    Very good bullet. Very accurate for anyone I know who's used it, too.

    No Federal coming in this year according to my RFD.
    I found it OK in my .243
    Of course if you don't want to chance it let me know and I will use it for you;)

    might throw in an order with the dealer for a few extra boxes so, just in case, but I'd be wary enough of people saying that. That said, finding quality .22 ammo these days is like panning for gold.

    I know, most of what I hear from RFD's I take a reasonable shovel full of salt with.
    BUT this year I haven't seen any Federal yet, and it's getting mighty close to the time when a man would possibly be needing some 100 grainers.

    very accurate
    only use 4 or 5 a season though

    I've been using them for a couple of seasons. They work for me. Last year I couldn't get them til the middle of September then they were everywhere.
