Remington "Bucket-o-Bullets" .22 - Is it good stuff?

[skneub]

My son's GSG 1911 22 runs them just fine

this is good to know.
Thinking about buying one

CZ 455 and GSG 9-22 work just fine. Have put 60 through the CZ and 100 through the GSG. Only one dud with the CZ and one FTE and a dud with the GSG.

The only problem is it is dirty, it shoots well thought

Dirty doesn't matter unless you have a semi. They are fairly consistent for accuracy in any bolt or lever and will never jam. Never had a dud in any bucket.

Here is my last 25 yard target in clobbs thread this was with my gsg and shooting the buckets,I'm sure most could do better.

I get Winchester 555s for 24.95 /555 rounds- aside from being sh ammo the Winchester stuff goes bang with great regularity- remingon- any Remington, not so much

I have the exact opposite experience. The winchester is jam city, while the remington worked pretty damn good in a fubar'd 715t.

Nice , I was tempted to buy a pink one for 299 today..
But I kinda spent to much on reloading stuff lol

I must have got a pretty good one. I've shot thousands of rounds through my 715T. Might have a couple of FTF every hundred rounds.

Bull!! Nothing can get a 715T to work lol

Better then The lowest but not the best I buy it still

 

[DT741]

Perfect for plinking !

Accurate enough to hit my gopher pop-up target (cabelas) with no miss at a 100m

Do tell..............where?

 

[ShawnC6]

If I buy it, I have a choice of CanTire at $110 or WSS at $100 which is about 7 cents per round. What can I get that is better stuff for same price?

Cabelas Calgary is $90
Bass pro cross iron is $80

Both for bucket o bullets

It runs miles better in my GSG 1911 22 than the Winchester bulk boxes (222,333,555). Other than the odd FTF which usually go bang the second time around it's all I buy now as I can't find any better priced ammo that runs better in my GSG.

wal-mart Calgary when they have it

 

[MikeD81]

Every Walmart in Calgary I have been to had SFA for ammo. Which location do you go to?

Not the one in Grande Prairie...same thing...Must be a wally world thing lol

 

[Lead hammer]

My 10/22 likes them just fine. Not as accurate as Winchester super speed hp's though.

 

[RobertMcC]

B O B is all the club buys for ammo. They use it to bring in new shooters, run safety orientation. Anyone that complains bulk 22 is dirty clearly don't shoot rimfire that much. Thunderbolts or any lead bullet 22 are the most dirtiest 22 out there.

Bought a few buckets on sale when Bass Pro opened up in Niagara. Not had any issues so far. Not the most accurate out of my guns but at the same time not the worst. After all it is what it is... a bucket of bullets.
