Rem subsonic ammo?

[Red9]

Per title,
Anyone use this stuff? Found some for 5 bucks a box, and the 10/22 actually shoots the stuff. Havent tried it yet in the marklll.
Thoughts?

I've shot a bit of it through my 10/22. I haven't measured any groups, but it did well. No complaints.

I use it in my Single Ten.

Ran well in my custom 10/22. Nice and quiet. accurate.
Had some FTF in some of my Semi-handguns. S&W Mod 41 and Walther P22 had issues if I remember. Prefer standard velocity ammo. I used to buy a lot of this for shooting in my back yard.
Haven't shot any .22 lately. don't have much supply.

Was 5 bucks a box ok?

[Garv]

Box of 100 yes, 50 no.

For 50rds or 100rds?
If 50, no deal. Right now good supply of CCI std vel that is subsonic (1070ft/sec).
Going for ~$10/100 and it is good stuff. Will work in my 10/22 and zero failures to go "Bang" and cycle. Shot 1000s of rounds.

5bucks/50 rounds. I bought 6 boxes....just because. Where do i find ammo local? I hate to order online. I find it easier to buy 100 bucks a time vs $$$ at one time.

I like it, I have cases of it. mr rabbit recently posted on his experiences shooting it in a Sig Mosquito, where it ran decently well with occasional fail-to-extract (see his thread here).

My Marlin 70 sometimes fails to cycle it, but that's not really a big surprise. However it really shines in my CZ 452. Holds 1 MOA to at least 100 meters (the farthest I've shot it). I haven't had any misfires yet.

Cheapest I've seen it recently is 0.08 / rd. At $5/50 you did OK. Anybody seeing it for a nickel each, please let me know...

Interesting to read about, have not tried the rem subs. I've used the win. "superx" subs for at least 20 years & like it.

I think most of the sub-sonic stuff doesn't works in a semi-auto pistol and says so in the ammo description. I know I had some 22 match ammo (Eley I think) that was down around 850fps and I had all kinds of FTEs in my Mark III. It was fairly new at the time so it might work better now but I try to stay with ammo up in the 1000fps range.

Remington Sub-Sonic

I know I shoot Remington Target out of a number of "Oldies but Goodies" including my Cplt pre-woodsman woodsman and a Mossberg 44. For the most part, it feeds well seems to be consistant and continues to be a go to ammo if I can find it at WalMart

I'm a fan of Remington SS. Curiously, cycles both my 10/22 and SR22. I haven't noticed significantly improved accuracy out of my scoped American Rimfire using this versus Standard velocity ammo, but then again, I'm not that great of a shot.

I know that traditionally, target shooting with .22s is done with subsonic ammo in order to avoid stability issues caused by a projectile dropping from supersonic to subsonic speeds.

This shoots very well in my CZ 452. I am down to 140 rounds of this however I have a lot of SK and CCI standard velocity.

Works real good with a silencer. You don't even get the sonic boom as the bullet traveles downrange,
