Have great results coating 22lr ammo. Couple of mine 22 rifles I bought second hand and they have been good shooters. But not knowing exactly the round count or what kind of ammo had been used I took 100 22lr ammo, cleaned with acetone and dried, and with the tip of a knife blade full of HbN put in a plastic container hand shook for couple min and it sticks to the bullet, easy to wipe it off the brass.
After the 100 rounds shot through my 10/22 the groups almost 1/2 size and ammo that wouldn't shoot well before now shoots better as well.
Did this trying to copy David Tubb's barrel polishing method. He uses HbN but not sure what method he uses to coat 22 lr ammo. Does anyone here have experience with coated 22lr ammo?
