But what .22 ammo is reliable enough to carry in a gun for years unfired?

Umm, if your carry piece is going for years unfired you should not be carrying.

I fire 50 rounds a month from my S&W .380. I’m really good with it. But the .380 Glaser rounds are $2 each. I don’t fire those. I’m a big believer in keeping in practice as a 3.5 inch barrel gun requires it.

When I had the .22 magnum as my carry piece, which was briefly, I had .22 magnum hollow points and I fired regular lead rounds for practice. When I went to fire the .22 hollow points two of five misfired. (I hadn’t carried it for years, but it had remained loaded.)
