So I am curious what everyone's preferred 22 Rimfire ammo is for Semi auto. If you shoot a 22 Pistol include that to.
I found in my Pistol and my son's Savage Semi that the Hyper and HP did not fire well. I pretty much switched to CCI Maxi, Blazer (made by CCI) . Has anyone tried the CCI Quiets (For Semi's)
CCI always shot best in my guns

x2 for CCI — stingers, mini mags & velocitors. The subsonic doesn’t always cycle the semi’s.
CCI quiets will NOT cycle in my Marlin 795.

CCI also has a Quiet made for semis. The regular Quiets are 710 f/s and the semis are 835 f/s. I haven't tried them yet as everyone is out of stock.
I find my 22 pistol and semi rifle does not like stingers

I was thinking of trying the Blazers as that seems to be all Canadian Tire has. 22 ammo is getting scarce many store around here shelves are empty.
It all depends on your gun, the age, what it was designed for, etc.
The old Cooey 64s jammed up a lot with the faster ammo. My browning from the 60s I will not shoot anything but standard velocity. The Rem 597 does not like Winchester bulk ammo but the Browning Buckmark chews it up.
I would say, go buy 1 box of everything available and try them, worst case you have some fun on the range.
I have Aquila standard velocity (it was very cheap when I bought it), Remington Target, Winchester bulk hollow point, Blazer, CCI Stinger, Remington Subsonic, CCI Quiet, CCI CB, pretty much anything that has been on sale.
The Quiets and CBs will not cycle the semis
i love the wildcats! but cant find them down south!
My Nylon 77 eats anything, my 10/22 prefers CCI, and my 22/45 eats pretty much anything I feed it. My other are not picky Henry Golden Boy, Rossi Pump and CZ Canadian
I have lot's of Canadian Tire money so I have to buy it there and they don't have much left for stock but they have Blazer and according to CCI website it works well in semi's. The only other brand they have that is lead round nose is Federal and I have never tried those in the Semi.
I think I will risk it and buy 6 boxes of 50 and hope they fire smoothly out of the Pistol and the savage.
My old bolt action 22's fire anything
Aside from CCI, I like the Federal blue box copper coated stuff. It's functions very well in my 10/22
I always had good luck with Remington thunderbolt but now trying cci and so far so good
I had 3 boxes of the Remington thunderbolts and sold them on here. I found ever 3rd round would jam in my semi and pistol.
Round Nose ammo seems to be all that works
CCI Blazer for plinking, CCI Standard Velocity if you want more accuracy and cost, then move to Eley if your shooting serious 22.
