I know this has been disccused before but for the benefit of those who may be browsing this site I thought it'd be fitting to start from scratch.

Rimfire: I buy American Eagle though sometimes Federal given there the same brand and even share the same head stamp.

Shotgun: I buy Estate almost exclusively.

Centerfire: I buy Remington UMC when possible. For hunting I buy the Remington Cor-lokt.  I've tried one other brand and was not real impressed with it. 

 

I've seen the future and I don't like it.

Well, I don't currently hunt, but we shot some targets yesterday and I was very impressed with the Wolf Gold in 303. Cheap, too!

Rimfire - Remington "golden bullet"

Shotgun - Federal/Remington

Centerfire - Wolf Gold...but it is still a neat thing to shoot ammo made during the war 50+ years ago!

   For .22rimfire in my .22savage semi-auto and my 1941 marlin target rifle,AMERICAN EAGLE is the most accurate.  shoots as well as winchester T 22  and a lot cheaper! (about $1.48 canadian ,OZ. or $ 1.22 U.S.)    stingers just fly every which way add hang up in my semi.         & nbsp;   20 and 12 gauge,federals and  center fire rifles,REMINGTON corelocs RN/ Handloads.      POPS
