Lots of shots were going supersonic and hitting very high.

There were reports of problems with 2020-21 batches from all over the place and it was discussed on Rimfire Central. A couple of other guys on this forum also had problems and I think someone mentioned it again the other day?

I don’t know if CCI has got on top of this problem yet.

Must of sorted it, definitely the most consistent .22lr ammo now.

Hollow point for hunting, solids are head shot only as they pencil through.
