Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
We track ammo through two rifles for Silhouette competition. Records are kept based on 10 shot groups fired at 60m measured outside to outside. Semi-auto averages .33" placing it above average for the 27 loads tested to date.
Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
Just picked up of this GECO 22 ammo. Clean burning, get groups, and you can not beat the price. Just as good as WOLF 22 ammo at half the price.

Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
I am a competition shooter "NSSF". It is important the ammo goes bang every time, cycles the firearm, has low recoil and is accurate. Geco Semi Auto does everything perfectly. Thank you Geco and please keep it coming.

Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
I shoot tournaments and find this ammo fine out of my KIDD rifles . It is a little faster than standard .22lr but that is perfect if it is a little windy. I'm glad I tried it. I bought two cases from Targets Sports they always get my order very fast . Thanks Rick DeAngelis, Florida

@ 89F it runs 1109fps out of a 16"bbl runs 1073fps out of 12.5"bbl good ammo, has light lube on case and bullet.
Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
I've used this ammo product prior to my order with Target Sports and I can say without hesitation that this GECO is the best ammo that I can find. I returned to bullseye target shooting after thirty plus years of absence and found that this ammo exceeds all others by far. I had regular FTF's and FTE's with my Smith model 41 and Ruger Mark II using other quality and expensive ammo. All of this stopped when I began using GECO ! Target Sports processed my order for a full case of GECO and promptly shipped it to me without shipping costs ! Outstanding !! In considering the total costs, TARGET SPORTS costs me $100 less than other vendors for a full case of the same ammo ! I will certainly continue using this GECO ammo as are my shooting associates who are ecstatic over GECO performance! I wholehartedly recommend TARGET SPORTS for their price and promptness and GECO ammo for it's unparalleled performance.! I will certainly order again with TARGET SPORTS !

Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
very good 22lr ammo a little on high side
Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
The ammo feels slippery, like its been lubed to run smoothly in a semi-auto feed, which is consistent with the description: semi-auto ammo. I didn't care for that lubed feeling, it was noticeable when loading my 10/22 magazine. Slippery in my fingers. All that said, it fed flawlessly. I will anticipate a lot of fouling due to the lube, so 4-star instead of 5 for performance. (Would give a 4.5 if possible.) 3-star "value" rating solely because all .22LR ammo is ridiculously expensive. 4-star quality because although the ammo did pattern nicely at 30 yards, some of the softpoints were visually just slightly misshapen out of the box. All in all, good plinking ammo. Pleased to have it.

Worked great out of my RUGER MK III.and MARLIN 60
Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
Very accurate, constant groups, a little more recoil than CCI blue standard velocity. I would purchase again.
Comments and Reviews on Geco 22 Long Rifle Semi-Auto Ammo 40 Grain Lead Round Nose - 259940050
This ammo runs perfectly in my super ammo picky sig mosquito. Not one FTF or FTE in 200 rounds. Great stuff.
