+1 for James K.
I'll also add that my experience with Smith and Colt .22 revolvers has shown that - mine anyways - all shoot better and cleaner with standard velocity ammo.
Had an older friend with a .22 Colt OMM that he was having trouble keeping the shots in the scoring rings at 25yds. He was shooting bulk brand X.
The forcing cone was packed with lead. Heavy build up on the underside of the top strap as well.
After a long cleaning session, I gave him a brick of target velocity quality ammo to try. The second cylinder though it shot into 1 1/2".
Included with the brick was a short range rod I use to clean the chambers of the lubricant build up to facilitate smooth loading.
Saw the gun after he had shot up the gift brick a few months later.
Minimal fouling that came right out in a few passes with a patch and solvent.
The ammo does make a difference.
