CCI mini mag HP. Not many others compare in accuracy The secret to an accurate 22 is curing the barrel. What I mean is shooting the same ammo all the time. And not cleaning the bore. If you don't believe me try this. Clean the bore and go to the range and shoot 50 rounds.the closer you get to 50 the tighter the group will get. By 100 it will be even better. And if it don't work PM me and I will replace your ammo. I've proved it to many times to be just luck I should add this any applies to copper and brass washed ammo Lead bullets will always foul a barrel

For plinking anything cheap in the bulk box usually the Federal gold. For in the woods shooting squirrels been pretty much a Stinger fan since they first came out..I really only take head shots unless I'm using the pistol which I also load with the Stingers. I will say though that since I bought my 17HMR I've shot most my squirrels with it. Just because it's fun to try to head shoot them out past 50yds..
