Remington Golden Bullet

[98 220 swift]

I have found them to be reliable but very very inaccurate with shotgun like patterns at 50 yards out of my 10/22 target model and my cz452. some are even louder and others softer. I pass them up when I see them at the store. For cheaper bulk stuff I have found the federal automatch to be fairy accurate out of both rifles. Not as good as the expensive match stuff but good enough for minute of squirrel at 50 yards.

My experience with Remington Golden Bullets is that they group pretty well at 50 yds considering they are HV's. They have been consistently minute of squirrel in rifles that I have shot them in. They are not target ammo nor are they considered high quality ammo any more. Years ago, it was different in terms of "ranking" as they were my ammo of choice and were always cheaper than CCI (and still are). My thought is... what are you shooting at that a small failure rate is such a big problem? The failure rate is not as bad as it was 10 years ago.

I seldom buy bulk packs. I would guess I have maybe 10 in my ammo cabinet (Yeah, I know, that's about 5,000 rounds). I use them when I take kids shooting or just for plinking. Always had pretty good luck with the Federal Lightnings (510's) which I accumulated a pretty health cache over a period of time. When they were less than $2 a box (50 ct), I was buying about 500 rounds a week and generally did not shoot them up as I have other stuff too.
