So far, I've been able to buy what I need without resorting to buying Remington rimfire stuff, which I don't care to use in any of my rimfires. Remington's reputation for rimfire ammo is now so bad that you can find it almost anywhere you look. I could use Remington if I had to, but I haven't had to resort to that, yet.

The supply of my favorite stuff is loosening up a bit, I can usually find it if I go looking for it, and other suitable substitutes if I can't find that particular load.

Meantime, I've got some old production WW Power Points, some of the Aguila "Mexican Mini-Mags" and Winchester 555 bulk packs and Federal AutoMatch to plink with, so I've not been completely out of .22 shooting when I wanted to do so.

I'd like to see the prices drop back to pre-Obama times, but that ain't gonna happen, so I'm going to suck it up and pay what I have to pay, for what I want to use.


You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
