Bentz chamber?

I have a volquartsen barreled 10/22 that shoots SK ammo very well at 50 yds as the 2 pics show, but is there a particular brand and bullet profile best suited to this chamber?

Pretty much
Lot testing is the way to happiness
Whidden sells Test bricks of SK with 2 boxes of 5 lots of the same ammo --One lot out of that batch will out shoot the others --then you call and load up on that lot fast as you can. Some lots of the exact same ammo will shoot terrible and some will shoot way above their price point
Looks like you need more of the lot you have shown--Good shooting!
 
I have a Bentz chamber barrel on a custom 10/22 that’s loves that S/K auto match as well

Did you mean SK semi-auto? Auto Match is a Federal brand.

For the OP, the Bentz chamber is as close to a true match chamber as you can get on a semi and still have reliable cycling. As far as what ammo would be favored, that's been covered above. You need to lot test as there is wide difference between lots of the same brand in the same barrel. Before the current ammo situation, as a sanctioned competitor, I used to test dozens of different lots before buying quantity. That is hard to do now with upper tier ammo, as it sells out before proper testing can be done. For you shooting mid-grade ammo, your chances of testing and then being able to buy is much better.
