There's a half-dozen (or more) threads on the subject. Use the SEARCH function.

That said, M22 wasn't on the market when S&W was supposedly doing ammo tests. Add to that it is highly doubtful that S&W tested everything on the market at the time anyway. Many of us think they just listed what people complained, or did not complain, about in the recommended/not recommended list.

M22 is no better or worse than any other .22 LR ammo on the market. If it works fine in your 15-22, fine; use it. If not, use something else. Even all the stuff on the not recommended list is being used successfully by forum members.

Personally, I ignore such "recommendations" and have for years. YMMV.
