Plenty of 22 if you know where to look.

That SK standard plus is good ammo but it sure is greasy. I wish I could get some more CCI standard velocity without having to pay 12 cents or more a round.
KUSA hit the nail on the head. If you want to pay RIDICULOUS prices for 22 amo, go to gunbot, but I don't know anyone who's willing to pay those prices for bullets that should cost 5 cents per. I don't think it's going to end any time soon either.
Except I wasn't paying 5 cents per to begin with. I was paying 9. Now I'm paying 13.8. About a 50% premium. Ammo costs are what they are right now. and 13.8 cents a round for premium as opposed to crap ammo is still a lot cheaper than anything in centerfire.
As far as gunbot goes it is a tool that tells you what is available where and for how much. I don't have a problem using a tool that lets me know what is in stock where and how much it costs. Frankly I don't understand why anyone would. Besides the first thing on the .22 lr list right now is $0.08 cents a round for decent ammo. As far as I'm concerned that's a better value than say a Federal 550 value pack even at 5 cents each.

Yea it is, but that Volquartsen barrel I posted on page one really likes it.
