Defensive HP that I paid $12.00 a box for was $60.00 a box not long later. If you could find it.
I bought out one store - of Federal 22 LR in the 550 bulk packs - close to 20 years ago. The kid working sporting goods balked... Thought it was illegal to sell that much. I asked for the manager... The manager told the kid - get a cart and help the man to his car with his ammo. Paid $8.96 a box. Still have a couple.
Sold it to the shop I used to work at during the last shortage. $40 a box.
Replaced it at $18 two years ago.( not quite as much).
Keep it in sealed cans - it will last lifetimes.
Essentially - I shoot 22 for free...
