Winchester Expiditer 22 LR 32gr HP Ammo

I just shot a large Groundhog in our back yard tonight at about 70 yds with
my Marlin 880 SQ rifle. I was using this Winchester Xpediter ammo for the first time.
The feet per second is listed as 1640 with a 32 gr HP bullet, well a well placed
shot did the trick, the hog was facing me and I swear I put the bullet down his throat through his mouth. I had a good steady rest and with a 6-18 x40 power scope ,(I know really overkill for a 22! ) I put the shot exactly where
I wanted. That Varmint was DEAD! one shot Good Night Irene!
I have not tried this ammo out on targets for groups yet. Has anyone else
used this ammo? Works well on Woodchucks with little mess.
