More questions on .22 ammo....
After reading the post inquiring about .22 shorts, I remembered that I wanted to ask if anyone knows if .22 CB's or BB's are still available?? I believe they were primarily used in the shooting booths at the county fairs and such places. They were also great medicine for backyard pests (sparrows, chipmunks, etc.) Would love to get some if they are being made yet............

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
Yep!! That's what I'm looking for.....Do you know what company produces them, and/or where you can get them? Are they available mail order from any shooting supply houses that you know of? Any info would be appreciated..... Haven't seen them in any of the local gun or hardware stores around here for a long time Here in WesternPA.

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
I found them at Midsouth Shooters Supply...Both the CB Shorts and the CB Longs...CCI makes both...go to rimfire and then "Hunting/Hi Velocity" loads...

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
Thanks again...I know I have a current catalog here somewhere. I'll give it a look, and if I don't see them there, I'll try the website. You've been very helpful.

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
check your walmarts...even though most of you guys HATE walmart lol. i know my walmart has some CB longs and Shorts. CCI makes them. we used to use them for coon hunting when the dog would end up closer to peoples houses then we intended..but not close enough to stop us from shooting.

There's also .22 shotshells.
|
RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
Yeah...The .22 shotshells are fun stuff, too. I use them primarily on the carpenter bees around here in the spring. Just love it when they hover in the air for a second or two... Tried them in one of my .22 revolvers on the bees, but had much better results using a rifle. Thanks for the idea.....

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
Not sure these are what your looking for as they are in long rifle. But i picked up a few boxes by mailorder while ordering some other things. Aguila - 22. colibri at that Natchez reloading supply place not to long ago. They have no gunpowder in them just the primer compound& 20 grain bullets- there very mild& quiet.

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
Just wanted to thank all who took the time to try and help me find what I was looking for and advise me. I have located both CB Longs and Shorts, and what the dealer called "caps" I believe. They are only about a 1/4" long, and cost @ $13.00/100. Expensive little buggers. I bought a box of 100 Longs, brought them home and tried a few out on some fenceposts in the backyard. Very little report, and seem to be quite accurate. I'm a happy man. Thanks again.........................

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
I guess my last post kind of lead you to believe I paid $13.00 for the CB Longs. That price was for those very tiny ones that he called the .22 "caps". The CB Longs cost $5.95/100. Sorry for the confusion.......

RE: More questions on .22 ammo....
Your welcome. Wowo Those caps are a bit. I think i payed $1.35 per 50 for those Colibri 22.s
