This post is intended to start a supportive discussion about shared experiences related to the Ruger LCRx .22LR.
I’ve had some issues with a few brands of .22LR ammo in my Ruger LCRx. Some tend to misfire occasionally. It seems to be more prevalent with bulk ammo like the Golden Bullet. Has anyone else experienced this?
Great point, connie! I had a similar problem with CCI Blazers; they caused several light strikes. I switched to Remington Thunderbolt, and my reliability improved significantly. Have you tried different brands?
Trying out different ammo can turn into quite the scavenger hunt! I found that Eley ammo works fairly well, but it is pricier. If you want accuracy with your LCRx, it might be worth it, though.
