What's a 'good' price for Mini-Mags? Both as today and what they useta-was.

I left it at around 2400 to 2600 psi usually, not fully pressurized to 3000 or 200 Bar, but probably too much. It's an Evanix and I've read quite a bit about leaks with them. It needs an oring on the inlet valve and a new outlet/firing valve stem which is delrin. I haven't really searched for parts since right now I really can't afford to spend any to fix it, but maybe soon.

If you have trouble locating the parts in the US, give me a shout as I believe they are fairly popular over here in the UK..

I was in Raleigh yesterday, new hunting/fishing store just opened last weekend: Field and Stream, intersection of NC540 & NC55 (Cary?). I bought a brick of Remington Thunderbolt for $25.99 and a pail (1400 rounds) of Remington Golden Bullet for $60.90. At 5� per round it was the cheapest I have seen 22LR in awhile. If you live in the triangle area they still had a decent supply when I was there (around noon on 9/10).

It's pretty sad to see these prices. I remember 22LR for $0.99/box and I'm pretty young yet. $5.50 seems criminal...especially for non match stuff.
I can run into a brick here and there for $25. A nickel a shot is still pretty tough, but doable.
The worst of this all is when I see stories of 4H clubs and the like not being able to do their normal training due to the cost/availability of 22LR. That's pretty sad, to me. I'm not young and I remember it at a penny a round. $5.00 a brick. But, that was probably about the same cost as the 10 cents a round in real money value.

I got a 300 ok of CCI mini-mags for $21. Seemed $7/100 wasn't too bad for a better load. Plenty of plinking type ammo available in spirts.
