I have 3 large Walmart style boxes of 500 or 555 rounds plus a bunch of 50 round boxes. I really need more, best quality boxes of copper plated rounds for my Ruger Mk II which is fussy about fodder. I hereby apologize for hoarding. Probably do it again if we’re in the same situation.
BTW. I Love CB caps for offing vermin in ‘close neighbor’ situations. Pffft they go....quieter than a pellet gun.

That's funny. I don't consider 22000 rounds hoarding.

Thanks for that info.!

Good article & comments, here:

http://tacticalintelligence.net/blog/22-cb-cap.htm

What’s the energy delivery, typically, of a .22 CB cap compared to, say, my .22 break barrel pellet rifle (which should have a muzzle velocity around 850 fps with the Crossman “Destroyer” pellets.)

The break barrel pellet rifle gets very unwieldy in certain close quarter situations, say, a big opossum inside the chicken house. I’m thinking CB cap in my long barrel .22 revolver? (One would still have to be very careful of ricochet in case the darn critter moves its head just as the shot is taken.)
