seriously in my Cz At one the Geco is really rubbish, I gave my friends at the club more than 1,000 ammunition so that it can do plin qine but not precision they are not expensive in France - 5€ but it's so nonsense. friendship from France, Thierry
I have cz 457 MTR and with this round on 50m i am creating bigger hole, on 100m group is around 15-20mm. Very good cheep round, on one competition on 100m with this round i have taken first place against Anschutz, Walter and others CZ457 and they were shooting Eley Tenex, Lapua Midas+/Center x.
Is there a big difference in accuracy between Derya tm22 and CZ 457? Right now I’m choosing between these two. I like the look of the Derya TM22, but if the accuracy of the CZ is much better, then I will buy the CZ. Your opinion is important to me
Oh if accuracy is #1 priority the cz wins hands down but if you are ok with 1.5 moa and want to plink and have fun engaging targets but still able to shoot moa the tm22 is better. Group shooting cz all the way
I recently watched a whole series of the ammo test videos you posted in the last few weeks/months. Been hard to keep track of the results. After all the testing, how would you rank the top three or five?
My rifle seems to shot best most often with RWS. SK is also a good place to start. Basically best bang for the buck is sk standard plus (yellow box) it seems to be very accurate and the price is reasonable
Shot my best groups with the GECO Semi-Auto with my CZ 457 Varmint 20.5" and Thompson Contender G1 16.25" match barrel rifle. Looking for the GECO Match to try but everyone is out of stock. In my CZ 457 Varmint it shot best with a sloppy headspace. Ya just never know about .22lr, as we all know....🥴
So, close to Norma Tac-22 then. I’m getting many squib/very low firing rounds from Norma Tac-22 subsonic(1017fps). At $9 a box US I’m definitely disappointed with it. At least this stuff you tested seems better. Lower priced too, thanks! Great Video as usual!!
So GECO made by RWS, it seems, would make a good practice and fouling round for RWS Rifle Match and R50. Decent groups for a day out. I've not seen GECO for sale in my area. Thanks for the review. 🙂
I saw this ammo in the shop today and bought one packet to try. Supposed to be sub-sonic. The very first shot was way super-sonic and very high. Then I did a 5 shot group of which 4 shots was sub-sonic and a fair group but the 3rd one was hot again and very high. Next group, first 2 was sub-sonic and about 8mm ctc but the 3rd shot hot and high again. I packed up and put the rest of the packet in the "not good" shelf to be used for plinking. I then looked up and found this video of yours. I will not buy it again.
WHat does that Geco cost vs the RWS? Makes me wonder if they are rebranded for quality reasons. Have you ever noticied if the magneto speed being attached to the barrel makes a difference on your groups? Just wondering if it might disturb barrel harmonics. I've heard some guys claim that simply adding a compensator in place of a thread protector can make a difference in groups. Thoughts? Good video Bro T
I’m sure that’s the stuff that didn’t past quality control at rws but not terrible I’ve seen worse. I Wilkie to know the difference between it and Norma tho.
Not seen that stuff around here ever. That seems OK tho lol. You mentioned a clean barrel. My 22lr rifles don't shoot anything well with a clean barrel. Thanks for another good one Bro!
Geco is one of the cheapest 22 ammo in the uk The semi auto works very well in my 1710 with a tuner but guessing you have to expect flyers at that price point and high sd 😢 Great video as always 👍👍
I never seen this ammo at my gun shops.if it shot like your last group I would definitely buy it.i still might try it if I can find it.good video as always.
Couple things im going to suggest to give a try. 1.) Remove that ported muzzle brake. I've found these devices tend to cause accuracy issues by not letting gasses escape efficiently for the 22lr. 2.) Have a gunsmith cut off the 1/2x28 threads and recrown to a 20* crown. I guarantee the threaded bore section of that barrel is opened up. A crucial area for 22lr accuracy. I believe this will aid in your rifle not being as picky as it is. Or just have me build you one 😉
Thanks for the suggestion! I would love to have you build me something I’ll have to look into the laws on importing firearms. I have a couple subscribers that mentioned the break. I’ll definitely have to test that out. Thanks so much for the help cheers my friend!
i bought a box of this to try cause it’s made by rws but, i get same results as you, very inconsistent! cci sv shoots way better out of my 457… cheers dude, thx for confirming my results!
I have seen this ammo before but have not tried it. I tried RWS Riffle Target as you used in one of your videos in my CZ457 Varmint in an MDT Oryx chassis and it shoots 1 inch or better at 100 yds. Thank you for doing the leg work, really enjoy your videos, keep them coming. By the way I would like to buy a patch or sticker with your Brotuned logo to place on my riffles. Again thank you, always learn something new from you.
I always watch your test videos even if I’m not expecting fantastic results from a particular ammunition. I’ve been wrong before, and because of your testing protocol which is so much better than most reviewers’, I feel like I’m never wasting my time.
Hey Brotuned.. I use Geco all the time for plinking at the range up to 350m on a 8” gong in my LRP with factory barrel. (I use SK rifle match for PRS). I find it consistent, if not overly precise. But for what the price point is in Australia, it’s definitely good value and serves a purpose.
I've used it alot in my semi auto but wouldn't put it through my 457LRP as it's a bit greasy & inconsistent.
Never used that ammo before , doubt I will lol 👍👍👍

Geco rifle is OK for training, but there are just too many flyers even after weight sorting.

That’s awesome!
quite common here ineuro land, its trash mainly used in american rifles 😂

Just a question. What trigger are you using and how light can you adjust it to. I’m looking for around 10 ounces.
It’s a timney cz457 flat blade and I have mine around the 8-10 oz range with zero ND I always get pretty rough in making sure it’s safe

just curious, were these consecutive 5 shot groups, or did you let barrel cool?
Consecutive that’s the way I shoot all my tests
Probably RWS culls.

Maybe ask for a miracle before starting 😂
Lol it worked
No to Geco. 🐸
I got diverent geco ammo and they shoot a lot better
Nice what is it? This was the first I have ever seen or heard of this brand
Geco is one of the cheapest 22 ammo in the uk

Hi Ryan, tried the Geco Rifle and Semi-Auto with much the same results as yourself 👍
Couple things im going to suggest to give a try.
1.) Remove that ported muzzle brake. I've found these devices tend to cause accuracy issues by not letting gasses escape efficiently for the 22lr.

@@BROTUNED You should also test accuracy when single loading direct in the chamber and without the chrono on the barrel.
The chronograph is mounted to the stock so nothing is interfering with barrel harmonics
Be ok for mag dumps in a semi auto
Agreed
Never seen GECO in my area..not once..interesting
Where is GECO ammo made
Germany, Switzerland, Sweden and Hungary from what I can find online
i bought a box of this to try cause it’s made by rws but, i get same results as you, very inconsistent! cci sv shoots way better out of my 457… cheers dude, thx for confirming my results!

Never heard of that ammo.
Think the lizard should stick to insurance!
Yes lol definitely
