1250 fps

I guess the Dentist must have polished away some brain cells this AM. My bad.   ???   I just didn't want to believe that that price was accurate. That's nuts.

I read it as 1250 round box, which would be just over $0.03 per round. Good deal.

Fine print on box sez 50 Cartridges.
Fine print in ad copy sez 50 Round Box.
Not Good Deal for me.

At that price I'll find some way to reload .22LRs.

CTD could be selling .22 ammo for $0.03 and I'd pass on it. I hate those vile bastards that much!

I don't know...for $0.03/rd, I might buy some from CTD.  But I'd feel dirty and wouldn't like myself afterwards... ;)

But, she DID give you a classic example of her liberal tolerance!

The best is when we agree on a political topic but she insists on lambasting my reasoning on why I came to the same conclusion as hers, even if hers' is drastically illogical.

The other thing that gets me is when she takes a stand on something and then a year or two later I'll bring up a story that I see in the news with swapped parties and she can't come to their defense fast enough. I giggle on the inside and occasionally call her out on it. Don't even get me started on her TM vs GZ rant...

Also, you're starting to see private sellers lower their prices to just above retail + tax. Granted it is available since going to the store may be a crap shoot, but that's a good sign.

IIRC, the ATF individual limit to gun power possession is 50 lbs.  You're holding 168 lbs. ???

What they don't know won't hurt them and I don't believe it is an ATF rule as much as an NFPA standard.

I will believe the ammo panic is over when I can buy 22lr at my convenience from Wal-Mart....not that I need any though.

I believe that is a NFPA standard. 

I'm not sure the ATF has a limit.  I don't recall seeing one for smokeless powder.

...Original post deleted...

Ignore me here.  I was speculating, and that isn't a good idea when discussing rules and regulations that are important.

NFPA= National Fire Prevention Act????

I still derive a perverse pleasure when i tell someone that I can buy their Gen4 Glock for $545 new and they are asking $600 for it used.

Not that I would buy a Glock...
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.
