Deker 3,455 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) just bought a 22 mag and have tried a sak and a jet Z not a lot of good any sugestions and what ammo would you sugest am using 30Gr cci maxi-mag at moment mainly used for short range fox work The SAK is Fine and the Zet Z is brilliant, just exactly what do you expect...you are not talking about a .22LR SUB Sonic! With regards ammo, what do you want to aim it at? CCI Maxi Mag is 40g and a TARGET round and should not be first choice for fox! Edited June 19, 2008 by Deker Quote Link to post

Mr_Logic 5 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Maxi-mag is either a 40gr FMJ or a 40gr HP; the HP will do the job very nicely! The Maxi-mag + V is a 30gr hollow point but isn't ideal because by 100 yards my HMR packs a bigger punch. But, if I had 22 Mag, I would be using any of the bullets Arcpest mentioned.

ermin 0 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Dear all Thank you for your comments which are much appreciated Deker, I expected maybe wrongly for the sound moderators to quieten the round a little I have a 243 which is moderated and it is much quieter than the 22 mag the bullets i am using are http://www.cci-ammunition.com/ballistics/d...spx?loadNo=0059 and their manufacturer recommends then for Varmints Quote Link to post

Talk to http://www.jacksonrifles.com/ and find out what you are doing wrong! The link is for Maxi-mag + V, you stated Maxi Mag in your first post! Quote Link to post
ermin 0 Posted June 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Dear Deker sorry for any confusion caused over the ammo i did mean maxi-mag + v My expectations for the sound moderators may be a bit high I have a pes "scout " on order so will try that Quote Link to post
