[Who is John Galt?]

I've learned that firearms (especially rimfires) often shoot better with one factory load, as compared to others. With that in mind, I will try as many different loads as possible, whenever I buy a new rimfire. Once you identify a preferred load, you can (& should ;^) stock up on it.

A few years back, I bought a box of Aguila .22 long rifle, along with a selection of other brands, to try out in a new rifle. I don't remember how the Aguila shot (or if I even fired any), because one of the 50 cartridges in the box looked like it had been grabbed with pliers & twisted out of shape. Kind of made me wonder about Aguila's quality control (was there any propellent in the cases, or primer compound?). Hopefully their QC has improved since then...

They say it has.

They say they purchased all new equipment, using the Ely priming system, over the last 5 years.
