I see a box or 2 occasionally every few years and buy it in case I get something to shoot it in and needs it.

pworley1, my pick as best rifle, by a hair, is the Winchester.

I found 2 CCI Varmint packs of 125 rounds each in Walmart over the weekend. I bought them. They were about $27.50 before tax. It has been long since I saw 22 wmr there.

My guess is that...
