Just purchased a Buckmark Challenge and was wondering if anyone knows which ammo this animal prefers?
 
Hi Beorn,

All .22's are a little diferent. My recommendation is what worked in my Buckmark - may not work in yours.

I have had no problems with any ammo - best groups were with CCI SGBs.

I have found that my new Buckmark likes a cartridge with a "long" bullet.

The perfect example of what I am talking about is the Winchester Super X Target 40 gr cartridge.

The regular copper clad CCI .22 (I believe it was high velocity) just did not feed at all (too short of a bullet), but when I loaded the magazine with a CCI, then a Winchester (the above mentioned type), then another CCI, then a Winchester, etc., everything functioned perfectly.

Which is good, because I thought I had 200 round of useless CCI on my hands.

Which makes me realize how foolish I was to buy as much CCI as I did before I knew what the Buckmark wanted.

Good luck,

Duncan
