RE: Ruger 10/22
Personally, I've never noticed that .22's are all that picky about ammo, with 6 10/22's and 11 Marlin 60's under my belt, plus half a dozen other guns of lever or bolt actions (and one slide action winchester).
Most of my 10/22's that I've scoped have shot touching groups at 25yrds with pretty much anything I feed it, including "whatever I've got left", which usually accounts for 500rnds of the last 5rnds of several different boxes/bricks.
Ely match ammo ($4-6 a box) shoots way more accurately than your 10/22 will ever dream of. CCI Minimags will also likely out perform your rifle.
I'm not a big fan of federals, no matter what gun I'm using, I usually get about 1/3 of them as misfires. I've had several squibs with federals too, which is the ONLY rimfire ammo I've ever had that problem with. You'll extreme variation in report from one round to the next, even in their premium ammo. At least that's been my experience.
