    Federal .22 550 Bulk Pack (Walmart)

    For those of us using AR .22's you know what Federal has done with the Bulk .22.
    It's very inconsistant and unreliable. Several duds are being sent out.
    I have written Federal 3 times in the past two years.
    It wasn't always that way. I used to recommend Fed Bulk. Now it has become a joke across several boards.
    I stated to Federal that I will suggest a boycott on Federal .22 Bulk Pack. Maybe if it doesn't sell, they will take a look.
    No real reason to buy it anyhow. It's crap.

          I'm with chickenfried. Don't buy the Automatch either.
          Never initiate force against another. That should be the underlying principle of your life. But should someone do violence to you, retaliate without hesitation, without reservation, without quarter, until you are sure that he will never wish to harm - or never be capable of harming - you or yours again.

              Use to buy it all the time, but it has been Junk for awhile.
              I buy the CCI Mini-Mags, Win. 333 Bulk, and Auto Match, all shoot great

                Nope. Not anymore. Especially when you get it. from Sacramento area Walmarts. Don't buy it there

                    CCI minimags. is some of the best .22 to shoot.... $$ but reliable.

                      If you think Federals are bad, try picking up some Aquilla ammo. OMG, I've never seen so many FTF's in all my life.

                        I've had more issues with the Remington Gold personally.
                        CCI is the most consistent I've used.

                          I hope so too, spread the word. Boycott Federal bulk packs at Walmarts, especially at the Carson location.

                            I think you should boycott all ammo. Leaves more for me.

                              Oh crap, now you tell me! I have recently accumulated 20,000 rounds of this stuff. Well, I guess I can join the boycott for a year or so.

                              Seriously, I've had no trouble at all with the Federal bulk packs. Sorry you've had different results.
