What do you guys recommend for standard (non match) plated high velocity .22?

Thanks!

The Federal Bulk Packs have been reliable........ $14 for 550rds.   Shawano Wal Mart is supposed to have 25+ in stock but Green Bay was out as of a couple of days ago.  Wal Mart has also begun to carry the Remington  Golden style rounds in a 550 pack.  These are around $16 for 550.

Bedford,

This one has been pretty thoroughly covered

Check here:    http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=371.0

In this climate I'd buy anything you can afford.  It will shoot in something.   I have a variety of .22 rf that all seems to shoot from OK to very good.  Some days are better than others too!

Just a suggestion
In general, .22 RF ammo is most accurate if it stays subsonic; all match ammo is subsonic.  So ... if you don't need the speed to cycle your action, you may be happier with regular or subsonic ammo.

The best stuff I've found yet is the Wolf match Target from J&G sales. Their website says they have plenty.
