Might want to try CCI Mini-mags too. They come in two styles. 36 grain HP and 40 grain solids.

Federal Lightning? Really? I have never got a group that good in any rifle with that stuff. Agree though, you have to shoot a bunch to find what your rifle likes then buy all of that lot you can find.

I have a Ruger 22 charger that likes American Eagle 38gr hp and CCI Stingers. I also shoot some Rem 36gr hp through it and it seems to shoot them just fine. My 10-22 carbine seems to like just about anything but Stingers. I just got a brick of Winchester Xpert22 36gr Hp that I am looking forward to trying out for the first time. I have never really patterned any of these so I am not sure which ones work best through my guns, I just know that my 10-22 and 22 charger has killed a lot of grouse with anything I have put in them. The acception as I mentioned before would be the stingers in my carbine since it took 3 shots to hit a grouse i was shooting at around 40 yeards away. I usually shoot them in the head and ended up with a body shot that was pretty messy. I will let you guys know how the winchesters do when I get a chance to try them out.
