I fired a mag of the Aguila SSS load in my beretta 71...it also functioned. Pretty accurate, too. The box I have is a couple years old...I would like to pick up some more.
It is well known that the US govt used the High Standard 22 with suppressor (one was in Francis Gary Powers bailout kit in the U2 incident). Later, they used the Ruger Standard model. I would be very surprised if there weren't a bunch still in inventory.
