Been a while since I had to get 22mag, but last round I bought was $9.00 for a brick. I don't expect to have to buy again for the rest of my life, but .223 easily costs a lot more if your getting anything decent. Would love to find some 55gr v-max at a reasonable price.
Roger that!👍👍 I have a lot of V-max myself! Great stuff! Im not sure exactly what you mean by a brick, but a 50 round box of CCI V-Max here on the Isle Royal is over 10.00!! A brick of .22LR at my LGS is 1000 rounds.

Besides safety around kids it's easy to see why you chose tractor over skid steer
Some choices are easier than others. There might have been other things I would have chosen, but when my friend offered me this one for $2000 with bush hog and grader box, 248 hours, I just said, yep!

Pretty much vaporizes stuff.

I've got some 110 grain pills I wanna load up in the 300wm at about 3800 fps.... should be useful for shooting stuff.

Brick = 50 rounds in magnum rimfire for some reason.
I was referring to .223 in v-max, but I'd take it in 22mag as well.

I know what you mean! Ive chosen to stop executing face cuts to speed productivity while saving time in the process! 👍 It was an easy choice! 🤷

You should see how surgical a .22Mag 30gr VMX is on tree squirrels! You mentioned something about vaporizing?

For sure. It's nice because when you don't have a bunch of buddies around to lift something like that you can still get the job done.
I like the use of those cans on the steps.
Ya the cans were on it when I bought the truck . The cans are older than my wife stamp dated under the lid 1964 . Picking up the truck in South Carolina A42C7C47-E97D-4F03-8ABE-77314B23F4EB.jpeg
