I can't seem to get the same accuracy from the "new" black box batch of .22 sub's compared to the greyish box previous batch.
Anyone else find that ?.

That would be good, thanks Doug
 
I noticed they were a little off too
groups slightly bigger

you can measure rims using a .223/222 case and a set of calipers
 
Well, we all know that once you find a brand and batch that delivers consistant and acceptable accuracy you should stuff the ammo safe to the roof.

Being of course careful not to breach one's FAC authority to hold of course.

If you are talking about the new 42grn Max subsonic then they shoot very well through my CZ. I have only tested them on the range so far, I haven't had a chance to test them in the field as I am still using up the last of my Eley subsonics.

Yes I have noticed accuracy not as good and variation between batches seems much more than the old blue boxes.I am curious to know if the 42gr are more accurate/consistent but have'nt managed to find any local as of yet.
