All these .22 recalls lately due to increased production rates, you reckon?

Hard to say as the recall is dated last July.

So not only can you not buy .22.....but when you do they blow up?

Obviously a liberal plot.

Thunderbolt and Golden bullets are dangerous, always have been.

I have a partially used brick of golden bullets that I use for malfunction drills because I'm pretty much guaranteed 2 per 10 rounds

I heard that, but it's not a surprise it is Thunderbolt. They might be the worst they make.

Remington make great Centerfire stuff. But they don't seem to know much about rimfire.

I would quit shooting .22LR altogether if Thunderbolt was all that was available, wouldn't care what lot or year it was made.
