22LR Ammo

It's been a very long time since I ordered any ammo. Did a search for the heck of it, and surprisingly could not find RWS or Eley sub sonic hp's. Most are "out of stock" or "discontinued". Some have it for almost $8.50 to $10.00. I have plenty of 22lr ammo, so no worries. But what happened?

😂 Man you guys think $10 a box for German 22 is pricey. In my neck of the woods your lucky if you get it for $25 a box after tax. Oh and since we can't mail order it your gonna have to drive around and find it first 😂. Just purchased 6850 rounds of Federal champion 36 grain copper washed HP for $520.

It can on occasion be surprisingly good. It can also be lacking. Main problem with Wolfe, IME, is consistency, both from purchase to purchase and within a given lot.
That said, at around $8 per box (which Target Sports USA gets for it) Wolf Match Extra is probably as good as gamble as Eley Club, maybe even a little better ... but neither are true match quality ammos, IME.
Lot of people think Wolfe Match Extra is essentially Eley Club with the lube specified by Wolf, while Wolf Match Target is basically Eley Target with Wolfe's specified lube. They might be right.
