Any opinions on Armscor 36 grain 22 LR ammo? Have you used it and did it function well in your firearm? Accuracy?

I have used it, works just fine and can be bought at a good price. Good plinking stuff instead of using up CCI or using cheap lead crap, I use their 22mag as well.

They also have the same grain but marked for bolt action, revolver and levers even cheaper.

Target sports is a bit more expensive.

I saw that and was wondering if the white box stuff would work in semi-autos. There doesn't seem to be a velocity listed for the white box ammo.

Yep I couldnt find the FPS but as stated it sounds like it may be similar to the aguila super maximum which is also stated to be recommended for bolt rifles. It does say recomended but it is 1700FPS (super max)and CCI stingers are 1640FPS so not really seeing an issue for semiauto other than keeping an eye on the buffer for wear.

It's actually cheaper from them directly, well advanced tactical (their seller) anyway.

I have used it....and it worked fine in my .22's.
That said....none of my .22's are new or semi auto.

It shot well ...accuracy was good and no failures to feed , fire or eject.

Is this the white/yellow box ammo or the white box bolt action only ammo?

Sorry I'm late. I dug into the ammo cabinet this morning and there are two different color boxes in there. Yellow and White ones. I think it was the White boxes that I shot as I believe they were first on the market.

The only squib round I ever had was with Armscor .22 ammo (white box). That was in a snub nose revolver. Sounded like there were some light loads in the box. I found it to be dirty and foul smelling in general. I vowed never to buy Armscor again. That was at least 10 years ago. Don't know if their quality has improved in recent years.

I test every 22LR I can find in my sr22 (not the best semi pistol)

I have not tried 36gr but will say that the Armscor 40gr round nose solid point is one of the few SKU's to make 100 bangs in a row without a dud.

Only about 50% of the cci line can make it to 60 rounds.
another good one is tac 22.

The worst by a large margin is Seller and Belot, every 3rd round failed. Horrible.

That's a great comparison. Thx for posting!

I thought it was interesting how one cartridge grouped 1/2" higher than the other.

The Armscor group looked just a little bit smaller.
