[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Question on .22 ammo

Posted: 6/22/2008 3:50:35 PM EDT

Paper work finally cleared on my new toy...

I have close to 20,000 rounds of lead tipped thunderbolt...OK to shoot or should I use copper plated?

shoot it till the cows come home.
Or till it fills up?
.22lr will lead even the copper plated.
Does that can come apart?
If it does put some anti seize grease on the threads.
You won't be sorry.

i just received my gemtech outback II that does not come apart. i have been told to get a ultrasonic cleaner. that will do the best job, and when it wont do the job, youll need to send it back to have it cleaned

I've had TERRIBLE leading problems with Thunderbolt ammo through non-suppressed .22s. It leaded the hell out of my Advantage Arms Glock conversion.

I would never shoot that stuff through a can.

You might want to reconsider using thunderbolts... watch and if that ammo does that to your bbl, i cant imagine your can.
