we tested all current manufacturers .22 on the market a few years ago at our shop. We decided that american eagle brand shot the cleanest (well clean for a .22 which is a very dirty cartridge) but it also was the most consistant thru the chronograph, with very little variation from round to round and was the most accurate except for some specialty .22 ammo. Plus it is hollow point and copper washed so it doesn't lead up the barrel as quickly. It's all I shoot in .22 now

I had my first 10/22 for over 25 years in the previous it became stolen. I immediately replaced it with yet another. As my father keeps it at his farm, I even have been considering getting yet another 10/22. I even have regarded at different .22s, the two much less and greater costly, yet I continually come back to the Ruger. you may get the common style at Walmart for in easy terms $2 hundred or you may get between the fancier fashions (walnut shares, stainless-steel, etc.). while you're no longer pleased with the Ruger, I doubt you would be happier with any of the others. Plus, there are approximately one thousand distinctive aftermarket products available for the ten/22. you may trick it out on your hearts content.

DJ got it right, buy a box of everything you can find and test them all for best accuracy. My 10/22 shoots CCI Stingers best but one of my Marlins refuses to give better then a 3" group at 50 yds. with the stuff. All .22 ammo is basically dirty by design but your rifle will handle it.

10/22's will handle most, if not all ammunition with no problem. I would use whatever is the most accurate in yours. All rifles, and especially 22's, have a preference for one type over others, regarding accuracy.
I have not noticed any difference regarding cleanliness, although the waxed bullets tend to leave a wax deposit along with the burnt powder. A 22 in a semi-auto leaves burnt powder in the action, whatever make.

With .22s, you really need to test all the ammos and see what your particular gun likes. That said, I shoot my .22s a lot and CCI Blazers are what works well enough in just about everything.

I suggest the Remington Thunderbolt. A rugar 10/22 is an awsome rimfire rifle and will do good with any round, I also suggest the Winchester Wildcat.

Blazers are a very good round.
Remington and Winchester work quite well also.
