Why limit yourself to 70% less shots for the same price? Or if you're spending that much on ammo why limit yourself to a wee rimfire, just use a 223 instead.

If you get to shoot a fair few then the 22lr is the way to go. Shooting the best part of 200 in a night would get pretty pricey with anything else.

Depends what you are shooting Umm not sure if I would shoot at starlings and myna birds nesting in my sheds with a 223 22 won't do the distance no way and 17 is the perfect round for it Hollow points humane kill don't come out the other side or cause problems . I have two 22s and two 223 s 1 .17 all different tools .17 three times the use of the others effortlessly Day you can't afford ammo can't be fun tho.

Some people prioritise their wealth on things that matter. Beer vs ammo. Awesome pill for those kiwi bears in the defrocked willows starting June.Put an A60 lite on top and you will be a contract killa.
