PCrandal's Review of Federal Premium Champion Training - Rimfire .22 Long Rifle 40 Grain Lead Round Nose Rimfire Ammunition

This is good for "breaking in" a new barrel, learning trigger control, and various other learning (training).
Champion? Federal has used that name for quite a while. I will admit to having shot a lot since the 80's. It was and is fine for informal plinking. Plenty of failure to fire, even with repeated primer strikes around the base.
The Gold Medal is cleaner, and has more consistent priming compound placement.
Pros:
  • good for general use
Cons:
  • not as reliable for defense
Best Used for:
  • Training
Would Recommend: Yes
