hmr federal v shock 17gr

[snipers eye]

hi folks,anyone using these in their hmr,in particular 455 cz,and how do you find then in comparison to hornady?after a few opinions,ill post the reason for asking.

[rabbiter]

i got a box to try in my cz455,grouping was all over the place,so sticking with my hornady v max,gun just doesnt like them.........DAZ

[Konnie]

not tried them but fed my cz wincesters and the target looked like a watering can sprinkler now use hornady it likes them

I have tried federal, hornady and Winchester through my cz 455 and found the Winchester to be best the other two would throw a totally stray bullet about every 20 shots. Just shows that every rifle can like different ammo unless there was something wrong with the ammo but for now I will be sticking with the Winchester.

I used one box of federal v shock a couple of years ago, can't remember any problems with them. I found the cci 17grain tnt's hollowpoints extremely accurate in my 452 but mainly use Hornady and winchester ballistic tip.

Worth sticking with it.

Yes - using them in a Weihrauch 66J and loving them. Getting great groups at 75yds zero and that's with a nightsight so not great mag or resolution.

They are also knocking my foxes down like sacks of spuds.

Just bought a lot as it's starting to get rook-tastic down on the farm.

Its strange how different guns like different rounds..... my CZ452 is quite off with the Remington - missed more as i hit and i really wasn't happy with their knock-down on crows. Now on Hornady V-max and everything is keeling over B) my rifle also has a real thing for the CCI Gamepoints too....

yep its strange alright since all hmr ammno are made at the same factory,my 455 would not group that good at all,2"at best with hornady, a lot of flyers also ,with federal 1" groups with no flyers yet,but hornady works well in other hmr's,evan in 455's,guess gotta find what your gun likes
