You can render the hoarders irrelevant by casting and reloading. Is cheaper than a fair bit of .22rf ammo these days. Also beats bitchin' by a mile or so.
Sorry, Dan, but that's a pretty narrow point of view. If you just want to shoot, of course there are alternatives. For shooters like me, whose interests run to smallbore competition of various kinds, and have a considerable investment in .22 rimfire firearms, you need .22 ammo and probably some specific kinds.
I made the Monday morning lineup at Sportsman's Warehouse yesterday, and missed by one place in line the CCI Mini-Mag one of my guns prefers. Oh well, we all do what we have to do.
