Better than no 22 ammo fir sure
I don't like Remington ammo
But these are new production under
Vista outdoors https://vistaoutdoor.com/brands/ so I'm hoping for better quality than before.
Accuracy was fine but many dead primers in some I bought a few years ago.
I got another bucket for a girl who likes to shoot a damn lot
I couldn't give her 2 buckets they'd be gone in no time

What brand / model did you get?
I have a Traeger and it's been great for most things. That said, won't buy another because they have no direct flame searing option in their design and they refuse to build them with one. At least the last time I talked to them. I have a work around that is a bit of a hassle that involves removing the the two flame / grease deflectors to expose the fire pot. I like my steaks n burgers done right over the flame. Once the treager rusts out or has a major electronic failure, I'll change to something else. Id like a fast eddies cook shack but the cost is high. Shouldn't need another though. All stainless steel.

I've had good luck with the federal line of cheap 22 as well as Aguila but I'd definitely take the golden bullet if i had to have it.

Speaking of ammo, I know a few guys I classify as ammo snobs.
I personally don't get it, but they will in no way shape or form allow any "cheap" ammo to touch their precious AR.
I expect mine to cycle the cheapest dirt covered steel case crap I can dredge up. If not, I expect it to get fixed or it goes away.
I sent my 5.45 upper in for that very issue, luckily they got it squared away.

I reload for my AR but I've tested cheap ammo in case its ever needed. I reload for better accuracy not cost. Well maybe now cost is part of it lol. If it won't shoot everything, then it has to go. That is the type of weapon it is. Shtf type. They need to fire any 556 / 223 ammo.

Pork roast looks good, but I REALLY want a "bucket o bullets" right now.
Shot my Remington 66 ONE time after Bosslady bought it back for me for Christmas 2019. Thats a surprisingly sweet-shooting little rifle.
Damn these are 62.00 at Walmart

The Walmart I got these at doesn't carry these that's why there's no shelf location.
So that's why they weren't on the shelf
I asked the girl if anything new came in
And she found these under the counter
She thought it was drywall spackle at first.

Im a use the ammo for the task type of guy. Plinking ammo need not be $$. It has to go bang and be accurate enough. Match shooting requires better ammo obviously. I know some fellers like you mentioned. I don't get it but its their money.
