Humm......this got me thinking about reliability and about the 22LR ammo prices.
So say it this way. Speaking of ME. How cheap I am, and how (most of the time) 25 yards is good enough and accuracy only has to be "minuet of can".
BTW.....I usually/generally buy American Made and 40 grn lead bullets, for my 22LR. It would be a rare occasion for me to buy, one box at a time and I don't normally like the .36-38 grn, HP or plated bullets.
Whatever......
It's good to have a "choice".
So anyway, take a look at most any web sight and compare some prices. Example : Sportsman's Warehouse web sight today.
CCI Mini Mags = $0.13 a round
CCI Blazer = $0.10 a round
CCI Std Velocity = $0.10 a round
Fed Auto Match = $0.09 a round
Rem Golden Bullet 525 bulk = $0.08 a round
Rem Thunderbolt 500 bulk = $0.09 a round
Winchester M22 = $0.09 a round
Winchester 525 Bulk = 0.09 a round
Of course.....prices will vary from seller to seller, some ammo might come with free shipping (by the case) and promotion/sales are to be considered too. So then.....like I said....."I'm cheap".
Why should I/would I buy CCI mini mags for a "Plinking 22LR Pistol" if they were the ONLY rounds that work (maybe sometimes) out of my pistol?
Yeah.....to each his own. Besides.....some people......don't like my choice of Remington 22LR for my Walther P22. They say it's "dirty".
Whatever.....
BUT, it works.
Aloha, Mark
