I am claiming to be the 22 lr rifle, accessories, and ammo expert. Why? Because I have spent three months researching every gun company and ammo company I could find on the net every day, looking for a Ruger 22 lr and 22 lr hollow point bullets. While doing that, I would also see there are no 22 lr rifle made by any company for sale. I watched Rugers go, before the crunch hit, for $150, and by the time I found a Ruger 22 rifle, the price was $260 and I bought it. I just saw that same rifle today for $370.

During these months, I've managed to get a Hot Lips 25 cartridge magazine for it and now those are gone. I found I could order a Ruger made one from the company website and I have done that and waiting for it to get here. Those are going for $100-150 now from individuals on auction, but the Ruger company price was in the $30s.

I just today found where I could get CCI hollow points for it, coming to that company next week and I'm not telling where that is until I get mine ordered and I hope I'm fast enough to get them before they're gone and they are not expensive for a package of 375.

If any of you have done more to find them and their accessories and ammo than I have, I'll give my expert title to you.

Before all this started I had been buying a Box or two of the CCI Mini Mags at Academy for about $24 for a box of of 375. A week or so ago they were on the Cabelas site for $49 a box. I’m glad That I’m not empty handed, but I sure wish I had a few more boxes. Good luck.

OTOH, I went to a local gun shop that had lots of all kinds of ammo behind the counter. .45, 9mm, .380, .223, .308, and .22 lr. Then I noticed the signs: “Ammo sales ONLY with purchase of a firearm,” and “No bulk .22 lr sales.”

I don't claim to be much of an expert on anything...but I stocked up on .22lr ammo and accessories as soon as I realized obama was put in office in 2008. My great grandsons will have ammo and the Rugers to shoot with.
