.22 Ammo which one
By: BigBill Date: May 3, 2016, 5:37 am

I am in a bit of a pickle ref .22 ammo bought some CCI subsonic
40 grain for CZ 455 as its a new rifle and scope had to zero it
in,i am a competent enough rifle shot to know when i pull one
of a grouping, most of my shooting has been done with higher
powered ammo so not up to speed on .22.
Clamped rifle down to remove element of human error and tried
again the amount of drop on some rounds at 50 yards was 3 to 4
inches.Can anybody recommend a round that is more consistent
with CZ 455 have seen one review and it gave Eley rounds a good
write up any help would be welcome.

RWS Subsonics are a far better round. They're cleaner than Eley
as well.

I can fault Eley at all. Mate has the same rifle as mine
but his prefers the cci subs. It just means trying
different brands.

blame my shooting if not on target.

Make sure when clamping the rifle that you aren't putting any
pressure on the barrel. On some rimfire rifles there is a
dovetail notch cut out of the underside of the barrel to allow
fitment of a threaded block. The stock covers this threaded
block and a screw goes through the stock into the threaded block
which pulls the barrel towards the stock to prevent barrel
movement. If you clamp near this area you could affect the
barrel harmonics, and you won't get the accuracy you're after
from any brand of ammo.
You would probably be better using a combination of sandbags to
rest the stock on. This way the rifle won't move and the barrel
gets to float like it's supposed to.

The gun vice i use clamps butt, the stock sits in a v shape bean
bag then a velcro strap goes over stock close to breach this
give the stock room to
float.[URL=
