You may have to try several brands and see which works best in your rifle...

Not all 10/22's like subs, most of them prefer something with a bit of poke, something like CCI Minimag...

This can depend on the age of the gun, has it been worn-in, or whether its been slicked or tuned.

There are mods you can make to the rifle to make them run subs, but again you first need to find the most accurate round for the gun.

If its used, is it clean and lubed..?

As its a semi auto, it needs the round to have enough energy to push the bolt back against the recoil spring... any dirt or dryness will hamper that.

My two 10-22s like CCI Minimags. The one with the suppressor also likes CCI Subsonic
