While experiencing a few light loads and feeding issues as the chamber fouled, the ammo had no duds. The reviewer concludes that it's a good value bulk pack option for the Ruger 10/22, cycling the action reasonably well.

This video tests Federal Premium Hammer Down .22LR ammunition in a Ruger LCP II pistol, noted as a 'picky' firearm. The reviewer aimed to assess its suitability for self-defense. Out of approximately 78 rounds fired initially, only one light load was experienced. The full box of 325 rounds was subsequently fired, with only about four light loads reported for the entire box. While not considered a direct replacement for high-performance rounds like Stinger, the ammunition is deemed reliable for bulk pack use, especially in this specific handgun.

This video from Brownells Gun Techs Steve and Caleb debunks the myth that storing an AR-15 with the hammer released (forward/down) is necessary to prevent hammer spring wear. They explain that springs wear out from usage cycles, not static compression. While military procedures like dry-firing an M16/M4 into a clearing barrel are for safety, they don't relate to spring longevity. The technicians clarify that both hammer-forward and hammer-cocked storage methods are acceptable, with Steve admitting to using both. The core takeaway is that the fear of hammer spring degradation from storing the rifle cocked is unfounded.
