Thread: Rem Bucket of bullets

Hi Guys ,

Just thought I would post my initial feelings on the Rem bucket of bullets , 22lr , its absolute rubbish , I would say buy some else , there are offer 22lr ammo at a similar price , or a little dearer .

Groups looked like shotgun patterns at 50yds , tried it thru 2 different rifles , a Annie & a old Toz17 , the Annie has a 24 inche tube & the Toz , a 12 inche tube , in both some shots where going supersonic , & some subsonic , thought it may suit a certain barrel lenght , but looks like it is very inconsistant , no matter what barrel lenght you are running .

In simple terms , its unusable , and it really dosnt matter how cheap it is .

Maybe some one else has had better luck ?


Later Chris

Dundee seems to be doing alright with his.

@Dundee reckons his bucket is good
Personally this is the first thing I've ever agreed with you on Chris

Can't complain here they shoot bloody good with a Stirling model 14p bolt action. First four rounds out of the bucket was a rabbit,starling and plover and a hare. Also sold 100 rounds to my boy and I made a profit

I will do some tests on targets when I get time soon and see how they shoot as a groups but in the meantime I happy with knocking off pests every day with my bucket full of fun.

I have ammo thats only a few cents dearer , and its like night & day , different , so will stay with what I am already using & happy with .

I've shot a bit of it. Few FTF's and pretty inconsistent POI. Its batchy cheap stuff though so you will likely get good batches and bad batches.

My Jw15 shoots about 1-1.5inchs at 50meters with almost anything i shoot. haven found anything better than the rest. but never did group testing with CCI mini mags or subs.

the bucket is no worse than Winchester super x or super speed or Fiocchi In group sizes. But i have noticed a few that went subsonic. With a semi it would probably be really bad.

Try some Australian made power point and some cci.

My jw15 loves aussie powerpoints and subs

They seem to generally.

only feeding my 10/22 aussie powerpoint now, tried a brick of remmington subs, ended up shooting it all at cans with a lot of swearing at the stuff in the process.
