I've been seeing cci standard velocity for $0.10/shot, which is tolerable IMO.
?? $50/brick is 'tolerable'? Eeeek..
Not to me it ain't...
Was in Fleet Farm yesterday and, as usual, the shelf where the .22 ammo is located looked like Mother Hubbard's cupboard... I don't even bother with Wal-Mart any longer.
But I did notice (other topic, sorry) that the powder supply in the local store's getting back to near-normal.. A couple months ago they had only about 20% of what they normally stock on hand.. Last week it looked like it was back to about 80% of normal.. That, at least, was a bit encouraging..
