I have achieved the most consistent results at 100m shooting at metal plates using CCI Standard and MiniMag. If I was to choose a runner-up it would be Stinger.

CCI Sub-sonics: 40gr 1050 fps
CCI Standard: 32gr 1070 fps
CCI MiniMag: 38gr 1260 fps
CCI Velocitor: 40gr 1435 fps
CCi Stinger: 32gr 1640 fps
CCI Copper: 21gr 1850 fps

Man, that Velocitor stuff hauls ass! Must be C4 in those cases to achieve 1435fps with a 40 gr.
