I wonder if my Savage model 93 rifle .22 WMR can use this type of ammunition:

or this:

http://www.hornady.com/store/22-WMR/

Because I'm using CCI .22 magnum rimfire ammunition.
Thank´s a lot

If your question pertains to the tipped bullets rather than the usual round-nosed bullets, then yes - you can use that ammunition.

Thank you very much I'll buy some boxes of ammo to try out my new rifle :), I'm very concerned about problems with food magazines or ammunition extraction ... I hope the perfect functioning rifle.
Thanks and Pura Vida!

ANY ammo for your rifle that you can buy, I would say is good ammo.
I just saw 22LR Winchester Wildcat 40 grn lead bullet 50 count, for $22.00 .
That is correct, $22.00 for a box of 50.
The look on the salemens face after I quit laughing was one of not humor.
I said, I know ammo is scarce, but that is ridiculess.
His reply, "I paid premium prices to have ammo in stock, so I have to demand a premium price".
I did not patronize his store.

WOW! Not to hijack this poor gentleman's thread but Wildcat is consistantly the cheapest .22lr under normal circumstances.
I've bought it as cheap as $1.99 / 50. Wow... Just wow...

Why not post the name of that shop so none of us will make a mistake and shop there.

Try some Hornady 30 grain varmint rounds and you won't be dissapointed. I can shoot one big hole at 50 yards and close to 1/2" MOA at 100 with them in my model 93 bull barrel.

Mine really likes 40gr Rem Accutip

I had lots of problems with Winchester ammo in my 93.....but every rifle is different.
