    some folks over at accurate shooter did some extensive accuracy testing several years ago with a huge quantity and variety of 22 ammo and surprisingly bulk winchester Dyna points came out somewhere near the top as far as accuracy.

    thanks for the reference to Accurate Shooters test. Premium ammo will, all things considered, be more consistent. But each .22 is unique and many will not benefit from the extra expense, or perform the same from brand to brand.

    "AMEN!"

    I think you can improve to some measurable extent most all the .22lr offerings out there by tuning & by improving the platform they are shot in....to do that, get ready for a trip into a deep rabbit'hole!

    One of the most educational trips I've made in years...way too much we all just take for granted these days.

    MostlyLeverGuns hit the nail on the head. "The Art of 22 Rimfire Accuracy" by Jim Calfee is a great book. Jim published many articles in "Precision Shooting" magazine years back before it went under. Costs about $48 from Barnes and Noble and is about 718 pages long. Just got my copy today and haven't read it yet. But it does cotain all his published articles plus just about anything you'd want to know about shooting and gunsmithing 22's. Frank
