    it a shame in Reality that ammo purchase is attached at the hip to politics .....But

    Anybody Not picked up 'at least' 20 Bricks of there favorite .22LR ammo yet ??? . being that most everything is stocked and available out there for retail sales .
    Lot of people saying this time slot, is about as friendly as you are ever going to have it in your lifetime before the 'repeat' frenzy buying and hording start again with upcoming anti-2nd political agenda's and regime change.

    ya.. can't go wrong with just the CCI std. Vel 40 grain . I got more than 3 cases of that and still will grab another case or two, I do wish that CCI had just a tad softer lead formula but ... it is great All-Around Go-To for the suppressed pistol and 16" barrel rifle .

    I not in love with Aguila, but Aguila not bad and the ONLY one I really love but I cant find anymore is the ( SE 38 grn.HP subsonic ) . I still got about 4 or 5 bricks of it stashed from several cases I bought many years back, but I have not seen it for several years now . I would give a left nut for a couple cases of it and someone to have it in-stock again .

    I just thinking back when BO came into power and the shelves just emptied overnight and finding .22 was a part-time job . I NOT going threw that bullshit again when the Don done gone and more panic buying sets in overnight for those that wait till last minute the day after it's to late . I will have at least 50-k of .22lr for my .22 plinking when the tides change .

    In most of my 22 rifles, the Aguila and CCI SV are pretty close in performance. I have one that really doesn't like the Aguila SV. Considering it only cost me 80% of the price of CCI SV, it's a pretty good buy if for nothing else than practice ammo.

    One of the local guys has a custom 10/22 he put together. One day at the range he was testing ammo and I convinced him to try the Aguila SV. Of the several types of ammo (including a few different Eley) he tried, the Aguila SV shot the second best group for the day. In no way am I implying that Aguila SV is match ammo. Just on that particular day, with that specific rifle, it performed very well.
     
    CCI SV an Velocitor's
    Aguila SSS an Interceptors
    Cover all things 22 for me.
    Always buy what you can't make that could be gone tomorrow with just ink. Yes blood will produce street resupply at some point but you might have to have some to get to that point.
