They go "bang" most of the time. If you are shooting in a competition, no way. If you are just plinking or hunting tree rats, then why not. I have shot them quite often @ $15/brick.
I have gone through two bricks and I really like the stuff. Very few duds, quite accurate and only about 16$ a brick ( unless you buy it at Canadian tire for 34$ a brick
). I like the fact that the bricks are made of 10, 50 round boxes instead of a big square box with a scoopful of ammo dumped into it, like most bricks ( including thunderbolt if bought at Canadian Tire). The bullets are not copper plated and the ammo seems to be quite dirty. Overlal, I am very happy with it. I plan to stock up next time im at Ellwood Epps.

I have a very low opinion of any Remington 22lr stuff...Dirty, misfires, inaccurate....Perhaps I`m unlucky... I have been using Winchester Wildcat for about 18 years...Clean, accurate, and I can`t remember the last time I had a misfire....Used to get a brick from Le Barons for $12.00, now it`s $20.00..So sad...
