.22 Short Ammo

[Wdodd]

Stopped by Sportsman’s in Murfreesboro this afternoon and left with a few boxes of .22 Shorts @ $4.89 per box.  Could hardly believe that price!!

Loading up a Remington Speedmaster with shorts is more fun than a barrel full of monkeys!

Finding a box for sale is nearly that fun.

I have a couple of bricks of shorts in my stash!

Local WM had .22 short H. P. last week,have not seen in two years.

Didn't even know they made HP shorts. I too have a few boxes shorts stashed away. I have a Winchester 290 semi that will shoots S/L/LR. It is kind of fun to load it ups with shorts and have something like 21 rounds in the tube. It will cycle CCI Quiet .22s which are also fun since they are like shooting with a suppressor.

I see it's an old thread.

All the 22 shorts I can find are CB's, $11 per 100.

I don't know if you use TargetSports (I'm a discount member) but they have Armscor .22 short 29 gr solids for $50.59/500.

They list several OOS .22 shorts including CCI 27 gr HP. You can set up notifications easily and I've had pretty good luck doing so over the past several months.

Heck, I don't even need any and it's tempting

I remember buying Federal .22 shorts for $0.22 a box at our local Western Auto store. You could buy .22 LR for $0.27 per box - I bought the shorts 'cause they worked as well as LR on squirrels, frogs, rabbits, etc. as the LR's and I actually got change from $1.00! At the time my weekly allowance was $1.00, so being able to buy 4 boxes for less than a buck and actually get some change was a winner to me! I could usually stretch those 200 rds. to last a full week, but sometimes it was tough to do!

There was a free newspaper for our area and Western Auto had an ad on both center pages. We collected a few papers from neighbors that didn't want it. A coupon for Western Auto 22 shorts a nickel or dime per box with a limit of 4. We had 10 brick before buying a rifle that would shoot shorts. Dad would let us shoot the pistol.

I loved Western Auto store I wish it and Sears were still open
