Back on topic. This isn't a bad deal at all. .05 cents a round. Not sure about shipping. You would have to run it through their system to get an exact number delivered.

Are you talking about the Rio Salado Sportsman's Club? That's the only one I know of on the East Side.

No, to the South.  Small bore range.

I've shot at Rio Salado several times and had a great time.  I shot at Superstition once as well.

Does anyone use ammoseek.com? They have .22 LR starting at 4.1 cents per round listed.
https://ammoseek.com/ammo/22lr

wikiarms.com lists the same price. https://www.wikiarms.com/group/22LR?sort=1&order=asc

gun.deals too. https://gun.deals/category/ammo?caliber=3

ammospy.net has 4 cents per round listed. http://www.ammospy.net/ammo/22lr

There are other ammo search engines too. Every place I looked the lowest price was 4 or 4.1 cents per round.

For what it's worth starting today, Cabela's has Aguila 40 grain copper plated high velocity on sale for $25.49 a brick of 500 with no limit. Not too bad. I'll probably pick up a couple of bricks. Advertised velocity is 1,255 FPS.

I saw an ad yesterday for 5,000 round cases but don't remember what brand it was. I think it was $309, or about 6 cents per round, and knew there were better deals out there.

I just picked up a couple of bricks at Cabela's. They also had Standard Velocity for the same price, so that's what I bought.

That's a good price Bill.

I'm thinking we are see brick prices below $25 and even $20 barring unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances.

For plinking the lead head is OK.  I bought a lot of Federal Automatch because it was available at a mor e nearly reasonable price recently.  It's pretty good ammo.

I really like the CCI Segmented subsonic (not the 710 FPS, the 1050) for running in a can to clean up varmints in the yeard at night.  They also have the 32 grain segmented that runs at Stinger velocities....devastatingly effective on small game.

Overall though, my preference is the copper swashed ammo to minimize supressor lead buildup but also to lower my exposure to lead.  Now that I've found out I have a problem with heavy metals and chemical exposure.  The CCI is hard to beat all around.

I would like to try the Winchester M-22 ammo.  Anyone here have any experience with the M-22?
