Unless Remington has improved their quality control in the past few years, I would not use this ammo in pistols as it is unreliable, i.e. you will get several duds in a box of 50.
In my match bullseye competition days, 1960 thru 2005, I tried many times to use Rem. std. velocity. Was always plagued by a massive number of mis-fires. Pulled the bullets dumped the powder & always found the priming mix to be horseshoe shaped, with an area that had no priming. Naturally, that’s where the firing pin hit. Switched to another brand of std. velocity & never had problems.
It might be worth a try but I haven’t had much luck with Remington .22 ammo pretty much ever. Sure it is great for the occasional semi auto ripping but not much else. If anything odds are this being a bit older that it is probably better than their current offerings. I’d split a case with someone to try at least for the money.
