They have not grouped well for me in the past. As far as if you should sell, now is a great time if you want to line your pockets with greenbacks. Just remember what you sell now you may or may not be able to replace anytime soon. Then the question is at what cost to you down the road.

https://www.cci-ammunition.com/rimfire/cci/velocitor_hp/6-47.html090000009Velocitors shoot pretty well in my 7722 / Green Mountain barrel. 1435 fps, 40gr hollow points. Good enough for groundhogs and snapping turtles out to 75 yards. Haven't seen the amber boxes for quite a while.

I haven't seen any Velocitors lately, I DID see some CCI SGB (small game bullets) last weekend, but they wanted, ahem............................................$17.99/box for them. Naturally, I walked away, shaking my head. Even bulk Federal 800ct. boxes were $119.99 (15cents/rd).
I have plenty of plinking ammo of my choice, I had no need for either of those loads. Happily enough, I have about 30K rounds of ammo stashed away, it'll keep me going for quite awhile.

Bought a 250 rd ct box of aquila 38 gr hollow points copper plated high speed load for$15.99 and sales tax today at Fleet & Farm. Pretty fair buy compared to some out there they have a pretty good pile of it and are limiting to 1 box. Made the rounds at other places went back changed hats put on sunglasses and bought another box and I'll do again tomorrow till they run out. Lol mb

cci has had them in stock fairly regularly the past month. I picked up a case. Just have to check their site a few times a day.

I have what amounts to over a brick of them. Unfortunately, they've not grouped well with any of my rifles or handguns. I've relegated them to emergency reserve and will test them in my next new rifle or pistol acquisition.

Regards all, hope everyone is doing well. (outahere)- "Best hunting round". Agree. Ordered direct from CCI about three weeks ago, ten sleeves of 50 limit. After shipping & tax (KY) just over $100.00. A year ago, picked up two bricks for less. Velocitors for small varmints, MiniMags or Norma "Match" for plinking. In my 77/22 Velocitors are reliable for their intended purpose: https://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=11582349&postcount=404
