Molds? I thought all of them were die pressed. What kind of consistency and accuracy can you get out of a 14-16 grain cast .22?

You shoot any Field target?

I use a MAC1 USFT in .177, currently with a 24X Accushot on it, but I just picked up a steal Nikko Sterling Diamond 10X50 I need to mount before the season gets underway.

I just shot my ~8th perfect varmint class silhouette with it today. My offhand sucked though, it’s definitely NOT made for shooting offhand without a jacket and harness.

I’ve got a Logun in .22 I’m thinking of keeping from an estate sale. Pretty nice setup for small game and plinking. I might plop the Accushot on it if it doesn’t fit on my M1A...

My experience is that the more a person reloads, the more he shoots, thereby making the total cost come out the same.

Is there some kind of ammo besides center fire and rim fire I am unaware of? Aren’t there any editors anymore?

Yes. One spends the same discretionary funds one way or the other. The handloader gets to shoot more, and potentially becomes a better shooter.

Demand has been through the roof for years now. I don’t see any manufacturers increasing supply. They like the super high margins.
