I use CB longs in my 9422. They are quiet and good on squirrels at short range.

I have never tried Colibri but have heard they can hang up in a rifle barrel and are only supposed to be used in revolvers.

I don't have a 66 but I have a 73 Carbine it dates back to the mid 70s and has a butt plate trap door for the cleaning rods and it has the correct sights. It can be a bit fussy about ammo but is a real fun rifle and has taken many rabbits and squirrels. http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc145/cabel...
