The Kilwell subs are made for Kilwell by Winchester. They have a Win headstamp but are a different weight projectiles to both the Win subs.
Kilwell shoot stunningly in one of my 22s. However lately they have changed the brew/projectile weight/colour of the box and some say the latest don't shoot as well as the old. I have a large quantity of the old (blue box) fortunately.

I cant believe nobody has said try a few different types and find what your rifle likes the best rather then saying what shoots best in their rifle.
The other thing about hv rounds is that when they are traveling towards the target they slow and if their speed goes under the speed of sound they tend to wobble a little and you lose accuracy but you don't have that problem. Once you know how much hold over is required for certain distances then it becomes easy to shoot out to 100m+. Subsonic hollow points expand really well on impact so do a lot of damage when hunting small game.

Isn't that what Survy suggested?
