Feets / Collection / My build Semi-auto .22lr reliability

Post image

What would you say is the most reliable semi auto .22lr on our market, and using what combo of ammo and magazines? I recently picked up an SBI ST22 and a few TUFF 22 magazines, working on figuring out what kind of ammo they like. Also, share your .22s

My 10/22 has never jammed. That being said, low velocity (eg CCI quiet) doesn't have enough oomph to eject properly so I've never used it in this gun.

If you like minimags, look into the AR Tactical ones. If I understand correctly, they are 40gr minimags but with a slightly different shape that cycles better in semi-autos. They are slightly less accurate than SV in most guns (ie if I ever manage to get into a Mapleseed course near me I won't be using them).
