Bobcat ammo

My apologies if this has been discussed to death already. I just picked up a Beretta 21A in .22 lr and the manual recommended standard velocity ammo. What do you all have good luck with? Thanks in advance. I love those Beretta pocket guns. The’re fat and heavy, but there’s just something about them that I find irresistible..
 
Mine shoots any thing I feed it. It doesn't however like to be dirty. After a couple of hundred rounds it stops ejecting.

Blow back design, I get it, but if I were suggesting ammo, I'd suggest the cleaner the better. Otherwise, buy what you can and just give it a good cleaning after every range session.
 
Standard velocity ammo? Hmmmm I may have to give that a try. I’ve just shot CCI mini mags and other generally “high velocity” bull pack ammo out of mine.

Mine has occasional failures to feed, maybe standard velocity ammo would work a little better.

And I agree with Kreyzhorse. Gotta keep it clean. Even bringing a few Qtips to the range with a few drops of oil or cleaner just to quickly clean out the chamber can be enough to keep it running well.

They are really neat little pistols and I expect you’ll be happy with yours.

Just get yourself some CCI standard velocity or Aguila standard velocity and see how it does.
 
For any kind of .22 lr ammo, standard or high velocity, I always prefer CCI. Seems to be the most consistently reliable.
 
CCI standard velocity, not Mini Mags if tge manufacturer states use standard velosity. They built it, they have their reason.
Going hotter isn't going to blow your gun up, but may accelerate wear considerbly. Some ammo above standard velocity may not function either. I had that problem with some "hyper" velocity stuff with a light bullet. Not enough "equal and opposite" to push the slide far enough to pick up the next round.
