It boils down to air density. That's why long range precision shooters use altitude, temperature, barometric pressure, and humidity in their calculations to ensure hits. The longer the range, the more critical the data.
Gun powder has it's own oxidizers in the formula. The combustion happens in a sealed compartment between the bullet and the shell case. outside temp and atmospheric conditions past the crown of the barrel only effects the bullet not the burn of the powder.
Not really, I mean I'm shooting cards on edge at 150 yards in wind with $100 gun a few shots apart and hitting 22lr cases at 175yd back to back???

“they don’t want you to know” is a misnomer. Manufacturers do not explain nor teach the intricacies of ballistics. However they care not whether you are educated. This said your points about POI in different seasons, barometric pressures and air densities is spot on. Testing ammo for consistency is one of the the things which can give one a slight edge with regard to raising your score. Knowing the nuances of a given ammo in a particular gun matters. Stepping back; I do like to look at the standard deviation of chronographs velocity spread with various ammunition’s in various environments. Minimizing the spread of muzzle velocities does reveal how consistent the primers and powders ignite and burn. Poor primer ignition and poor powder burns will create inconsistencies in POI. For some of us; finding the ammunition’s which provide consistent POI in a given air density and temperature helps to reduce the probability that hat we take ourselves out of Match contention before we load our first round. I like and appreciated most of what you said. The exception is that I did not agree that ammunition manufacturers don’t want us to know about ballistics and the factors which are associated with their study.
The humidity on the day affects the burn-rate of the gunpowder inside a sealed bullet inside a combustion chamber... If you had said temperature of the day then maybe I might have listened. But you are literally saying that your logfire burning inside your house will be affected cos its raining outside.... Did I get that right.
I'm pretty sure he said that high humidity causes residue to buildup quicker in the bore, and that build up affects accuracy compared to a cleaner bore.
STKO Great content & interesting points thank you,! this does explain why why my grandad kept his .22 amo warm by putting on top of the hot water cylinder at certain times of the year, the day before he went to the range , he said it inproved his shooting, in wet conditions? Kind regards JOB
I agree. Dad bought a Weatherby 22lr from the 80's and it will shoot 1/4" groups at 100 yards all day long. Doesn't matter what ammunition he tries. 24" barrel probably helped with harmonics for stability, but those old-time rifles were built on a different level.
Spot on! I would love you thoughts on rim signing and matching the shells you use to particular weapon. I personally measured the rims of 500 CCI Win Mag 40 grain cartridges. They varied from .035” to .055” with my19/22 set up shooting the most accurate with cartridges between .040” to .045.” Now I do not do companion. I’m an old country boy who likes to shoot. My first rifle was a 22.
Well wish I could help you but I don't sort rim thickness...I found it not worth the time, but if there is a difference in your gun it could be sensitive to temperature or moisture
That and cci standard vel are my go to ammo. In my experience some lots of norma tac are more consistent and more accurate than some lots of cci standard. Another thing I like about the Norma is it’s supposedly got a better BC than standard velocity despite it having a semi flat point. Still the most accurate 22lr ammo I’ve ever shot was a lot of cci standard vel.
Excellent information and presentation of said info. Thank you for telling it like it is and not fluffing things up. I've just recently started watching your channel. I have never shot competition.

I've had problems with Aguilla 40 gr. in my Rossi RS22 I had a case Blow out at the rim and a few with the rim swollen . I decided to save the rest of the carton for my Heritage Convertible . A few days ago my Grand Daughter was shooting the Aguilla ammo in the Heritage and had 2 rounds swell so badly they locked up the cylinder. The air temp. was about 115* F. here in Northern Arizona so the Temp. may be a factor but I'm not about to buy any more of that ammo. We also shot some Federal and Win. 40 gr. ammo the same day with no problems.
No my abilities are pretty self explanatory? I have 1800+ scores in ARA Factory class 50yd benchrest with a Factory 10-22 and I have several shots unedited hitting cards on edge at 150yd + ...walking from target to bench and using only 1 magazine with called sighters...it's called skill
I shoot .22 bench matches...outdoors. Believe me, temperature does affect poi . Not consistency necessarily. We shoot year round, in the evening. In the winter as temperatures drop, your zero changes significantly .
IMO CCI Standard Velocity is the best practice ammo for target shooting especially at 50 yards and under with both pistols and rifles. It is also the most popular at the ranges I attend with all the target shooters for practice ammo
@@STKO2011 I use a lot of it in all my 22LR rifles and pistols. I also love the CCI Suppressor 45 grain HP in pistols.

Now that being said does temperature and wind make a difference? Absolutely both do, but if you want consistent shooting you have to buy ammo that is known for its consistency and that your barrel likes. Course this is just my opinion also
That's awesome!! But unfortunately doesn't work like that in the midwest especially Indiana where we can vary 100 degrees from winter to summer easily...my budget semi autos, 10/22 carbine and Mossberg 702 get sub 1/2" groups at 50yd and hit old business cards on edge or 22lr casings out to 175yd back to back within one 10rd mag with called sighters on video here on the channel, easily sub moa at 100yd with CCI SV not to mention the 1800 + scores I'm getting in ARA Factory class Target benchrest at 50yd with my 10-22 Carbine

And that’s just the way it is….😂 You are making some good points and some not so good points…true all guns shoot different ammo differently, but switching barrels and guns doesn’t make sense. Find a brand that works in your gun, and go with it. And yes, lot numbers do matter because the same machine in that lot number is making those boxes. I’m new to 22lr shooting, but learned a lot from UT… the most important part of shooting, in my opinion, is the shooters discipline. You can have the best gun, the best and most expensive ammo, but if you aren’t breathing properly, or can’t steady yourself before you squeeze the trigger, then everything else doesn’t amount to a hill of beans! Just my thoughts….
Eley isn't that much more expensive unless you only buy the match stuff. They have standard grade round nose, HPs, etc, that are much cheaper and at least in my rifles are all more accurate than CCI.
Your statements about summer time and winter time gas make zero sense. Gunpowder does not depend on atmospheric oxygen to burn, it creates its own oxygen where it needs it by breaking down the gunpowder. Temperature can be a factor but the rest is buzzword bingo.
Didn't say it depends on it ...if you actually heard what I said ...water attracts water ...more water in the warmer air ,which goes back into the barrel after the smoke has cleared depending on the temperature and humidity causing more or less buildup in the chamber
So your conclusion is ...... Lapua center X and Wal-Mart Remington bulk will have equal accuracy when fired off of a wobbly card table out of a budget rifle. And people believe you because you're on u- tube
Wow.... Well you also said Aquila was the most accurate ammo, but you didn't mention it at all! 😏Though you said it was a bit dirtier than most! But you tested it as the most accurate! 🤔
I shot 10 different types of 22 Lr ammo, 10 rds. of each, 2 five rds groups, in my Lithgow 101, 50 rds then 50 rds. why did the Eley Force, and the Federal Ultra Match shoot better than the rest my gun doesn't know which ammo is which? CCI standard diid ok but not like the hi end stuff.
Thanks but I just want people to think outside of the box or for themselves...cause we both know alot of people just follow blindly and get mad because their results aren't up to par and here I am doing what I am doing, holding back most of the time ....
As much as I'm really interested in what he has to say, he needs to stop trying to read his cell phone and chopping up his delivery. Also sound & mouth are not synced. This is painful to watch & listen to...

Ammunition propellant does not require an external oxidizer.
Correct you can make a small pile in a vacuum chamber then using a piezo spark, ignite it.
In Southern Louisiana we consistently have 80-90% humidity which makes quite the difference in poi

Cool!
Ive noticed my eley match accuracy fell of then sk match did even better what your talking about may be why
