Ammo

Post by ppkny »

I just got off the phone with Grice Gun in PA and they don't have any 714 and don't know when they'll get more. Just another chapter in "You get something that shoots good like the old 711 and they stop making it saga".

Dry, how did you know what I shoot? I could get 1 1/2"groups with my factory 10/22 Lizzard gun shooting Eley Black box. I always have had good luck with Eley ammo in all my guns.

An update to my earlier posts:
  1. Eley Practice USA behaves identically to Eley Practice 100, so is (duh) probably just renamed Practice 100.
  2. Federal 711B shoots very well in my Remington 504 and Anschutz 1712 and costs less than Eley Practice.
