Glock G44?

For chuckles and grins I chronoed that 36 grain JHP load, it's showing 926 fps, with an 84 FPS spread and an SD of 27 fps. No malfunctions while firing 100 rounds.
 
CCI seemed to be the preferred brand but it’s more expensive.

Any information, good or bad, would be appreciated. Thank you.

The Autoloaders in .22 seem to prefer copper plated 40 grainers and CCI is 100% reliable. The Glocks are very basic and a good choice especially if 'trigger finger discipline' has been taught.

With a .22 revolver any bullet works, CB Cap, Shorts, Longs or Long Rifle.
 
Update with our G44 today.
I took the boy out today to play with his new Glock. I initially loaded up the mags with cheap ammo. No issues. Then I used some copper plated CCI 40 gr through it the rest of the time. He even let me shoot it once. So smooth and hits were aimed.
One thing I did was put a couple drops of Balliistol on the slide rails and the magazines. We’re going back out next week one day again.

GLOCK model 44 in 22 cal.
I have had one for a couple of years now, bought it when they first came out. I bought 5 more magazines for this gun. The Glock magazines are easy to load. This gun always seams to make in into my range bag when we go shooting and I have more than a dozen 22 cal guns. It went to the range with my Grandson and I last Friday and we fired more than 300 rounds out of it with no problems. Its a little light though, but no functioning problems with either 36 or 40 grain ammo. Fun gun to shoot!
 
I had another range session with my G44. Up to 300 rounds with the FED 36gr HPs. Showed 910 FPS avg vel vs 926 from last time. No issues.

Shot CCI STD VEL 40 gr velocity 856fps avg, STD 17.2, spread 66 fps

S&B club 40gr round nose velocity 854 fps, STD 12.7, spread 48 fps.

50 rounds of each, no issues.

The pistol is now well over 1K. I know it's a small amount, but I've only had the pistol since late last year.
 
We were out today to the rifle range, but we shot 1 mag each and no issues. The other handgun was a GP100 in 327 Federal mag. I actually hit the target out at 50 yards, which is good for me! OKAY, 12" groups, but still! But I kinda like the G44.
 
Somebody explain to me why a brand famous for its magazine capacity across all calibers, has a .22 that OEM Mags just hold 10 rounds! I would have guessed a Glock .22 would hold about a brick of ammo!

ProMag to the rescue with 18 and 25 round mags for G44. They work great.
 
I finally found a round the g44 didn't like. The Remington thunderbolt BF525. I had multiple failures to extract and feed. It chronoed at 815 fps with and SD of 75.6fps!

I ran rounds from the same box through my 617, and got 929 fps with 81fps SD! I also had some ignition issues with the rounds.

For comparison, the highest SD from a .22 I had previously seen was approximately 25 fps.
