Does Browning/FN own Winchester ammunition now too? Last I heard Olin still owns Winchester ammo. Bought 600 rds. of .22LR WW Hyper Velocity 40 grs. today, and they still say Olin on the bottom of the boxes.

Thank you guys for all the good responses.

I wasn't aware that it was foreign made ammo until I looked at the box. Obviously try to buy American if possible but 22lr is still a little hard to find, especially locally.


These are hollow points, 'high velocity'...


Midway has CCI round nose and Winchester hollow points so I ordered 1k of those last night.


It seems like everything is about 10 cents a pop.



Grafs actually had free shipping and 16 gauge Fiocchi nickel plated #5's for $12.50 a box, now that is a deal!

I've been dealing with Graf for about the last 14 years and have found their customer service and pricing to be excellent. And I did order a brick of Armscor from them yesterday.

Hi Steve,

Yeah, I've had good luck with Graf & Sons. Would be interested to hear how the Armscor shoots in your .22's.

John,
I'll report in when the ammo arrives and I have a chance to shoot it.

I've shot almost a 500 rd brick of Arms corp over the last couple months. Just pinking with a couple of 10/22's, one suppressed, and my P22 and suppressor. It's one of the few ammos that cycles my P22 with the can on the end just fine. Has fed and shot well. Puts holes in cans and targets just fine. Haven't hunted with any or shot groups. I'd gladly buy another brick if I could find it.

I've tried some Armscor .22 Mag ammo, it was "okay" but nothing special, AND they want a premium for it around here.


I really like the Aguila Super Extra. It works very well in semi-autos and is quite accurate. I mostly use it to shoot Speed Steel matches. I've never done any hunting with it. I just bought some at $.08 per round.
