These are very reliable in my semi-auto 22s, never a FTE or FTF with them, but I find that I get piss poor accuracy with them.  Poor accuracy from my Smith 22A with them.  I've got a Marlin 70pss semi auto that gets such bad accuracy with them that I would not attempt to hunt squirrel with them at greater than 15 yards.  Anyone else notice this behavior from the Mini mags?

Never had a problem, keep in mind though all I shoot them through is my Winchester 67A. At 100yds with iron sights I can shoot the tip off a spray paint can with em.

My Savage MkII with bull barrel will shoot them nearly that good, but there's other ammo that works better in that rifle.  I don't about shooting the tip off a spray can at 100 yards.  It gets about 3/4 inch groups with them at 50 yards.  With other ammo, I can shoot 5 rounds through on hole at 50 yards with that gun.

Maybe it's bad luck on my part, but I don't seem to have a single gun that likes the mini mags.  At 25 yards, I can shoot better groups with my Rock Island 1911 45 ACP than I can with my Smith 22A shooting Mini mags.

I have 6 10/22's a Buckmark and Mark II, I have no problem shooting 1/2" at fifty yards with MiniMags, with the 10/22's the Buckmark loves em. The Mark II not some much. I have never heard of people having those kind of problems with them.

Maybe I just can't shoot for shit.  I admit my pistol skills aren't that great, and the Marlin's takedown configuration stock is a bit weird to hold.

I wouldn't say that, mabe just a bad day. I know sometimes I go to the range and shoot like god. Other days I am just wasting ammo!

Well, if I am wasting ammo, at least they're just 22s

You can't seriously expect me to believe that??????? I shot 3 position competition for MANY years and I find your claim to be a little generous,to say the least.

CCI Minimags are very accurate for me in my 10/22 and reliable
