Budget precision ammo if there is such a thing.

I have a old squires and bingham 22 bolt that after 500+ rounds it will start having extraction issues. But I can visibly see the extractor is worn. It was a old gopher gun on a ranch and in the 8 years I’ve had it probably 5000 more rounds through it.
But other then that one my CZs and Dlask/Kidd 1022 never get cleaned unless they get wet and dirty while hunting.

Never give me issues.

I shoot a mix of CCi and then cheap bulk buckets from federal and Remington. Can definitely see the dirt biuld up from those ammo but still don’t give me functionality problems
 
I have seven .22 rifles, although only one is a semi, bought by my dad in 1930.

Three are dedicated target shooters, the rest are fun guns - from 1910 to 1962.

ALL love Geco standard velocity stuff.
 
So looking for something decently accurate but that won't break the bank. I've heard many mention CCI standard velocity. Definitely accurate for the price, but I found every 20-30 rounds or so I'd start getting failures to extract. I'd run the bore snake through a few times and she'd be good again but 20 rounds later same problem. I don't know if it is because they are full lead vs copper plated, but I wasn't having much luck. Gun is a savage mark2, is was thoroughly cleaned before I shot. Any thoughts or suggestions?

I have a CIL Anschutz 180. CCI is the most accurate in this rifle, but due to the waxy lube on the bullets, after about 50 rounds, the chamber get's tight. I use a chamber brush, then pull a clean patch through the barrel. I had a CZ 455 with a tight chamber, and I had to clean it a bit more often. No extraction issues; rather, chambering issues.
