I'll have to look for them.  I suppose any standard velocity .22lr would 
work, or for that matter a standard .22short or .22long.  BTW I've been 
shooting these out of a 24" barrel Remington 514 for years.  However, the 
chamber is kind of funky in the thing, and I've taken it in to get it 
rechambered to .22mag.  It's a single shot, so no feeding problems to 
worry about.
I use the armscor .22 semiauto for all my .22cb short shooting these 
days.  It doesn't feed them reliably from the magazine if I cycle them 
manually, but I can load them into the chamber one at a time, or they 
will feed okay manually if I only load one in the magazine at a time.  
And it's just as quiet as the 514, and seems to be just as accurate.  
Ever since I prettied up the 10/22, I like banging around with the 
armscor a lot more: no worries if I scuff it up a little.
