Does anyone know where I can bulk order .22lr? My usual spots don't seem to carry my S&W's favorite snack (CCI Standard Velocity 40 gr round nose bulk pack)

I can find the 100 packs but not the 500 bulk pack. I checked Natchez SS, Cabela's, and Cheaper than Dirt. Any other suggestions?

Got my last 500rd box of CCI at Dicks in Rockaway....

Cabelas....

I am going to order that 2100 round bulk pack as I am pretty set on the S&W 15-22 for my next gun.

 

Altho I have never shot it, experienced shooters telling me it is the most fun gun they have is enough for me

 

Of course I will be going thru our link to order the ammo

I can attest that the 15-22 loves the federal stuff. =)

 

on wed I shot both the 36gr and 40 gr federal stuff, along with CCI mini mags and all shot very well.

Oh well, backordered for 4-6 weeks.

This seller on Auction Arms is auctioning 5,000 rds. of Federal with free shipping. The last 2 auctions went for about $182.00. I have purchased from them and they are great people.

What are you feeding the 22A? I have not had a single round fail to fire or eject out of that whole brick of CCI standard that I had. Mini Mag$ I think I had 1 fail to load and another take 2 strikes of the firing pin to go. I'm curious what's working for you.

everything I feed now works well... except the remington golden bullets.

Natchez typically has good prices, I used to get CCI Mini Mag's 40gr for $5.50 a box before the ammo hike.

I think they are around $6.00 now when they have them.

Grafs has the fed 525 bulk packs for 18ish last time i checked, free shipping

That's strange I can feed it Remington Goldens, but not Winchester Wildcats. I'll have to try the Federal plated Wed. when I go. Amer. Eagle plated HPs shoot well except one won't load every 15 rounds or so. At least they're not all duds like Remington Thunderbolts. :roll:

remington goldens work, dont take it the wrong way.... except they suck.... and dirty the gun up. =)

 

I also had issues with winchester wildcats.

 

After about 2k rounds, it fed reliably. The first 2k rounds, I would have an issue where it wouldnt feed the third round (notch in the mag).

 

It also had more issues with hollow points over solid nose.

Wideners has a selection of various .22lr for well under $20 per 500rd brick. If you order a case of 5000 it gets slightly cheaper.

Have you tried Blazer at all? I know CCI makes them. I contacted customer service and it seems they are no longer manufacturing CCI Standard bulk packs. Why sell 500 rounds for $20 when you can break it up into 100 packs and charge twice as much because it comes in a "reusable plastic container". :roll:

 

Round rose feed better in mine. Even the federal 40 gr round nose solids aren't that bad. I haven't cleaned it yet so I don't know how dirty it's going to be. Toothpicks and Q-Tips are cheaper than Mini-Mags so I don't mind cleaning a little extra gunk out.

 

I have the Federal 525 round 36 gr HP plated pack. Some of the rounds have turned black. Is that normal?

yup, at first I used CCI Blazer bricks....

 

I had a hard time finding them, switched to federal. Federal a bit cleaner I believe.

Plated or just lead round nose?
