbling brass, just never put the two together. Made a matched batch tonight.
As for the Remmingtons, I can imagine a high sd. Never clocked them but have had/ heard many duds from the same box.

THAT ONE WILL GIVE YOU WOOD 4 REAL........
