Part No. / Description / MSRP
720 / Hunter Match .22 LR HV 40-grain HP, 50-count / $7.95
I do not use .22 for plinking as I believe that one should use the same ammo for practice that one uses on a regular basis. Also at the price of .22s these, days, there isn’t much difference in price. But then , of course, I still have several “bricks that i paid $9.95 for! When the price returns to what it should be, maybe I’ll return to burning ammo in my AR-7.
I dunno about paying $8 for 50 rounds of .22 unless it’s the only available option. Seems strange to me that this will ever be available in any serious quantity when store shelves still can’t get any serious supply of plain old 510s.
Don’t forget, that is MSRP. I am sure the street price, especially at Cheaper Than Dirt! will be much lower. ~Dave Dolbee
