I finally got my 70th anniversary ammo shown here with my Ruger American rollout ammo. Is there any other Ruger "collector" .22 ammo?

I'm still in search of the American .22 rf ammo for my collection.
And to answer your question,, yes,, there was some other .22 ammo made decades ago,, and I've only seen a few boxes. None were for sale. I'll see if I can find my picture.

I looked,, and my picture wasn't where I thought it was. I'll see if I can find one.
Basically,, it's a very plain box & most likely from the late 1950's to the early 1960's if my memory is correct.

I believe there's a picture of it in John Dougan book.

It has a Super X head stamp. The 70th ammo ships from CCI.

Do you have any idea who manufactured it?

Bought mine thru TargetSports. It arrived in a week and a half, for $3 less per box. 8)

"I believe there's a picture of it in John Dougan book."
Bingo!!!!!!!
I have a picture I took of a box somewhere,, but Dougans book has an excellent picture of the ammo. Page 76,, of his book; "The Vintage Years!" Also a brief description of it as best he could find. Made "prior to 1961!"

They must have not got the memo. They did not F me. :lol:
I did check with them. TargetSports does charge sales tax for buyers registered in states that require sales tax to be collected.

Guess I won't be adding any unless I stumble across some at a store. CA new ammo law makes it very hard and expensive to mail order ammo.

Super X headstamp is Winchester not CCI.
Yes it is. That's what's on the 2013 ammo.
How were yours packaged? When my boys were in Cub Scouts they had an egg drop every year where they had to package a raw egg to survive a drop. Then they were all loaded in a National Guard helicopter and dumped out from the air. That's the way the ammo I got was packaged. I think it would have survived the fall. I guess Ruger learned something from the 2013 debacle.
