10 New .22 LR Rounds JUST Announced for 2025…

That's great---10 new (read: expensive) 22LR rounds---some more than I used to pay for 9mm ammo! Good thing I bought large amounts of 22 ammo way (WAY!) back before anybody even heard a rumor of a 22 shortage, at prices that will NEVER be seen again! At this point, I have a lifetime supply (maybe more)...
 
I think the older we get, we ALL seem to come back full circle from where we first started shooting. My first gun/rifle was a Glenfield Model 60. Still got it and still looks brand new.......Foe me, I graduated to 38's, 357, and of courses, thousands & thousands of 9mm.........And what gives me the biggest kick now is back to the 22.....The model 60, my 10/22's, my Single Sixes, and of course, my good old H&R Modell 999.......🙂🙂
My first was a Ithaca model 49 lever action single shot I believe when I was 12 for Christmas. Asked for a Benjamin air rifle, had no idea I would get a real gun. I think I slept with it for a few months. I still have it also. I have made some pretty amazing shots with it including shooting clay pigeons I threw with a hand thrower. You are reminding me I need to pull it out from the back of the safe and give it some use. Been using the 10/22, mark 4 target ,617, buckmarks and others. always go back to the 22's for little stints here and there.
 
Ironically, my second gun/rifle was a Sears Roebuck single shot lever carbine which I believe was made by Ithaca. Still have it and actually bought a second of these same type of single shot lever carbines when Sears clearance it at half price or less !! I'm talking about 1979 or so. Both of these single shot lever carbines got a LOT of use with my Boy Scout troop for sure.....Still have them. The boy scouts are all grown up and married, etc but the 22's are still here. Lots of great memories made with those guns !!

This would have been 1975 and it sold for 49$ same as the model #
