If you are talking about the CCI stingers, I have shot them in my 10/.22 for years and I love them. They are a hotter, cleaner, more accurate load than any of the cheap stuff. In fact, I have shot CCI stingers exclusively for the last 4 years. I don't buy any other .22 loads anymore.
I agree with you there. I always bought stingers just for the reason you mentioned.
