'whatever you can get' looks like its making its way up the chart...
My Savage Mk-II likes most.....
My favorite .22's are those CCI CB Long cartridges for close up & because they are quiet.
The second favorite for increased range, accuracy, & hunting are the velocitors.
And 3'rd, the bulk packs of winchester or CCI for general plinking works great....

CCI Blazers and Winchester copper washed hollow points have been the most accurate for me and my Marlin 925. Seems the more expensive and powerful the ammo the bigger the groups. Rem yellow jackets appear to be the worst I've used so far. Next range visit I'm really going to preform some tests with all the different ammo I have in stock.
This is what I use in my 597 and 10-22. It is only $20 a box at P&D Enterprises.
My S&W M&P 15-22 likes Federal 525 bulk pak, but will shoot just about everything except CCI Quiet. It feeds and shoots CCI CB Long, but must be cycled manually
My GSG 1911 prefers CCI Stinger (I hope to ween it off the expensive Stingers as it gets broker in)
MY DAR 10-22 with Xtreme barrel (bentz chamber) loves Federal Auto Match, but will run well with Fed 525, CCI Blazer and Remington Subsonics on a good day.
I have a CMMG .22 conversion unit on the way for my RRA AR, I really hope it likes Fed Bulk Pak, as I have 6,300 rounds on hand.

CCI standard velocity or Blaser for practice, CCI Competition Green Tag for matches (GSP) If Eley Tenex is available, that goes in a Toz35.. Or used to - sold the Toz.
10-22 gets federal bulk unless in New Zealand with the suppressed .22, in which case it's winchester subsonic hollow points for bunnies and possums.
Gophers get the federal bulk. Or the winchester bulk. Or the winchester wildcat. - un-suppressed so it doesn't matter if they're supersonic.
plinking - whatever is cheapest.
