If I’m not worried about misfires or other hang-ups, or just want to waste ammo, I’ve got some 22LR Federal something or other that I shoot. When I absolutely, positively want things to go right, I use the CCI Mini-Mag copper round nose. I stopped experimenting when I hit on that.

I’m gonna have to try the CCI Tactical and the Aguila 60gr. The 60gr sounds VERY interesting. I’ll try it in my daughter’s SR22.

Thanks!

The Aguila tends to leave a casing in the action occasionally in a 1022. But it runs flawlessly in the SR22 I use.

The CCI tactical has more 'nose' before the first flair down toward the casing than the mini-mag. This feeds flawlessly in my 1022 and every other 'tool' I've tried it in. The CMMG conversion units for AR's has a feed ramp! Wish the 1022 actions had such. Just re-barreled my 1022 with a 16 inch threaded. I had cut the stock off and attached a six position shotgun stock to it years ago, so it is 'tacticool'.

Attached a sloped lower rail (they were made to attach to the angled plastic fore-ends of the AR carbines)to which I attached a laser and an angled foregrip. With a good red dot on the top rail it is an awesome home defense tool.

Some of the BX25 mags have to be 'tuned up' though. Some arrive with the metal feed slightly off center, tilted to one side. Take it apart and straighten it and they run flawlessly.

That Federal is probably their ‘510’ offering. I bought 4000 at $.04 per round last year. I shoot it out of my GSG and use it only for range time with plinkers because it tends to have dead rounds! Shoots accurately out of my Henry lever toy though. My garage floor is littered with copper from my indoor range for .22 shooting. Utilized rubber mulch for bullet traps and backstop.
