You are correct. Midway has it with one 500 box limit.

The CMP (Civilian Marksmanship Progran) has (had?) .22rf ammution. There are some requirements to qualify, but a quick check with their web site will give you first hand information. Mostly it is for organizations such as junior Marksmanship Clubs, Scout Troops, ROTC , and their members.
If you need a couple of boxes every other month or so, it might not be your best cost effective source.

Give GrabAGun a call, they had some last time I was there. I don't believe they show it on their website.

Re: Need 22lr to teach my boys to shoot
Thanks for the suggestions. I've looked at the sites, and all I see is subsonic stuff, or 20gr no-powder. Not familiar with the subsonic stuff, has anybody tried it in a semi-auto? Will it cycle an m&p 15-22, ruger 10-22 and sr-22? Doesn't need to be target grade, but does need to work a SA.

Re: Need 22lr to teach my boys to shoot
All I shoot in my 10/22 is subsonic. Don't get the super colibri though, it will not cycle and may not even clear the barrel. The Aguila Super Extra Subs are good to go inside 60 yards.bagman45 wrote:Thanks for the suggestions. I've looked at the sites, and all I see is subsonic stuff, or 20gr no-powder.

Thanks, anybody used the subsonic in an M&P 15-22? Any specific subsonic brands to avoid or look for? Thanks!
