One Shot One Kill
Sharpshooter
They're the best shooting .22lr round I've managed to find for my .22! Yeah I know what you're thinking, "heck no, not thunderturds? Can't be!" I shot over 6 different boxes of ammo, and the best group 5 shot group at 25yds I got was Thunderbolts! The other ammo included aguila super extra, CCI HV, Rem Golden bullets, winchester super-x, and finally some old federal 525 box bulk I had lying around. The runner up was winchester super-x, but it had a random flyer that opened up the group a lot, although even without the flyer it was still not as tight at Thunderbolts! All 5 shots were touching, and while I love to shoot, I don't always pride myself with marksmanship, so it was a pretty good grouping for me. Oh before I forget, the .22 used was a marlin model 60sb, my trusty boyhood gun.
Alas, I digress, the main reason I'm bringing this up is to ask is what do you guys think I should do? Considering the reputation of thunderbolts, and my worries of unjacketed excess leading, should I ditch them (after I shoot the brick of them) and go to the next best thing, or keep 'em and and just make sure I stay on top of maintenance (which is never a problem really anyways, I sometimes clean my guns TOO much!). Nevertheless, I haven't shot enough to see if it leads my gun as bad as some says it does, so I'll have to wait and see I guess for that, but if it does IDK if I can keep using it, leading is such a PITA, especially if you're anal and like things spotless. P.S. I really am leaning towards sticking with them, this .22 is my squirrel gun, so head-shot tack-driving accuracy is needed!
Anways, what do you all have to say about this? Hah, and forgive my essay, when I get going it's hard to stop.
