la bala Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Tried some in my 452 some years ago, didnt rate them. You can only try a box, may work for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratbuster Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Yes, give them a try in your rifle and see how it performs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 If you don't expect to win any matches you may be alright. I always got misfires with them but then again have had the same with eley lately! U. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 .22 ammo is simply a question of try it and see. Price is no indication, the name thunderbolt sounds like its in the Stinger class. My rifle hated the ultra high velocity rounds but my mate loves them.

Rst1990 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I tried them in my cz and didn't get on well with them, cci velocitors worked very well in my rifle. I try to avoid high velocity non expanding rounds as they give too much penetration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bewsher500 Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 usually regarded as very bad, hence price real range of MV's misfires etc etc Remington actually had a recall have 200 here I cant give away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepasty Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 awful ammo, I wouldnt buy it if I'd ran out and thats all I could get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimfireboy Posted November 11, 2014 Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 I think it was only £2:35 a box last time I saw some, there's also the Cyclones which are the hollowpoint version. Not very good in my experience. Probably ok for a plinking session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
