    First I've seen these in a while.

    Wow! 11 cents a shot for 40+ year old Russian ammo that their supplier assures them is free of major corrosion.

    Of course I haven't seen short in a long time either...

    Thanks, BB. I posted a thread asking about them a while back. At that price, though, I'll let 'em sit. I just nearly had a coniption fit over paying nearly $50 for a brick of CCI std. vel. LR's. Us old guys who remember thinking a penny a piece was awfully high, have a REAL hard time with sticker shock on ALL .22's now. Sometimes .... life's just hard. But thanks for posting, though. Good to know SOMEbody's still making them! I'm hoping against hope that Trump will somehow enable prices on RF ammo to come down. Rimfire ammo is what teaches our kids to shoot, and enjoy the experience. That ain't no small thing, and having it priced so high .... well, it doesn't bode well for the future of marksmanship in the nation. And that is not a good thing at all!

    Those are from the 70s... we still don't know if anyone is making them.
