winchester .22 lr- 333 round count box=garbage

does anyone have an email for customer service for winchester? their comment box on the website only allows for 200 something characters and i need alot more than that lol
 
It's better than Remington.

Every gun I have eats winchester just fine. My daughter's 10-22 shots it quite well, mine shoots it, but it's not very accurate. I've had more problems from WWB 9mm, than from the .22.

Unfortunately, my 10-22 only likes ammo I don't have a deep stash of. Anything that says CCI, even blazer bulk shots really well. Anything that says Federal looks like it was fired out of a shotgun. My old 10-22, the one I passed down seemed to prefer it, so I have more federal than anything else.
 
Just curious; anyone having persnickity issues with your 10/22, are you running the factory bolt? My blue steel (maybe even antique) 10/22 and my TD have both been modified with the Volquartzen (sp) bolt. Both seem to eat whatever I feed them and my safe's .22 selection looks pretty much like clearance at Bobo's ammo shop (lots of different kinds).
 
Im not a remington Fan. But as of this date,They have the best consistently availability and prices lately. At least in my area on 22

Mine eats, feeds, shoots any ammo is given. I see lots of 10-22s on the firing line and I've never seen one that had functioning problems that wasn't solved by cleaning or broken part, like the extractor coming out.

But, that's different than having ammo it shoots accurately. Mine will shoot coke cans at 50 yards with anything, but most won't shoot a 1" group. All rifles are somewhat unique and will prefer different ammo. Do accuracy testing with a rifle and different ammo and you will be surprised at the accuracy differences between between different brands, and they all well be different. Mine prefers cci, loves wolf(but everything loves wolf), and generally shoots 40gr lead better than 36gr copper, and my daughter's is the exact opposite.

I would pay way over retail for a 10-22 that could be shown to shoot sub 2moa groups with Winchester white box.
 
I've got an old Mossberg bolt action .22 that shoots those 333's as accurately as Eley ammo. Problem is there are so many misfires, I can't use it for NRA small bore matches. If I shoot Wolf match or Green Tag, it's just as accurate and also reliable. But darn they're expensive by comparison.

I find them to be reasonably accurate as well but like the rest many duds where the priming compound didn't seem to make it to the rim. For range work, and clearing drills they work fine and cheap range fodder.

Most of the time the opening compound is just uneven. Many times you can reload them and they'll fire if the firing pin his a different spot.
