Candyman,

First let me congratulate you again on your buy. I don't hate you for getting it at that price... envy maybe, but don't hate. (Don't worry, frogs are supposed to be green! )

As for ammo, that gun will shoot any factory 22 LR ever made and do it safely. On the other hand, it will probably have a decided preference for certain ammos, not always the cheapest, but then again not always the most expensive. There are those who would encourage you to limit yourself to "standard velocity" and "target" ammo, but that same frame was used for 38 specials, and you have a lot more steel around each hole in cylinder and barrel, so I personally wouldn't worry about it. I've been very pleased with the bulk packed Federal Auto Match that is sort of between standard velocity and high velocity. It has plain waxed lead bullets so you could never wear out your barrel with them. Have fun!
