.22 LR Russian Ammo? Seen this?


Recommended Posts

There are a few threads about the stuff on the rimfirecentral.com ammo board....nobody had anything good to say about the steel cased green boxes of the Junior ammo.

+1 on not liking the steel case in green box stuff. However, I have had some good results with light yellow box, brass case stuff from same mfg. Only dislike about that stuff was the greasy lube on the bullets, but accuracy was good.

Anyone ever shot this kind of ammo? I'm possibly buying 6000 rounds of it but know nothing about it. It is .22 LR from Russia. The price is reasonable. Any suggestions?

About 10 years ago this stuff passed through the bullseye world. It was reliable stuff (if the grease didn't foul things up) but the saying was that there was a 5 in every box. Some of those things would just veer off course and cost a lot of points. It wouldn't affect a steel shooter as much.

i bought a brick of that stuff in the mid 1990s and it worked OK in my Ruger Mk2. im not sure how much $ they save with a steel case on a 22 though..

Well, I'm still not sure what to do. I offered him $150 for 6000 and he's ready to sell. But, not sure if it's worth it at this point.
