that norma tac 22 is the absolute worst stuff I ever did use. the lube has low melting point and gunks up everything, gets all over your fingers and hands, and it won't cycle anything semi auto ive ever put it in. or maybe I just got a couple bricks of lemons. ive heard a lot of bad about the m22 stuff but I got a double box of 1000 a couple years ago and tried a dozen or so from each box and they worked as good as the 555 boxes anyway. I really like dyna-points and 555's work great for me, first time I ever saw super x in yellow box of 300 was yesterday at Walmart . makes me wonder if all this winchester 22 ammo comes out of the same plant with different boxes.
22mag --- $18 maxi mags, that's definitely not double of what it was before everything went crazy. whereas 22lr ammo is now double or more than what it was. I think I was paying like $12-$14 for name brand stuff besides the hornady 30 gr. and $9.99 for the armscor stuff.
makes me wonder whatever happened to 17 wsm, that stuff was everywhere for cheap during last shortage, nobody seemed to have a gun chambered for it.
