HP in it won't expand so might as well stay with RN bullets. Or get the new Segmented CCI ammo. They will split into 3 parts. Are deadly on opossum, coon, and I've killed a coyote with then also.I haven’t tried hollow points in mine yet. I’m going to stick to the brands I already mentioned. In the near future I may get some cheaper stuff and see how it does. The gun did fine on federal bulk. The first lcp 22 I had was a complete lemon. I got that one pretty soon after the gun came out.
The 40gr RN will give the deepest penetration. Those segmented HP will only penetration around 4-6" so self-defense against a bad guy it isn't enough penetration, but I would think they would hurt like crazy the way they spread out. It might be a deterrent if hit with one or more at best. I'd probably stick with 40gr high velocity or faster for penetration.Nice!! Haven’t even thought about those. Once one gets past all the internet chest pounding and actually look at ballistic testing, they will see the little 22 is a nasty little round.
Agreed. I carry either Blazer or CCI Mini Mag RNThe 40gr RN will give the deepest penetration.

CCI and Eley has been the most reliable ammo I've shot 22lr wise.Agreed. I carry either Blazer or CCI Mini Mag RN
Good for ya. Love the little guy but will never trust it to for when I need it to defend.Ran 150 rounds of mixed brand ammo thru my new LCP II 22LR.
Not a single glitch !!
Feeds and shoots just fine,
A fun gun to shoot,
Dang man, hate to hear that. Have you sent it back to Ruger to have it looked at? Mine runs like a Glock.Range yesterday….70 rounds, 13 fail to fire (blame Federal bulk), 3 fail to load (blame gun), 2 fail to eject (blame gun).
Been sent back twice.Dang man, hate to hear that. Have you sent it back to Ruger to have it looked at? Mine runs like a Glock.
Have you been able to get 500rds through it yet?Been sent back twice.

Wow. That is crazy I'd definitely send it back ask them to get it right. Definitely a lemon.2016
