I just bought a S&W Model 22A-1 semi-auto with a 7" fluted bull barrel and I want to start practicing to shoot in a weekly bulls-eye tournaments at a local shooting range.
I know different guns shoot some ammo better than others but I need somewhere to start. There are many dozens of different .22 LR rounds out there and I'm wondering what would be a good place to start to find the best ammo for the gun I mentioned above. I looked on the NET but can't really find info on ammo preferences for .22LR in a semi-auto.
If you shooters can start me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. I was told that I should shoot heavy standard velocity rounds. Is that correct? If not what is correct?
CCI has a 40 gr Pistol Match round - part #0051.
Federal has a new target round out #AM22, is that any good?
Remington's target round is a 40 gr LRN, good?
Well, as you see I don't really know where to start and know only what's on the company site. Advice from real shooters would be a big help.
Thank you...
