Ultra appreciated that you took the time my fellow OCD friend! :
Thanks for putting in the effort.
Norma is my favorit ammo 👍🏻
I've had bad luck with the normal 22 lr being super dirty and many failures. The thunderbolt have always been consistent and reliable
Shot off a ton of Thunderbolt back in the day, used to be like $5 for a brick back in the 90’s. Stingers were like the holy grail of .22 when I was a kid, saved them for “special occasions” 😂 they were expensive though compared to Thunderbolt and regular Federal.
those are turbulent phosphila caterpillars, they like to eat greenbriers and are really social when young, moving to a more solitary lifestyle as they age. Neat caterpillars. I also enjoyed the .22 tests, gave me some new choices to try out...
Ah, T/CR22, I see you are a man of culture as well
You should keep the pictures of the ammoboxes a bit longer. They go by too quick and you constantly have to rewind and pause on to see which ammo you’re shooting at the moment.
I always enjoy your videos.

"A .22 sucks!" - People who never tried to occupy Ireland or the Phillipines
A Krag sure seemed to work well, though.
Were .22 calibre weapons used here a lot? (Ireland)
@@AnPreachan Yes, both officially with military personal carrying them and unofficially with rebellions. Ireland has strict magazine restrictions because of this, as many IRA would just buy the magazine and build a gun around it.
@@AnPreachannot just in Ireland friend, an account I read in fry the brain tells about chechen snipers using 22lr rifles to shoot invading Russians in the head, "and they were just as dead as if they'd been shot by a .50cal!"
Not sure what you mean by that how does a .22 suck?
Born in 1980, I can remember when I was in my early teens my dad taking me to Dicks Sporting Goods and you could get a brick of Remington Thunderbolts for $11.00 and when they were on sale they were $7.00.
That was $7.00 for 500 rounds. That is basically one and a half cents per round.
In the late 80s I would get a 50pc for 85¢ marked down from $1.15. Federal High-Power.
Dam even that much air rifle pellets cost more nowadays
Wow, that was a bit high for back in the day. In 1993 I remember saving up for a 550 pack of federal for $4.95 and laughing about how absurd it was that using pennies in a slingshot was more expensive than bullets out of my 10/22
I'm about your age and remember those prices. Been many a year since i had them. But I'm not sure I'd take Remington Thunderbolts for free. Dirty dirty rounds, that spit powder in semis, and you never knew what the report was gonna sound like. I probably should have been more worried about squib loads stuck in the barrel. Federal bulk pack with the copper wash was my goto for plinking ammo.
@@cargo_vroom9729 here’s the funny thing. I won’t argue that thunder bolts are dirty, but they aren’t terrible. I shoot Steel Challenge competitively. Over the past few years I have shot over 12 bricks of thunder bolts. That’s over 6,000 rounds. Of the 6,000 rounds I have had 1 stovepipe and no other malfunctions. I am shooting a browning buck mark. I guess it just loves thunder bolts.
When I go to these competitions, it’s funny to see/hear people make fun of me cause I’m using thunder bolts. But I always have the last laugh when I’m done shooting and blown their times away.
Ray Romano and administrative results had a baby. I’m here for it 😂

The fact the the video is 22 minutes long is a nice easter egg , well done Sir.
21:58
Spring was a few months ago. It's summer now.
Q: Now what are you going to do with all these rounds?
A: Accuracy test
Might as well, already went through the trouble of getting them all. 5 rounds /15-20 yards rifle and pistol.
Good thing 22 is fun to shoot.
YES!!!!!
That would take so much work, he would have to fire at least 15 of every round to ensure the barrel was paired to each round, but it'd be a hell of a video!!
Maybe if he had a special block/vise set up he could lock a rifle and a pistol down? Use a laser pointer to verify the firearms are pointed in the exact same spot?
@@kuil the bullets are all manufactured differently and it takes a couple rounds to pair the barrel to every new round. The vice would hold the gun in place and the laser would get you on target but the rounds would be all over the place still.
Accuracy is all over the place when it comes to .22LR especially when you go faster than subsonic. The high velocity & hyper velocity rounds that I have tested are no where near as accurate as subsonic rounds.
Now I want .22 tracer ammo!
Me too 😂
Piney Mountain tracers are pretty readily available
@@bower31 Thank you
You mean plasma blaster rounds. I'm pretty sure CMMG made a .22lr

Jeez. Tracer .22 just might be the most lethal of all 22LR. Lol

I'm thinking he's going to be jealous actually. 😕
I can't tell you how many bricks of Thunderbolt I have shot over my lifetime, but it is definitely in the hundreds.
The plinking round of America for the past 50+ years
I've had the most failure s to fire from Thunderbolt than any other .22
@tundranomad I don't know about the quality of Thunderbolt now, but back when I was using it, I never had any problems with it.
@@tundranomad i dont think anyone is saying it was a quality round, but it was probably the cheapest .22 rounds you could get, i remember weekends with my grandpa when id shoot so many boxes we would have to take a break and clean the guns LOL the Remington jacketed hollows too, shot tons of those.. make beer cans explode pretty well!
@@tundranomad Shot 2500 thunderbolts in the last month, not a single jam or fail.
Back when I was a lot younger you could buy CCi stingers for like 3 bucks a pack. I miss those days
In the UK when I was shooting it was still £3 for a box of 50 Winchester super X or whatever.
in the 70s i would get a small box for 50 cents

Dude, thunderbolts were cool but that Wal-Mart box of 550 Federal was my jam.
In the '80s I bought 3 cases of those 550 packs @ $8.88 per carton. That was 16,500 rounds!
Lasted me through all the ammo shortages and fired the last ones 3 years ago. It was pretty good stuff!
@@MrTruckerf In the 80s I would get boxes of 50 on sale for 85¢(pictures to prove it), you were getting shafted paying that rate for 3 cases.
@@TheDuckofDoom.Yea, in the 90’s you could get bricks of those for less than $5 at Walmart. In the early 2000’s they had gone up to just under $7 a brick. In the mid 00’s they went downhill bad and I started to get multiple per brick that didn’t even make it out of the barrel. I haven’t bought federal since. CCI ever since, and some Wolf Super Match that are the most accurate thing I’ve ever shot.
@@adamr9215 It was worth it for the $4.95 you spent though, lazy day out shooting the most random things for no reason was the perfect use case for them. I remember it was a gamble even back then whether you got a good pack or not, as some would be 100% and others would have a half a dozen or so that simply wouldn't fire. Firing pin marks all the way around the rim and they just wouldn't fire, so you'd pull the bullet out and realize that there either wasn't any primer compound to begin with, or it had crumbled out of the rim instead. Always fun to dump the shell on its side to get a little bit of the powder out, then ignite the powder with a lighter so when it hit the primer compound it would pop and send the shell flying across the yard. Good times, good times.
@@Skinflaps_Meatslapper No, it was a huge safety issue when the round wasn’t leaving the barrel. They caused a gun to blow up on my brother. They were never consistent rounds, but the quality was never that bad before. After Federal got that bad, I wrote off their ammo and haven’t bought any since. Not worth it to buy from a company that cares that little about its customers.
I bought a case of the Aguila Supermaximum HP rounds years ago and that stuff is HOT! Supersonic even out of a 3.5'' barrel and a very snappy feel. I loved the stuff. Unfortunately I found out it doesn't cycle reliably in any of my autoloaders. That's not the ammo's fault as it is a bit 'out of bounds' of what autoloaders were designed to use, but I decided it would be best used in revolvers - of which I own none.
The editing of showing the same shot twice a second or so apart is *really* helpful. The first one draws your eye so the next one you're looking *exactly* where it will be. 10/10, top notch editing man. For realsies.
My eyes must be getting slow. Your milisecond box/ spec pix was too fast for me. Great vid. Hunt with standard vel. No Crack/ n splat! Lol
I remember when Western Auto was "The Place" to by guns and ammo. The Thunder Bolts were .25 a box or 5 boxes for $1.00.
Back in 1979 when I was 12, I saved up all my lawn mowing money to buy a Marlin 22LR rifle, that I still have. My Dad had the same 50th anniversary gold trigger edition. Dad taught me how to clean and take care of it but, I noticed he hardly ever punched his bore on his like he had taught me to do. Late that winter we were out Squirrel hunting, and it was so cold all the squirrels were staying in their nests that day. He said I could shoot of a few rounds into this frozen over mine hole about 100 feet below us. Mine went in and you couldn't even tell I had shot it. His pulled under all kinds of air and you could definitely tell. Took me years to realize that mine would have been better at longer range but, his would do much more damage at close range. He probably didn't have much rifling left in that barrel but his had much more impact on the squirrels. I joined the Marines after high school and rifle cleaning became a religion almost but, I never forgot that at close range.
I seldom clean the bore on a .22; you just don't need to. I do clean the mechanism every hundred or 200 shots because they can get gunked up. I use a spray can of brake cleaner and it scours the crud out.
I put 10,000 rounds easily through my marlin in the early 90s and never cleaned it, finally had too but it wasn't gunked up as much as weak ejection parts and firing mechanism needing replaced. Love that lil gun still have it my dad gave it to me for my 9th birthday
???. Something was lost in the telling of that memorable event.
Impressive wound channel for some of those subsonic rounds.
I have always liked Midway USA for many years now, and so much more now for sponsoring you. I don't buy much anymore having been retired for 10 years now.
I've been buying from Midway for 30 years. I have so much of their reloading equipment.
47 years worth from MidwayUSA starting when they were actually located in Midway, Missouri. Mail order from Shotgun news only then. MidwayUSA is only 40 miles from me so sometimes I pick up supplies at the MASSIVE new building.
Cci standard, subsonic but still cycles the 10/22 with a can on.
Great video, humorous and very informative. That was a lot of work and greatly appreciated.
got a Marlin 60, bought it at Kmart circa 1979 when I was 14. Definitely shot over 8,000 rounds through it, yet it still runs true and the rifling looks brand new. Guess because it's only a 22, and I cleaned it after each outing???
Cleaning an old Marlin 60, is that even legal? Remember going out on hunt and destroy missions as a kid with a model 60 and don't ever recall cleaning it, and somehow it always just worked. They were great little rifles and they sold millions of them.
@@wilycoyote9091 yes, my Dad always taught me to clean the firearms after each use, a practice I still continue even now as I approach 60. YES! I know a few friends who never or "rarely" clean their firearms, and they still function fine. Marlin 60 though has to be one of my favorite 22's ever.
@@kingtrumpet123 Growing up with a semi-auto rifle and going out in the woods and down to the creek was a lot of fun. My friend used to bring his father's 16 GA Browning whenever he could get some shells and it was great. I keep my guns clean now, but back then never had a clue.
@@kingtrumpet123 I have a few types of .22 rifles, Ruger's are lot's of fun. Marlin's are busy filling the families small game menu.
@@kingtrumpet123 Your father taught you right, sir.
It would be better to see these tested at 20 yards or so, to get a real world example.
I've gotten a lot more of those (and others) to expand from a handgun in my knox gel tests. It's harder for bullets to expand in that synthetic clear gel stuff, and even .22Plinkster made a point of this with the recent debacle surrounding the Uppercut ammo not expanding (which I also tested and expanded on the debate).
I was going to ask about the gel to real target conversion factor for that particular product, at least on penetration if not also expansion.
@@TheDuckofDoom. FBI still uses knox for a reason...
wish I could send you some of the norma eco segmented bullet, same advertised velocity but they actually perform
I don't think you would have had good results with Uppercut. There have been YT videos comparing Uppercut vs. Punch, and the Uppercuts were pitiful.
22Plinkster spoke with CCI engineers, and they said the Uppercut was designed using 10% gel.
22Plìnkster did a test of clear vs. 10%, and in the clear gel, the Uppercut didn't expand. It expanded well in the 10%. CCI has stated that they chose to follow FBI standards.
So YT research and professional research may be different. Think about all the videos you've seen using clear gel and reflect on how those results might be different in FBI testing. Have you ever bought ammo based on clear gel results?
Are ammo makers now "teaching to the test"? Are they using clear gel for design decisions so the YT videos come out good?
We personally stock up on CCI's 957, the 45gr subsonic hollow point. Based on our own testing on everything from tire sidewalls to varmints and critters up to...bigger than you might think, these dump on average better than everything else we've tried over the past decades.
We're all shooters, all varminters and yes, sold more 22lr ammo than anything else combined over the past 2+ decades.
Thank you sir for these tests. Very interesting, very informative, very fun and not just a little bit surprising.
When I was young, we were headed "up north" to the cabin 22's in tow. We stopped at a Meijer for some odds and ends. I checked the ammo aisle as usual. I found bricks of Thunderbolt marked at $.50 instead of $5.00. First time I've ever bought everything a store had of an item. Made for an amazing weekend.
you scored with that lmao
How many boxes did you get.
Is a “brick” of ammo 1000 rounds?
You should have cleaned them out.
He said he did clean them out.
Such a great channel. I don't have a 22 I know sad lol. I am looking at a 10-22 but its around $450 for new one. I don't know if it's because I am in Canada. I need to do some more research on used one. Cheers 🍻

🇺🇲✌🏻☠️⚔️ OKC
Please stop pretending that the .22lr is a toy gun. You are waving it around like a toy. It's a toy, sure that can effectively kill a human in the head even at 200 yards. I would hate to be your camera guy.
The tracers are the best for shooting in gel. By the way, is it me or is it kinda weird how a lot of the rounds turn around and point backward?
I'd guess it's the geometry of many .22 bullets.
Fort Scott Munitions makes centerfire rounds in a machined copper solid that are engineered to Tumble Upon Impact. The extremely round nose of many .22s looks somewhat similar to their T.U.I. projectiles' nose.
@@LRK-GTgood info - thanks !
All rifle bullets are back heavy: the point is aerodynamic, but the heavier end is harder to slow down so it yaws when traversing a thicker medium

I will say, that rat shot does look like it would cover the entire body width, and half of the length, of a common rat. Seems correctly named to me.
Rat shot spreads out wide, really early; like 24” at 5 yards.
They also call it snake shot, and I have seen it used for snakes. It does get the job done. But you have to be within a few feet.
Rat shot is basically how to get a shotgun out of any calibre for use in sudden surprise pests and hunting,WWII US pilots had M12 and M15 .45 rounds for either the M1917 or M1911.
And by any calibre,this includes .50 BMG.
How many bricks of Thunderbolt?
One.
Had enough malfunctions and dud primers to know never to buy it again and stick to Federal 555s
Ok honestly I never knew there were that many .22 rounds to choose from. I guess I've always just bought by price or availability. Great video though!!!!!!
I like the bucket they sell now, I like the ~1400 rounds.
They sell that by weight!
This isn't all of them either.
Slow the damn thing down!
21:40 actually there is one common load weaker than that, it is the Aguila Colibri (NOT SUPER) which is only primer. So slow you can see it arcing through the air. I use them for for targeting shooting as they are so silent the steel ringing is much louder.
This video was better than the last ten shows I watched on Netflix.
Less Trans stuff too.
Fun to do 22lr testing! I did some myself like 15 years ago, with home-made gelatin (from baking gelatin powder) moulded in milk-jugs.. interesting to see what round expand and not! From my Savage 93 rifle the Winchester and CCi HP subs expanded and grouped best..
In a way it is odd that subsonic rounds in 22lr actually is better and more stable at longer ranges (+50yards).
Keep up the good stuff and fun tests.
Greetings from Northern Sweden!

Thank you for a very thorough testing of 22 LR ammunition.
I’ve burned through 10k of the new Thunderbolt (sold in the new black and green 525 packs with a R headstamp vs the old Rem). Runs great and doesn’t get your hands dirty
Only one round didn’t go bang out of 10k - a record for me with rimfire
My son shoots competitively so we burn through that stuff like crazy
Fantastic video on the 22lr! Just so everyone knows, the 22 Blue Tip requires a hard target in order to perform its intended function. It won't work on a soft target. (I'm sorry I can't be more specific, apparently youtube flips you the bird when using certain words)
Is the intended function complete in microseconds?
@@TheDuckofDoom. No, you are looking at 1-1.5 seconds. It depends on the caliber and how much of the compound is present in the projectile itself. Larger Calibers such as 30-06/308 etc will have a longer duration.

How many bricks of Thunderbolt? Man, so many. That stuff was as cheap as water. Plus one time we went to Dunham's and they had mislabeled the bricks with the price for a box of 50 (.50 cents at the time) so we bought everything they had, which must have been 40 boxes. That stuff is all long gone now.
You didn’t buy any of the “Famous” loads my Grandpappi’s friend Big J sells at the flea market
Herter's coming clutch with that 22 headstamp. Sounds like a marketing genius opened his mouth.
If you want to see the 22s expand use FBI gel You have to mix it up by yourself and it doesn't last as long it has to be used within 14 days
The timing of "do you want to see my purple round nose?" Had me laughing the hardest I've laughed in a long while. My dog now thinks I'm crazy.
The reason the shorter barrel penetrated more than the longer barrel was probably due to the energy transfer due to the higher velocity was quicker than with the shorter barrel handgun. Dropped the velocity a lot quicker. That's just a guess.
Now with rifles, say a 16 inch vs 24+ barrels, the reason would be because all the powder is generally burned about the 16 inch mark. Anything longer the bullet loses much of it's push down the barrel. That is the reason magnum rifles generally have longer barrels.
Remington should start making the Yellow Jackets again. That was pretty much the only 22LR ammo that would reliably expand even from a 2" barrel.
Remington better start not having loose ends projectile, those golden bullet mann...
I have one brick left of the Remington Yellow Jackets.
I have 4 boxes of yellow jackets left. That was kind of like the cheap standard back in the day. Wouldn’t have thought I’d be glad that I had some left these days.
They were my go-to hunting round in the 70s & 80s. Dad would send me to Pamida or Gibsons to get two boxes before each outing. I remember they were really expensive. Like $1.75 box of 50. Back when solids were 50 cents a box.
The 33 grain Yellow Jackets, sucked in accuracy. The CCI Stinger killed the Remington.

Those supermaximum hypervelocity rounds are something else. Actual recoil and report. They're not quite 1640fps but close.
if you want some Aquila 22lr 60 grain sniper subsonics let me know i will send you some
I started out using CCI Minimags, but soon found incredibly poor quality regarding inconsistent powder loads, poor crimping of the brass around the bullets, and often huge thick globs of wax on the bullets instead of a thin coating, which caused all sorts of failure to feed (due to the wax globs) and failure to eject (due to insufficient powder load) problems. When CCI instituted a permanent price hike during the last ammo shortage a few years ago, I could no longer justify paying good money for their lousy ammo. I switched to Aguila, and never looked back. Many many hundreds of rounds and not a single defective round fired through half a dozen different semi-auto pistols, and at a price of $40 for 500 rounds, the price is the same per 100rds as I was paying for CCI Minimags BEFORE their ridiculous price hike. In all fairness, CCI's hyper-velocity ammo like Velocitor and Stinger seem to be more consistent regarding quality, but you're going to pay a premium price for those. And after watching some long distance accuracy testing videos, it appears that the longer case length of Stinger ammo was found to be problematic in precision tolerance rifles that are designed to produce exceptional accuracy using ammo with standard length 22LR casings.
There is no possible way I could say how many thunderbolt bricks I shot growing up. And then you have the golden bullets lol
I was on the golden bullet train as well growing up
@bananaballistics

PS. Super fun video. This looks like it was alot of fun. Expensive, but fun
That tracer looked awesome in the gel! I don't recall ever seeing someone else do this..
yah....blame the Miskito....... its a ZIT.....HA!!!
Bricks of Lightening-- like a lot. Every Christmas was 4-6 bricks just to get to the summer. The dirtiest round-- made you clean a 10-22 just so it would cycle. Your thumbs were black loading 30 round mags.
I’m still amazed at your tests of the .22. Also, the new table looks great! Keep it coming!!!
lol omg i bought 4 green and 4 red tracer in .22 lr at a gun shop, oh and 2 boxes of magnums....any guesses of cost?...........just broke 3c's with tax. ya , 10 boxes at 50 rnd a box over 300.00 with tax and magnums was cheap stuff
The video we've always needed 🤙🤙
It's funny that I always grew up listening to my grandfather say that the 22LR goes in and bounces around and never comes out I don't believe that not one bit I never believed that a 22 rifle will go in and ping pong all over and I never in my life believe that no gun in existence shoots a round that does that
5.56 hits bone and can either take a 90 or follow inside of the bone and explode the end. Usually it is tumbling when hitting flesh at over two hundred yards.
WELL.....during a military live fire exercise I once personally witnessed a poor 82nd soldier jam his M16 , then in an attempt to clear it without considering the possible consequences, bring his rifle butt down on hard ground, which initiated a three round burst, one of which hit him straight in the face. In my then capacity as a kind of Military Law Enforcement Officer, I was present at the autopsy when the bullet was surgically removed from his cranium as I was tasked with preparing an official report on the incident...sooooo, now you've 'heard' of at least one (technically anyway) 22 round that entered the skull;
' ping ponged all around' - turned the cranium to jelly, and still failed to exit. Now, you don't have to take my word for it, but back then pretty much everyone of any consequence did ;) (Former FORCES COMMAND HQ, XVIII AIRBORNE CORPS SPCL SERV/WARFARE "SKYDRAGON" here. )
I'm sorry you had to be around such a tragic event. All 22 rounds will do that if shot at the right trajectory and distance necessary to create the optimum speed@@seeratlasdtyria4584 thank you for you service

It sure does happen although a few things come into play. Had a neighbor drop a cocked .22 rifle on its butt. It fired and hit him on the chin. The bullet went up around the inside top of the skull and stopped in his neck not far from where it had gone in. A suicide in town shot himself in the temple with a .22 rifle and the bullet went out the other side in a straight line.So you never know exactly how a bullet will react.
.22lr is likely to deflect due to it's energy and basically always being soft lead. That leads to people conflating stories of a .22 exiting at a different angle than it entered, as "bouncing around". Add guys liking to tell ridiculous stories, a 70 year long game of gun store telephone, and a lack of willpower to prove otherwise, and you get "da bulit bounces round in da body like a blenda, turn yur orgins to soop!"
Hey guys, remember when bricks were $9.99 a box? I'm talking bricks of 500, i found an old one in my collection with the tag still on it, still shot like new, Rem Thunderbolt. Oh the good ol days.
Oh, I may have bought that last case of Velocitors a few months back. Sowwy 😂
Marketable, amazing editing and friendly?! I just had to subscribe.
Let's get SOME!
Didn't know I needed incendiary rounds for my 22. I also can't wait to bring my Anschutz to the next riffle match and show up with them along with tracers😂.
You should shoot 22 pellets with nail gun blanks that would be cool as ive seen some other people do it and get really good results!
I'm not even sure how the pellets survive. IIRC, some people were getting 2000+FPS w/ the high-power ramset blanks and light .22 lead pellets.
I am going to say my extensive knowledge with .22LR rounds, nothing but a CCI Minimag will I use on anything other than varmints. The bullet flats like a dime and bounces around internally like a cutting wheel. For squirrels and rabbits use whatever, but for large game nothing hits and does the damage of the CCI Minimag
