Remington Golden bullet for me. Thousands through my three 10/22s.

Thought the Ruger 10/22 literature specifically warned against using Stinger rounds.
CCI Mini-Mags seem to run closest to flawless.
1) CCI Mini-Mags
2) Remington Golden Bullets (why? I don't know.)
3) CCI AR Tactical (designed for S&W MP 15/22)
4) Winchester M-22
Others-
Most versions of Federal seem to FTF or FTE. Even the Match Grade.
Aguila OK, but dirty.
American Eagle. The worst. Dirty, FTF/FTE, inaccurate, light strikes, low powered charge, etc.
Remington Thunderbolts in the one batch I used made me understand why some have called them Thuderturds. I was wrong, these are the worst. Ha!Sometimes a gun is just a gun.Comment

My factory 10/22 barrel will eat and cycle just about anything as long as it has enough powder in the case. My heavy barrel is a little finicky with the buckets grade.The wise man said just find your place

Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).Comment

I use Remington GB 36gr HP for my bulk ammo in the 10/22 and Buck Mark. For the rifles they seem to be the most accurate HV bulk ammo.
40gr Mini Mags or Aguila HV is my backup for semi - autos. Runs well, but slightly less accurate in my 10/22 and RAR.
I save my CCI and Aguila SV for the bolt rifles.
Federal blue and automatch sucks in my experience. Accuracy and reliability is lower than CCI and Aguila in my experience. Only issues in my 10/22 were ammo, the Federal Blue box with failure to fire and Tac-22 with getting stuck in the chamber. The 10/22 was more reliable with this crap ammo than the Buck Mark, both of which typically will eat anything.
The GB has been pretty good for bulk stuff, and Aguila has been good as well.Comment

Whatever bulk ammo you can find, I shoot anything and everything with my Semi-custom 10/22 clone. I regularly use the 25 round Ruger mags without issue, don’t think they are known as finicky rifles.Im a warmonger baby, I got blood in my eyes and I'm looking at you.Comment

Stingers in any 22 regardless of if they can handle it or not, is a waste of good money for no gain, and likely a loss of accuracy to boot in my opinion..I have one box of CCI stingers I keep here for the Wife..It is Her self defense last ditch weapon.LOL It is really all She is comfortable with, so I have Her keep one loaded with them here..
That all aside..I use mostly CCI SV and Mini Mags in all my Pistols and Rifles..I am not a competitive shooter..And CCI has always served me just fine..Comment

I found a good price and ordered some high but not hyper velocity Aguila to start with. If I find a good deal on CCI Mini Mags I'll probably buy some of those. Thanks again, guys.Comment

Don't forget to try some high quality target ammo. If your gun likes it, you can discover how accurate your rifle is. Nothing beats precise shooting!
Target ammo is gonna be subsonic. CCI standard velocity, SK (many "flavors"), Eley (again many "flavors"), etc. Lapua Center X is the cream of the crop if you really want to use accurate and consistent ammo.Comment
