CCI 22 ammo boxs

[Kevin G]

With respect to the empty boxes, I believe the logic was that if one watered the boxes and left them in the sun, over time they would generate new ammo.
Please keep in mind that a .22 shortage exists, Chicken Little is alive and well running amok.

Maybe--I was just now going through my empty slides with an eye toward putting some up on ebay. Lo and behold, I found a live round. So who knows what they're capable of.

I'd just be happy to find some CCIs. No where to be found around here.

Scored 2 of the 100 rd old style plastic boxes today. Thought they were 40gr Minimags but when I went to put 'em away (wearing my glasses) I discovered they were actually the Standard Velocity! I also have a bunch of the SV in the cardboard 50rd boxes.

.22 lr ammo up here in the Northwest area of Oregon is still a rare site after nearly 3 years. I just don't know why another manufacture does not open a plant in the U.S. and adds another 5-10 million rounds a day of .22 lr
.

Current production is not enough to meet demand. Hoarding .22 lr ammo etc is no longer the reason for the shortage. More .22 owners, 22 conversion kits mean more .22 lr demand than 4 years ago.

I absolutely loathe the plastic boxes CCI uses: tiny crumbs of dust/sand from my desert range make them just about impossible to open without hammering of some sort.

The LGS here managed to get the full range of CCI .22 in stock recently including something I've never seen before called CCI tactical. At 400 rounds to the brick and more expensive than the SV, guess what I took home?

He even had bricks of CCI manufactured Blazer .22 in stock, selling for less than the Winchester bulk packs.

I unapologetically stocked up.
