Each 22 firearm seems to have it's preferences.
I've been lucky- Winchester T-22's and Wildcats shoot well in all my 22's - those are cheap ammo, so that's what gets used for targets and casual use. I'm not a competitive shooter, so they fill the bill.
For hunting, the Winchester Power Points do quite well for me.
A friend of mine bought a nice Ruger target model 10/22. I helped him find a good scope for it, and then we took it to the range with a box of every 22 LR brand we could find. After a lot of testing, his rifle prefers American Eagle HP's - a cheap brand sold by Federal. In his gun, those outshot everything else.
So, you never know what will work, until you try them.
