They won't shoot well in your computer? :mrgreen:

I have about 2-1/2 boxes of that Remington gold. You're right....it is kind of crappy ammo. My Ruger 22/45 digests it mostly OK, and actually, so does my M&P15-22. I've had an occasional failure to ignite with it, and an occasional failure to feed, but probably something like 98 out of 100 go bang. I'm not using either gun in self-defense, so I'm not real worried about it; but the next time I stock up on .22LR after prices come down, I'll spend a little more and get the Federal blue box with which I've had very good results in both guns.
My S&W model 622 pistol eats the Golden Bullet with no problem but it seems to spray me with a lot of hot gun powder. Every few shots I feel little "stings". My S&W eats everything though. Great shooter. Too bad they d/c that line.
