I think the last 3 boxes of that I picked up at Walmart were about that price. It was the cheapest thing I saw and since it was used for the boys to shoot pistols anything that shoots was good enough. I didn't want them burning up my good ammo shooting handguns at 15 yards.

more like round nose projectile ,bulk packaging with 325 loose rounds in the box

not intended for hunting or personal protection just training.

Its NOT training ammo.Some bonehead just wrote that in the adversisement.It doesn't say that anywhere on the box.I have quite a few boxes of it.My hunting rounds are CCI Stingers,however those Federals are 1200 feet per second.Wich is pretty much standard velocity.They are not under-powdered.I wouldn't hesitate to shoot squirrels with them.That is about the same price I paid for all mine at wallmart.They still have a mountain of them at that price there.

shooting squirrels with round nose non hollow point is a good way to get squirrels that run away , the round zips through leaving a .22 hole they die but under blow down or high in the tree with a round through them. unless you get a headshot on every one.

I have used auto match a couple cases of it , I think training ammo is rather appropriate , it isn't intended for game and I wouldn't want big money on a match with it.

you could use it for dispatch because you do pick perfect shots when something can't run off.

so training while not on the box is about right in my opinion anything that isn't a scored competition for prize , hunting or personal defense is training.

No squirrels will run off If shot in the head with those bullets.

my cousin used to have a hollow pointing tool for .22 ammo. it was pretty slick. he found what shot best in his rifles, it happened to be a round nose bullet, and added his own hollow point for squirrel hunting.

Just a few years ago I bought 500rd bricks of standard velocity CCI for $16. I bought 3" .410 for $8.99. I don't see "ammo dropping". I see people getting screwed so bad they celebrate when the prices come down to only twice as much as it should be. Just like celebrating gas prices dropping under $3 a gallon.

pacos kelly tool there may be some others

I have looked into them it has been a while and I never did shell out the cash
I came into some 300 round mini mag packs for a reasonable enough price it would take about 4000 regular 22lr turned into hp to pay for the tool
I just don't need that many hp 22lr when I really only use around 300 a year

Say all you want.Like I said,,my hunting rounds are CCI Stingers,,HOWEVER,,I wish I had a dollar for every squirrel that was killed with ammo like that shown.

There still is no .444 ammo or .410 stuff on the shelves along with other popular calibers around here. I did find some .444 ammo the other day for 92.00 a box. I’ll use it as a club before I pay that.

LOL hunted for years with solid nose. Hollow point are head only or it would cut a squirrel in to. Head shot with a pellet rifle is dead squirrel .Lety alone a 22 long rifle..
