I might have to loosen up on my “horde” of 22LR ammo and go poke some holes in paper. If I ever feel bad about my plinking with larger calibers...pulling out the Ruger Mark III, or the 10/22 always makes me feel better. Just plain fun to shoot.

Agreed. It pains me to shoot the .308 AR-10. $$$$$

Well, before I sold it, actually ;-)

Well, it looks like I may have just made it too. I decided I was going to hold out with what I have until the price got down to 6 cents/round. I will now take my Ruger MARK I (which I bought in 1971 for $49) out and poke some holds in some paper. ;o)

The CCI Tactical .22lr is so reliable that it begs to be employed as home defense ammo. With a tuned BX25 mag or three the 1022 is a good option for lots of 40 grain high speed pills dumped into intruders in quick succession.

In .22lr pistols (like the Bersa thunder or Ruger SR22 or 22/45 or GSG 1911 with rail) the Aguila 60 grain bullet is very effective and amazingly reliable ... I've been testing them in a CMMG conversion for an AR pistol in 7 inch barrel. Runs like a sewing machine and hits hard on water filled milk jugs. You only get one shot per jug cause the exploding jug loses all the water immediately. Imagine the hydraulics in the chest of a perp!
