Larry...
Are you looking for the 711B subsonic target ammo (1080 fps) or the 719 standard velocity target ammo (1200 fps) I always get the 711B, it works great in my browning Buckmark, so-so in my semi auto rifles. I hope to test it in a couple of bolt rifles this weekend, but the wind has been an issue for testing rimfire ammo lately.... The last time I ordered the 711B I think it was around $42.00 for a brick of 500 rounds......

I am using Federal 711B and paid $48.00/brick from Natchez Shooters Supply. I was hoping to find it cheaper. I am now looking for a deal on Eley Sport .22. Thanks, Larry

The prices have gone crazy across the board on rimfire ammo.....
![]() It wasn't that long ago I was paying $11.99 for a brick of CCI Blazers, now the local gun shop is selling them for $18.99....(and that's only when they can get it in) I shoot CCI Standard Velocity a lot, that went up a dollar per box of 100, which equates to a 5 dollar increase per brick......still a lot cheaper than center fire, and a whole lot of fun..... ![]()

I just checked Champion Shooters Supply, and they have it at $7.00 per box of 100 rounds. Locally I'm paying $7.99.....(3 months ago when I purchased the last they had on the shelf I paid $6.99) I buy the CCI Std. Vel. locally because they almost always have it on the shelf, I'll mail order the more exotic stuff like SK Std.+, RWS Target Rifle, Eley, and the Federal Gold Match (711B) since the local shop doesn't carry it. The last 500 round brick I ordered from MidwayUSA cost me an extra $10.58 in shipping, so the shipping costs kinda makes it a wash compared to paying slightly higher prices locally......
