Try SK rifle match. Made in the same factory. I compared a Midas round with an SK. Same head stamp, same lube, same heads, same looking powder - pretty sure is the same stuff but in a cheaper brands box. I shot both at 100yds - zero POI shift
Will do, thank you for the recommendation.

I use normal tac 22 subs on my cz457 and they work fine there quiet. But as everyone has previously mentioned every gun is different
Cci small game works well
Also sk long range match works well for competition

Had some of those a couple of years ago, they were better than I expected as they were only £2:45 a box so I thought I'd try a couple of boxes. Then they were sold out, unsurprisingly.
I've always used Eley HP Subs in my Finnfire Range, but understand that the newer ones aren't supposed to be so good.
RWS HP Subs are also great rounds, accurate, very quiet with no 'crackers' (unlike CCI Subs) but they are very low velocity compared to others. Strangely, I've always found them to function well in semi-autos which doesn't make a heap of sense!
I've owned loads of rimfires and never found one that liked Winchester subs.

Ive got an Anschutz and have struggled to find anything which is as accurate as the old Winchester 42g. So much so I was actually considering getting rid of the rifle with the poor accuracy of all the other ammo Ive been trying. Saying that Ive found the best of a bad bunch to be eley

I was looking for a new option and had a play with a fee different brands. Some surprisingly results.
S&B by far the best

Have you tried rws/norma? My anschutz loves them
Will definitely give them a try

Just doing some testing with a new to me 20" T1x and 40gn S&B HP were the best as well.
Aquila HP 38gn were great for lateral but had a bit too much vertical string for my liking. About 80fps spread over 10 which could explain it.
Eley Subs were a waste of time. Poor consistency over the chrono and poor groups

Mine likes fiocchi a lot.
No one will be able to recommend for your rifle as you can get two rifles of the same brand that like different ammo - get a box of about 10 types and test them all back to back at 50 yards and see which gives the best groups, then test the best 5 again to confirm.
