Seems a little slow @ 1100 fps, Have to wonder what the test BBL length was?  ???

If that's a pistol length rating it's pretty decent.

Decent .22LR target ammo generally runs 1000-1100 fps.  It keeps the slug from passing through the trans-sonic speed that tends to affect accuracy.

This is paper hole punching ammo.

 These shot really well and are very accurate. They're also really weak out of a pistol and could cause cycling issues in some pistols. My Ruger will show this with ammo in the 700's.

Ruger MIII 5.5" 864, 870, 857, 856, 854. Average = 860.2 FPS/ 66 LBS

I bought several cartons of this and now I'm disappointed it does not like to function in my semi-auto pistols.
No problems in the revolvers.

Federal from Dicks functions in my cheap little Phoenix after I disabled a couple of their redundant safeties.

Winchester and CCI ammo seems to function 100% in my 3 Rugers. 

I had to remove the LCI in the 22/45 Lite.  22 ammo is so dirty that after a couple magazines of the Norma stuff it would start misfeed.
It runs almost 100% (98%) without the LCI.

Why does Ruger make such a nice gun then screw it up with the LCI and magazine safety (it is gone as well).

I found these have a wax/lube on them and that always creates a little headache after many cycles. My favorite is still Federal Champion Blue Box.
