FIOCCHI Shooting Dynamics Ammo 22 Long Rifle 40 Grain CP RN is what I'm thinking about. I need to stock up on some rimfire ammo, and the usual suspects are out of stock - WSP, Can. Tire, Wally World and LGS. How does it feed, FTF, FTE, and accuracy in general.

Does anyone have any experience with this stuff?

Thx
 
The Standard Velocity Fiocchi I had is waxy. In the cold you can hardly push it into the chamber and during the summer it is like oil.
I am looking for some of their Match grade and currently have a dealer who will be talking with the Canadian Supplier.
Beyond that I have no idea where it is coming from.
 
Here is where the need to try the ammo in your gun becomes obvious. A grade in a navy blue box(Mexican made I believe) was garbage but their M320 was very good but is almost unobtainable. There are competing brands that are more readily available so the aggravation of sourcing more of the M320 is not worthwhile.
 
I had really good luck with the accuracy of the blue box std velocity in my CZS, Anschutz and my built up 1022s. I haven't got the high velocity to do well in anything though.
 
I met Tony from North Vancouver at the range on Monday. He claims to be the Canadian Distributor. He claims to have RWS as well but could not give a price on either.
One of the Silhouette shooters used the 320 mps brand at one time. Tony can give a better price if I took a case. Need a guarantee it will work in my "pigs".
A couple of sources bought from him a few years ago after some water damage . . . full price for Eley Tenex that was unreliable.
He knows when our bench rest matches are so perhaps he will show this coming Saturday.
 
Bought a brick for $40. 10/22 with dlask barrel, thumb hole stock,kidd trigger and hawke sf 4x12 scope. Ten shots covered with a dime. And ten for ten on thumbtacks. At 25 yards at the indoor range but excited to try it this summer outside. I would buy more but can't find it right now. 40 gr rn lead. I like them. My 2 cents

I was skeptical about running this ammo as it wasn't a brand that I knew much about, but my local Cdn Tire had bricks on sale for a reasonable price so I purchased a few . My S&W 622 which is very finicky, just loves the stuff. Not a single FTF or FTE after 2000 + rounds. I would purchase some again but have not come across any since last summer.
