Question

What is the best 22LR ammo to use in my Beretta 21A colvert?  Too many different makes jam.

Accepted Answer

Thanks for reaching out Chris! I can't guarantee anything with absolute certainty without having tested out your Covert for myself. That said, my finicky 22 semi-autos always seem to function most reliably with CCI supersonic CPHP ammunition. I like their Mini-Mag series ammunition best: luckygunner.com/22-lr-40-gr-cprn-0030-cci-100-round

I would advise avoiding hollow point ammo altogether. Its flatter nose profile can create a hang-up during feeding. I believe that copper plating, albeit very thin, does harden the bullet somewhat. That prevents the kind of deformation which can complicate feeding. High quality is also a must. Winchester's 22 LR isn't bad, but I do believe CCI makes the very best in the world. Those are just my personal experiences – I'm eager to learn whether your Covert likes my recommendation!
