    Hi @Attila ...
    I hear what you are saying re 22 mag accuracy but did my research on the rifle I bought and they are reputed to be very accurate .
    There is a vid on youtube of the ozzie reviews and he tested the same rifle with five different ammo brands/types and found them all accurate enough , but two of them in particular were shooting sub moa at 100 mtrs.
    Unfortunately the federal he tested in 50 gr which was the most accurate I can't find any for sale locally at the moment apparently due to the ammo shortages but do have a box of the winchester 34gr which came second in his test to try . Also grabbed a box of the heavier 45 gr winchester in lieu of the fed 50 to see how that goes.
    And just for shits and giggles grabbed a box of 45 gr subs to try as well.....
    Just can't get out for another week or so to have a few shots but will report how it goes here when I get the chance to try them out.
    I'm hoping the 45 gr (non subs) will be accurate for head shots on goats......
    Fingers crossed.
