.22LR - Federal Range Pack - Qty 800 40gr 1200FPS

Ive shot a ton of them and never had any problems. Not match-grade or anything, but misfires are rare- maybe one dud out of every 3-400. With Winchesters I usually get a dud every 1-200.

I wouldn't expect much for consistency but it's good enough to hit soda cans at 50 yards.

Ive had poor experiences with bulk federal .22 but I’ve bought a few 50rnd boxes of it a few weeks back and now that Ive tried it I’m kicking myself for not getting the 800 pack. I was getting groups smaller than a fist at 100yds. Nothing amazing but 2-3” isn’t bad. 2 duds in the box of 50 ,they wouldn’t fire with repeated strikes . I’d say you could do worse on quality for .22.

edit: shot from a stock 10-22 with a cheap 3-9x40 on it

Back in the 1990s I knew folks who lived on farms who bought the 40 round boxes of Federal because it was really good ammo. For protection of livestock from predators and hunting game for food, they liked it and had a high opinion..

Me and my son, CCI MiniMags are the go to ammo for .22s. Before that were the Winchester Super X 37gr hollowpoints 1360 fps. The Winchester 40gr hollowpoints jammed a lot in my .22s.

I have a CBC 7022 rifle with four 10 rd magazines and a heavily modified-to-fit Mossberg 702 25 rd magazine that are near 100% with Federal Hi-velocity hollowpoint.

During the 2016 ammo drought Federal Auto Match turned out to be (a) available and (b) really good in most of my and my family's .22 rifles and pistols.

Federal Cartridge Co. has consistently been good at keeping up a good balance of price and reliability (in my experience).
