[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3934928, member: 48072"] Before I open my mouth too much and become an OSHA violation, I'll keep it to this: Different firearms will prefer different ammunition, just like centerfire guns. I have a Colt Diamondback that shoots the bulk 36gr Federal stuff amazingly well, but kind of shotgun patterns the Federal Automatch. My safe full of old Winchester 67s will all group the Automatch under an inch at 25 yards (open sights). I have a scoped Savage rifle that will shoot in the 1" range with either at 50 yards...but shoots in the .3s and .4s with Wolf Match at that distance. Plain old bulk .22 stuff (even the Automatch) kills armadillos pretty effectively...but I will give the nod to my Mini Mags in that department. I dispatch trapped raccoons and skunks with the CCI CBs or the Quiet ammo during deer season. It works great, but requires good shot placement. At this point I'd just buy whatever you can get your hands on if the price is good. I got on a .22 kick in 2016 after they returned on the shelves again after being gone for almost 4 years. I was buying by the case...~$220/5,250 rounds at the time. [/QUOTE]
