I tend to spend a little more on ammo, but my father refuses to spend more than 5 or 6 cents a round. He's tested nearly all the cheaper end ammo you can imagine, and he's found the Aguila and Geco to be the most consistent so far. Sure, the CCI SV produces some good results, but they can vary drastically from lot to lot. And we tend to get a lot of random fliers from the CCI SV, regardless the rifle we're shooting them out of.
