Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Small Game Ok What to replace 22 lr

Yep, rocks are cheap and easy to find too... If we are going to imagine 22lr are no longer to be found, we need to be thinking outside of the box. Go old school, if need be.. I've been shooting the chidt out of 22lr lately. Trying to break in a barrel on a new 10-22. 510 rounds in one day, but to not be able to find 22lr, damn that will be the day.. I'm also going to be shooting my clubs rimfire match this weekend, so we will be burning up a few thousand rounds of 22lr that day. Just sayin...


Hell, maybe I'll just shoot my 17HMR's, that way I won't have to worry about it...

I’ve managed to cobble together a fair amount of SK RM & FN, some Eley Club, and a brick’s worth of Velocitors. Haven't over-paid either.

If you hand load, 22 hornet. You can even cast bullets. 17 hmr seems to be plentiful when .22 is unavailable.
