For small game hunting based on your target results and to keep it simple I'd lay in a supply of the CCI Mini Mag's, the same lot number shot for group. That said I prefer sub sonic hp loads for most of my needs.
Curious... are you shooting a number of rounds of the next ammo brand to "season" your rifle barrel before shooting for groups?
Yea...that's my plan...partly because my two other 22's like Mini Mags but I also like to support CCI because it's a local company.
I don't usually shoot any fouling rounds but I don't clean rimfire barrels every time I use them.
More than anything I'm surprised at how many brands of ammo this gun shoots well.
