I think in all things there is a decision that must be made between size/weight/cost and durability.

I've used the bricks of copper-jacketed Remington ammo (from walmart) in my 10/22 with no real problems. Any misfires/FTE's were using the off-brand magazines.

I also have a few brands of the "high velocity" .22 ammo. Does anyone know if there are any problems firing these types through a regular 10/22? I have read that it's not the best idea to shoot hi-vel rounds through firearms not designed for them.

Thanks!
