Made for marlin - Remington 22 Thunderbolt .22 Long Rifle 40 Grain Round Nose Brass Cased Rimfire Ammunition

Dreamwalker's Review of Remington 22 Thunderbolt .22 Long Rifle 40 Grain Round Nose Brass Cased Rimfire Ammunition
I have shot this round exclusively out of a 1930's production Marlin 39 and after several thousand rounds have had ZERO malfunctions. It is the perfect velocity and weight for a varmint gun and is stupid accurate. I sighted in using this round and was nailing quarters off a branch within an hour. By the end of that summer I killed Chiselers by the dozen at a hundred yards off-hand in the wind with this round, as well as Chipmunks (yes, they are small) off of fenceposts whilst running across. Can reach out surprisingly far too; just for fun, aimed at a boulder on the hillside about 500yds away and managed to hit it after accounting for some generous drop. I have tried a few other loadings of 22 and this one seems to be a match made in Heaven with the old gun. Most confident shooting I have ever done with any gun, and I will never switch ammos in it. Buy with confidence. Pair this box with a pre-1950 Marlin and you'll be Bill Hickok-ing it in no time.
