So, over-the-counter stuff is no good?
Factory ammo is fine but limits your bullet/velocity choices, especially with a Ruger or 1895gs that can handle hotter loads

Its also expensive, $50 for 20 rounds at walmart. You can load same ammo at home for about $1/rnd less if you go with cast lead bullets
