Fed auto match

[odfairfaxsub]

Shot it in my cz452 lux at 25 and 40 yards today. Great great stuff. Boom every time, consistent noise levels, 1/4-1/2 in open sight groups. Only one neg....very dirty. Didn't affect groups at all. Also functioned in my 10-22 w out a hitch. Wasn't as accurate as Remington but I'll blame that as I shot only one group of it

[tazman]

I have been using it in my pistols for over a year now. Excellent accuracy and function.
Never had problems with it being dirty.

[odfairfaxsub]

Yeah I'm not sure why it happens w some and not others. I compared it to rem gold bullet and rem is actually cleaner than a ocd persons kitchen counter and I thought...this is suppose to be the dirtiest stuff?

[wrench man]

Some guys seem to like the stuff?, it's been hands down the WORST! most INACCURATE!! **** I've ever shot, and the $$$$ they get for it, I'll NEVER purchase it EVER again!

I am having trouble finding ammunition that doesn't shoot well in my semi-auto pistols. I have a S&W 22a and a Ruger MarkII competition and they both like everything I have fed them so far.
Nothing shoots poorly in them.
Go figure.

[odfairfaxsub]

The worst ever ammo for consistent noise level is Remington gold bullet but shoots relatively well in my 10-22 it shoots great spite the fact. The Remington shoots somewhat acceptable. Acceptable enough to want to shoot the rest through the gun.

Auto to match as consistent in noise level as it was wasn't as accurate in the 10-22 but further testing would be required to find out its accuracy.

auto match was almost as dirty as armscor lol but way more confidence in function, noise and cleaner lol.

Automatch acted like match grade ammo in my Cz hand on the bible. I believe my results would have been replicated w another high end version of a bulk ammo. Maybe it's bc of the toned down velocity, maybe the non plated bullet, maybe bc it's a solid.

Some swear by it and some swear at it. I found it dirty and the accuracy was less than desirable out of my rifles. I thought the usage of the word "match" did not apply.

[odfairfaxsub]

Was not match grade in my 10-22. I feel slightly comfortable saying that bc I went from Remington to cci mini mag in that ruger and noticed the mini mag as a bullet cutter!!! Auto match opened up comp to Remington.


i feel comfortable saying match grade in my cz

It's as good as I have found for the wifes Henry but just so so in the rest of my 22s. Most 22s are picky.

I own six 22 rimfire rifles and none will shoot automatch . I have about 2000rds that I would love to get rid of.

[odfairfaxsub]

Hey pm me w what you want for it shipped

Post it on the bulletin board at any gun club in your area and you'll probably have a call waiting for you by the time you drive home.

[Blanket]

It started out pretty good years ago but has fell in with the bulk **** from Remington and Winchester. To bad Wolf kicks the old standards to the curb. Glad I have a bunch of CCI and Eley

[odfairfaxsub]

Yeah. Luckily if you have ammo that doesn't work in one gun...it sometimes works in another.

just noticed something w the auto match ammo. I shot Apx 100 rounds and I have small carbon/lead droplets that formed one inch away from the chamber. Doesn't affect accuracy in least bit yet but norm not something that happens w a lot of other copper coated ammo.

ill still shoot it and clean when it starts opening up a tad bit but so far hasn't gotten worse

[Earlwb]

It seems to work Ok in my Beretta Neos .22 semi-auto pistol. I didn't have any problems shooting the gun with it. The gun seemed to like the stuff.

[shtur]

I mostly shoot it in my rifle. It's not very good in any of my handguns, and just marginally okay out of a longer rifle barrel.

[sandman228]

ive been shooting it out of my new m&p 15 22 accuracy and grouping is decent ,it is dirty though and after a couple mags full I can count on a jam or 2 here and there .

[odfairfaxsub]

I like it so much that I ordered another case from the same lot off my guy. 7 cent a piece for a known thing is a good thing. Shoots out the 452 lux and 455 full stock just great. Not so great from 10-22 but functions the gun way better than rem

[odfairfaxsub]

Well just went out and bought two diff lot numbers of auto match to see if it's as in inconsistent from lot to lot as people say.

My lux norm shoots 1/4-1/2 ish in
my full stock shoots 1/2-3/4 in Normally

if if it doesn't rain tomorrow might update my love for this ammo

[odfairfaxsub]

Ok I'm not sure how many people are really interested but I had to do this for myself to be confident in my purchases going forward

Notes.

1hk033 and 1hk018 had looser bullets like rotatable bullets w no side to side play. Seemed like never affected groups

1fk034 had no bullet movement at all and bullets had superior finish quality

all three lots had simular lube application

all gun shots sounded the same w no desernable noise reduction

seemed like kick and performance was same throughout lots

i saw no reason to not be confident buying from whatever store and whatever lot this year. Maybe the probs are of old and my guns seem to like it. Some guns just do not really like this ammo for sure including my 10-22 and I would never purchase for my ruger
