    CCI 40gn Maxi Mags are the best I've tried in my CZ 452 - 2E

    Hornady Varmint Express 22 MAG 30gr V-MAX most accurate in 3 different rifles: Martini, Norinco, Weihrauch.

    I like the CCI Game points , but they are now rocking horse sh1t. So have gone to the Aguila flat points , a bit hard and not as accurate but they are consistent on the goats.

    G'day,

    I've been using Hornady V-Max, 30gr. in my Weihrauch 66P with good success out to about 140 yards on foxes and hares here in Australia. If shot placement is good there aren't too many 'runners'.

    I have been using Winchester SuperX 40gr, they are pretty good on the rabbits.
    Has anyone used subsonic .22wmr, would you recommend?
