Federal Ultra Match sale at Sportsman’s Guide

[AHart76]

Just a PSA, Sportsmans Guide has a sale on Federal Premium Ultra Match, 22lr, 40gr, 50 round box(I double checked to make sure that’s what it really was) on sale for only $8.40 a box, $8.07 if you are a buyers club member. I stocked up, not to be a hoarder but who wouldn’t with those prices. Just thought I’d let everyone on here know!

Also google coupon codes, I got free shipping and 10% off on top of that!

If you’re not a member of soortsmans guide, buds has it for $8.15 per 50.

Thats being said I was very disappointed on how a specific lot shot out of my new vudoo and the other lot that shot better, still wasn’t as good as I had hoped. Might have been the gun, might have been the ammo.... or a combo of both.

I think that is their regular price...So, no rush to order. This shot very well in my CZ.

Buds regular price for the Federal UM is $8.15?? That’s a good thing to know! Most places are $17 or higher!

I know the UM22 is made in Germany & is supposed to be 'good stuff', but I've not been at all impressed with the 3 different lots of it that I bought from MIdway several months ago. Wish I had my money back & had invested it in a good lot # of SK Rifle Match or Lapua Center-X...

No luck with it in my Vudoo either.

Thank you to the OP for the heads up! But as already stated, I have never had it shoot out of any of my rifles. Center X and Eley Match is ALWAYS a safe bet!

 

[AHart76]

Hmmmm, for everyone saying it doesn’t shoot, it seems to do pretty good out of my Kidd 10/22. I bought some Norma to try and everyone says that they have good luck with it. It was covered in lube though and causes the cases to stick. And by covered I mean it would cost my fingers loading a mag. Is all Norma Like this or did I get a weird box? And what are some other recommendations to try?

Lapua Center X and Eley Match or Tenex

Interesting how there are some many negative experiences with these...I tried them in my CZ 455. Grouped really well at 50 yards. I tried them at 200 yards and did well also. If it wasn't for the cold, I'd get a few more sessions and show pictures of the groups. I have about 8 different brands/types of ammo waiting to get tested. Some much more expensive than these.

I have 3 cases waiting for testing. If not up to standards I will use in pistol practice. My pistol skills do not require ultra precision ammo.
