    So last weekend I had a choice of Winchester 555 bulk pack or the Remington bulk pack.

    Too Tight to buy .22 in boxes of 50.

    I chose the Winchester and guess what?

    Bloody misfire after misfire in both my S&W41 pistol and my Remington 552 Speedmaster rifle

    I wish they'd bring back the ICI Rabbit board ammo that's all I can say.

    I've shot 1000's of the 333 or 555 Winchester stuff and thankfully have hardly had any misfires, plenty of subsonics though.
    Is it possible that it's the guns not the ammo to blame?
