Ammo questions on 5.56 NATO

Hi All,

I just got my first AR. It's the Smith and Wesson M&P 15 Sport. The LGS got a couple so I grabbed one for $599. Intended use is described, below.

I'm likely keeping it somewhat stock, Magpul iron peep, etc. (Yeah... I know I'll probably start messing with it, but I'd like to get friendly with the gun first!)

So, with the 1:8 twist, what ammo do I want for range practice, plinking, coyote control and HD?

And, for cleaning, I have a brass .22 cal kit. With a bore guide, is that OK, or are there other, better options?

Thanks, folks....
