.22 Subsonic Lead Free?

[Lenny]

Anyone know of any lead free standard velocity or subsonic .22 ammo? I’ve been running CCI copper for years but my cz 457 absolutely hates the high velocity stuff

Inaccurate or extraction?

I use Norma Eco Speed-22. They are hyper velocity ones. No complains.

Inaccurate. This rifle can shoot damn near one hole 5 shot groups at 50 with SK’s and Lapua center x but can’t hit the broad side of a barn with any non lead that I’ve tried

I have a brick of those at home and so far no luck with any of my .22’s unfortunately.

My buddy and I have both had a tuff time hitting the broad side of the barn with sugar free/unleaded 22Lr I have giving up all together.

But my 17HMR is 1'' MOA at 100 yards all day long using sugar free. Yeah the17 is my go to for rabbit head shots.

Right! I’ve contemplated a PCP for years but have never pulled the trigger on one. I have a Benjamin break barrel .22 that’s great for rabbits but it’s heavy as all hell so it rarely ever makes an appearance in the field.
