havent had a chance to do much testing due to limited choices up this way when i bought it. At the moment i am using winchester supreme 17gn they are ok but i think i could do better (i needed ammo so i bought 500rnds of the only stuff they had at the time). I think from memory the hornady 17gn polymer tiped bullets worked ok as well.
I havent been able to try much else except all of the 20gn bullets i tried were not very exciting

Shane's first recommendation was an Annie, but i didnt want to spend much on a rimfire (until i get the thumbhole stock and match grade barrel
). If your dealer can get me an Annie at a CZ price give me his details, would he take a henry lever as a trade in?

Oh well at least I could advertise a gun on this site if I wanted to part with any of them (which I don't).

You certainly don't muck around once you have desided what you want do you.
