I have a Ruger Target model with the 10" bull. I have shot almost every brand of match ammo out there, Eley, Winchester, Remington, CCI, etc and have been disappointed in the gun. It shoots good, just not to my "target" standards. For quite awhile I've been shooting some of the old Winchester EZXS. It works best with those up until I started playing with it as a plinker. I bought some Federal Game Shok 40 grainers. Their not easy to find around here but I ended up with some anyway. They shoot in a hole at 50 yds. It has brought the Ruger out of the closet and I'm looking forward to next years competition with it. I found them to be the cheapest at Midway. Try $20. for a brick. Might want to give them a try. If they don't work they are still good for plinking or practice. Worked for me.
