The TNT's work great out of a handgun too! Surprisingly enough that has a Gold Dot bullet. I haven't seen the CCI's in a while but Federal has the TNT's my guess is it's the same thing with a different brand name.
Great video! I always love seeing more .22 content of any kind. One thing I will add is with rimfire especially, companies use different lubricants on their projectile. In my experience you need to fire about 10 shots through a barrel of that specific ammo before shooting for a group to "season" the barrel to that particular lube. This is especially true in non-plated ammo but it absolutely applies to plated/jacketed ammo as well. I completely understand you had a limited amount of ammo on hand and I'm super thankful for the video you produced for us! Just something for ya to roll around in your brain 😁. Thanks again for your work!
A lot of airgun pellet manufacturers makes sample boxes, so that You do not have to by 250-500pcs and then experience lackluster accuracy. Wouldn't that be nice if the ammo maker do likewise, for .22lr/.22mag 10 of each loading, the same for handgun ammo, hunting ammo would 5pcs of each be sufficient to checkout accuracy?
That would be an awesome idea for a retailer to do. They could repackage maybe 5 rounds of several loads as a sample to see what shoots best in their specific rifle. 👍
There are not a lot of 22 Mag comparisons out there. This was especially good to watch. I've never considered 22 Mag as a target round, at least in comparison to 22 LR, but these results show it can be excellent at 50 yards! I have a Ruger Precision in 22 Mag that I don't shoot a lot. I'm going to buy some CCI TNT and give it a try! THAT was an amazing group! Thanks for the great video!
Love these ammo comparisons. Gives us some really good info. Thanx sir for your continued efforts. 😁...@8:03....that CCI TNT is a between the eyes of a groundhog at 50 yds.
These rim fire mags round are what a lot of people out in the country use for vermin control, like what you grab when your chickens are getting attacked.
Check the empty case on the dynapoint. I have had them rupture with regularity. Way too nice a gun to be shooting dynapoint in. I did not expect to see such a wide variety of ammo shoot as good as it did. Would like to see what it can do at 100 yards. This one made my day. Thanks.
My 22 mag loved federal ammo using 33 grain Sierra bullets. Unfortunately they dropped it for a different bullet. CCI shoots like that for me out of my savage 93 heavy barrel. Excellent video with good selection of ammo. Keep up the good work!
Never shot a 22 mag. Always figured the weights would have started at 40 and went up. Looks like they all performed pretty good out of that fine rifle!
22WMR is a fantastic all around round. Plinking, target, hunting, defense. The variety of available ammunition is also a HUGE benefit depending on what purpose you're using it for.
I prefer CCI. For things like groundhogs I like a HP, for things I plan on eating like squirrels I prefer the total metal jacket as in my experience there is less damage to the meat. I know I can use a 22lr which causes less damage however I have a Savage 24. It is 22 Magnum over 3" 20 gauge. It is nice because I can use the 20ga for aerial targets and the 22 Mag lets me stretch out to distance. I have never tried as as many different rounds as you did in your video.
Man! That rifle doesn't care one bit about what you feed it! Groups 'em all good, and every load was within about an inch or less from thecenter of the cross! You can grab any ammo and know you're gonna hit what you're aiming at! THAT SHOOTER IS A KEEPER! 🎯🎯
Beautiful rifle, on my wish list of ‘retirement guns’ to get before too long. Maybe in a .17 HMR though, as they seen to be more inherently accurate than the .22 Mag., and one of those rifles is all about the accuracy. Great video! P.S…. Love Warne rings and bases, have the QR setup on a couple of my rifles. Solid, quality stuff.
Ive always had better luck , the closer to the action and barrel the scope ,I can get it . I've a ruger 77 22mag and a 77 22 lr and a few more in deer hunting calibers , think something is loose on my 22 mag or the scope is bad . When I feel better, ill lock tight all the mounts and diagnose whats happening
It's hard finding a good selection on .22 mag these days. I've been trying to stock up on a few different brands to see what my gun likes the best. When I bought the gun brand new it had a big sticker on it that said if I shoot anything less than 40 grain ammo it void the warranty. I can find a alot of 30 and 40 grain rounds but not many 45 or 50 grain. They are always out of stock.
I’m anxious to see which ammo my CZ 457, 22 WMR Canadian version will like with lighter barrel ..There are no reviews at the range for this model unless I missed some !!
Really fun video indeed 👍 I picked the CCI 40FMJ would be best overall. However the CCI TNT 30 & that Norma surprised me as well. Note, I shoot that Win. Dynapoint in my revolvers mostly because I've never found reliable precision accuracy in any of my rifles but works in a pinch 👍
Have been considering the CZ ! And, now seeing it performed with a few select mfrs. Rounds, it definitely has me ready to squeeze the trigger ! ( no pun intended ) ! I am considering the magnum rounds for a secondary back-up gun ! If you had to select one of, for both a hunting round, and a self-defense round, which would be your first choice WhoooDeee ? Excellent job out of your CZ !
People! When Who Tee Who says that he just got rifle sighted in……….. that means the rifle is a TACK DRIVER although I am sure that Who Tee Who could probably take an inexpensive combination of rifle scope ammunition sling and figure out how to MAKE it shoot tight groupings wether it likes or not!! 😎Enjoy!
I have warne rings on most of my rifles. Seem to be very good rings! Haven’t tried the Norma yet but I will! Hard to beat the CCI maxi mags tho! Should try the 100 yard shooting with this .22 mag. Would be interesting! Love that rifle, by the way!
This was a very good video here in aus we don't get as big of a range in ammo I used to always run cci maxi but have recently switched to Winchester superx but I really want to try the tnts they would be awsome here for fox and hares
I've also got a cz (457 i think) 22LR that preférs middle of the road stuff iin terms of weight and velocity. I really like the rail on yours but looks like it sets the overall height of the scope a little too high
Awesome video! Very thorough. I love those cci's. I have always had good luck with them. They feed in in anything you can put them in, and they're always consistent. My go to rimfire ammo!
🇦🇺😎👍Hey brother, happy Friday……that’s a nice Rig👍…..Remington magnum rimfire was my guess….brother you got some great results🏁….great test mate, good science, catch you on the next one
Thank you Who Tee Who, I’ve got a couple of these brands of ammo for my rough rider and 22mag bing bang. I keep one close by on the farm for rats, coyotes or other pests that come by from time to time, had to put down a sick fox two years ago, two days later my next door neighbor got bitten by a rabid fox on his porch. Farming in the mountains it’s good to keep a boo lot slinger in reach. 💪🏽🎥💯👍🙏🏻
2 in the same hole with 1 flyer is why you should always do a 5 shot group. I know, as a shooter I hate to do it cause Im afraid it will open up with more shots but the truth of it is........its a better test........also similar barrel temps. Good video. No Hornady in the test?
Sorry, I missed the chat. Going through a very difficult time. Your videos take off a bit of the pressure. Jesus carries me ,or I'd be on the ground. Thanks again for all your efforts. 👍🙏😎
Imagine the bull barrel let the higher velocity shoot true. I'd like to see Norma in a variety of calibers tested for actual velocity, the box label always seem a bit high. The powders burn pretty clean, maybe less hot and slow down barrel burn
I always suspect the round. I pulled the slugs on a few hundred .22lr and the powder was extremely inconsistent, from 1/10th of the shell filled and up to all the way.
Great video! I have the exact same rifle. Mine prefers the HORNADY 30gr V max and I have shot a lot of different ammo through it. 2nd best on mine is the Federal 30gr HP
Love the test. I have done lots of testing and the CCI A22 loading in 35gr soft point is by far the most accurate and consistent in my guns. Thanks for the testing and great to see a variety of ammo available again.
My old marlin lever action shoots the best 50 yard groups with the lead free CCI and the Hornady ftx prints the best at 100 yards. The bulk 40 grain CCI shoots real good too.
Yes I call em 22wmr............. youngster ! still jelly of your CZ's and that Weatherby beauty I'm betting the 40grn offerings do really well......CCI or Norma 🤷♂️
