After about a 200rd. break-in period, mine will shoot most of the bulk ammo well.
I only shoot plated ammo in my .22's and had good luck with Winchester 333/555 and Federal 525 pack ammo. It also loves the Winchester anniversary ammo (40gr plated).
No problem with Fed 525 Bulk, Winchester Anniversary Ammo (brick), CCI Blazer and loves CCI Minimag.
Mine loves CCI Minimags. It shoots blazers for 100 rounds then the non coated lead bullet seems to foul up the rifling too much and groups go to h*ll. So I give it a steady diet of Minimags and no issues at all. Great fun gun to shoot and practice with. My wife started using mine now as a beginner handgun. Great choice for your son. It will give him confidence with less chance to develop a flinch that will ruin shooting for him. Good luck!!![]()
+1 this what mine likes best as well the Federal 525 bulk packI use Fed 525 value pack. No issues yet. Been thru 5 or so boxes so far.
