just tested my new buckmark 5.5" 'camper'.
good factory trigger, points well for me, easy to load, nice pistol!
tried win. powerpoints. sprays them. this ammo is said to be of good 'hunting class' rimfire ammo. thia pistol does not seem to like them.
i have some wolf ammo with lubricated lead bullets. not sure if they will cycle this new gun but thats what ill try next.
any others out there with an ammo reccomendation?

First of all, avoid Wolfe ammo in any gun costing more than $100.

My Buckmark does excellent with cheap Remington UMC brown box ammo. In fact, it shoots better with them than it does with Federal Gold Match 711.

You may want to go to a gun show & buy one box of 10-15 different brands & see what works best.

Try the CCI standard velocity stuff. it works well in my Buckmark, and many of the people on my club's pistol team use it too.

I think it is just the plain jane .22 LR standard velocity as shown here:

"22 Long Rifle Std Velocity 0032  $4.95"

Wolf rimfire ammo is made in Germany by SK, which is connected to Lapua.  It's actually very good ammo (unlike the centerfire ammo from Russia).  It's standard velocity (like all match ammo), but it should cycle fine.  At least after it's broken in.
