    5.6x50R, Any ammo/brass about.

    The twist and turns of life, have left me with a rather nice used K95 Blaser in 7x65, I like to order a lighter caliber, and the choices are .22 hornet, 5.6x50R, in a rimmed case. My preference is rimmed, otherwise it either .222 or .243, 6XC, the .243 being the logical choice of these three.
    The .223 would be perfect but its not an option. basically something for small game and goats/Fallow, the 5.6x50R is about right, up to 70gr weight.
    But hardly any ammo brass, here in Canada, and we are selling up, and moving back to NZ late 2024, so a couple interchange barrel rifles, make more sense than a dozen bolt actions.

    So has anyone seen any brass or ammo, for a 5.6x50R in there travels.
