A coated bullet to keep lead off your fingers when loading, a high speed 36 grain bullet, and CHEAP. I love this stuff. Accuracy is only so-so, and the tiny hollow point doesn’t look too functional, but this stuff kills, it’s cheap, and it’s available. Of the bulk ammo tested in our 2014 22LR shootout, it was middle of the road accurate.

I don’t have too much to say about bulk ammo packs, but I do like the plated bullet on these. While unplated was clearly the way most match ammo goes, the waxy lubes and lead contamination you get on your fingers just isn’t worth it when blasting cans or gophers. Cheap, plated ammo has its place.
