BEST hunting subsonic ammo? Eley Subsonic 38grs HP, Tikka T1X
Discover the Best Subsonic Ammunition on the Market Today
I firmly believe that this is the best subsonic ammunition available today. During today's test, despite the challenging wind conditions, Eley Subsonic delivered impressive groupings. I used it with my Tikka T1X, paired with a Meopta Optika 6 scope in 5-30x56. The setup also featured a Spuhr mount and a Norwegian-made GRS Berserk stock, perfect for a true Gunviking!
If you’re in search of reliable, high-performance subsonic ammo, I highly recommend grabbing a pack or two and testing this out yourself. I doubt you'll be disappointed.
And, don't forget to subscribe to my channel. Please comment if you have tried this ammo yourself.

Vintage Remington Target .22lr, does it deserve its name? Bergara B14R
Просмотров 496День назад
In this video, I take a closer look at an older batch of Remington Target .22LR ammunition. Originally rated at around 1150 feet per second, I was surprised to find that it actually clocked in at over 1200 feet per second during my testing. This ammo features a 40-grain round nose bullet with a thin wax coating for lubrication and comes in packs of 100 rounds. I believe this ammo is 30-40 years...
Impossible shots? Super windy 262 yards shooting .22lr
Просмотров 59214 дней назад
In this video, I tested the accuracy of a .22LR at 262 yards in extremely challenging wind conditions. The wind was not only shifting directions but also came in strong gusts, reaching speeds of 34-40 miles per hour. This made it incredibly difficult to predict where the bullet would land. I started by shooting at an 8x8 inch Caldwell steel plate, which turned out to be relatively easy to hit d...
Remington Cyclone .22lr ammo; Wet'n'wild or a dry'n'lame? Tikka T1X at 50 yards

Hey everyone, welcome back to the channel! Today, we're diving into an in-depth review of the Remington Cyclone .22LR ammunition. Remington claims this ammo is both fast and accurate, but is it really as good as they say, or just a load of hype? We're about to find out! I'll be testing the Remington Cyclone in my Tikka T1X, equipped with the Meopta Optika6 riflescope, featuring a powerful 5-30x...
RWS Subsonic HP, the last sound they never heard, Tikka T1X .22lr
Просмотров 2,4 тыс.Месяц назад
In this video, I test the RWS Subsonic HP at 50 yards with my Tikka T1X. The RWS Subsonic HP bullet weighs 40 grains, is a Lead Hollow Point (LHP), and has a muzzle velocity of 1033 fps. For this test, I am using my A-Tec Wave suppressor. The scope is a Meopta Optika 6 with 5-30x56 magnification, providing a clear and precise view of the target. I rely on a Caldwell shooting rest for stability....

Today, I'm going to take a crack at some steel targets with the Remington Thunderbolt. You’re probably already familiar with this round, and it certainly has a reputation that precedes it.

CCI Stinger, Harder better faster stronger, Tikka T1X .22lr

Today, I’m excited to test what might be the fastest and most hard-hitting .22lr on the market: the CCI Stinger. Boasting a muzzle velocity of 1640 fps-at least, that's what CCI claims-this round has piqued my curiosity. Unfortunately, my chronograph has retired to the great hunting ground in the sky, so I can't verify the speed myself. We'll have to take CCI's word for it. The word on the stre...

    They are listed as plated, not copper plated. From your picture they look like they have the brass colored plating used on Remington's Golden Bullets. Not sure it is even plating as I've seen some indicate it is a brass colored powder mixed into the regular wax lubricant to give otherwise lead bullets the appearance of being plated. Looking on the Remington website the photo on the box similarly looks like a brass and not copper bullet. Nice reference to Falling Down.

      It worked fine. But I think I`ll just use it with it`s iron sights. I bought it for the looks and style, and optics ruin that. I have other guns for that.

    I have some of this that is a couple years old. I was doing a Remington comparison video with their new Golden Hunter Improved Performance ammo 😂😅 with their new rimfire technology 😂😅🤣 I shot some of the target, and the rim exploded in the chamber of one of the rounds!! 😮😳☠️ it was insane!

    Remington Target ammo is some of the worst ammo I have tried. Even Winchester Wildcat shot better. I had 3 rifles (Vudoo, Lithgow, Kidd 10/22) and the Remington shot badly in all the them.

    In the 50’s and 60’s Remington and Winchester were making good ammo with Winchester extending that to the 1980’s. Then Federal started making better 22lr ammo. Today no US manufacturer is making anything I would consider much above plinking ammo.

    • @thegunviking
      @thegunviking 10 дней назад

      It`s a shame that no US manufacturers can make a decent match cartridge. But you are correct, there is nothing made in the US that will win a major match. I hope this will change, but I`m not optimistic.

    Typical Remington, never really found a truly accurate round from them. They make plinking ammo. It seems their intention was to make lots of ammo as cheaply as possible and let the people deal with it.

      I wish they could make a good target cartridge, but maybe the competition is to hard from the european competitors? Or it isn`t possible on their existing machinery?

    • @fishcars8078
      @fishcars8078 10 дней назад

      ​@@thegunviking​ I wish that there was a better explanation, but the truth is that Remington, Winchester and Federal can't be bothered with quality control. Like a lot of US companies in recent years, all they care about is absolute maximum profit. Which is why so much of it is sold in bulk boxes and buckets. They have the machinery and ability to make something better, they just don't want to. More profit to be had in selling buckets of point and blast ammo. Remington and Winchester both went bankrupt as firearm manufacturers as well. They exist in largely a ghost or shell form today, but the ammo portions are still up and running. Both of them used to produce quality firearms. Many well renowned arms, but like so many other US manufacturers the call of maximum profits meant increasingly bad quality and low cost materials. It has also happened to our cars and other industries. They played that game and lost. I totally understand businesses have to make a profit, and want them to be able to make a profit to stay in business, but when you sacrifice quality to maximize profits you run this risk. Winchester and Remington both become purveyors of garbage firearms. The ammo portions of the companies largely followed suit. Especially the rimfire lines. A lot of Winchester centerfire ammo has been recalled in recent years. A lot of the European target and match ammo sells out pretty quickly here, even at a higher price. There is a market here for quality 22lr. They aren't interested in making it. The profit/work ratio is too low to interest them. So bucket o' bullets is what we get.
