American Eagle 22

[mrpike]

Any one using it and how good is it 40 gr copper coated is what I saw at wholesale sports ??

 

[dvn00]

i like it - my previous Rem 597 and 597 VTR preferred it over everything else - my Ruger could care a less what I feed it...

I like it too. Both the 40 gr and 38 gr AE ammo is good in my guns.

38 grain copper jacketed yes, 40 grain lead meh. Go with the copper jacketed stuff

I've been having trouble with AE 40gr lately, so yesterday at the range, I did some comparison where conditions and rifle were common:

300 rnds
-100 AE
-100 Blazer
-100 Federal

Federal= 0 feed/eject issues
Blazer= 1 FTF
AE= 4 FTF

This was through my SR-22, had cleaned/oiled it the day before.
I'm going to do the same thing again tomorrow and again next week without cleaning the rifle to see how the numbers add up..

My 10/22 and Beretta Neos both seemed to run this ammo just fine.
