Hi everyone

My question is simple i'v got a marlin 25M in 22 mag. & I want to buy a brick of ammo for it.

What are your recommendation for the best ratio price/power/accuracy,

Thanks

Never seen bulk packs or low cost deals on 22 mag . They are all pretty much around the same price .

I usually but it buy the box (50). CCI MaxiMag works well for me.

I have had excellent accuracy and downright impressive performance on small thin skinned critters out of my Marlin with the Winchester Supreme and the Remington Premier. They cost a couple of bucks more per box than the standards but are well worth it IMHO.

If you post this in the rimfire forum, you'll probably get additional answers, too!

I like using CCI ammo in my rimfires.

Don't buy in bulk until you've tried a box of as many brands as you can to find the ammo your rifle shoots best.

I prefer CCI ammo as well. So can you buy it in bricks anywheres?

CCI maximag, CCI maximag TNT, CCI VMAX, Remington accutip and Winchester cheapy from TSC works well out of my savage. I manage 1'' at 100yds with all the CCI ammo and Remington accutip...winchester ammo works nice for the price I paid $6/box from TSC on sale.....good for plinking.

Follow this advice because 22 mag rifles are much more ammo brand sensitive than any other rifle I have shot. FS

"...22 mag rifles are much more ammo brand sensitive..." Applies to any rimfire. Applies to centrefire if you're not reloading too.

Winchester Super-X 40 grain Hp's always were the best in my rifle and good thing is these are among the cheapest to buy.
