I have been buying 12 gauge 'target rounds' #8 and #7.5 for 15 cents each versus 22LR for 10 cents each. If you want to do hunting, it makes so much more sense.
if it's about self-defense, there are better more cost-effective calibers, you can find nine mil for not much more, even 380 or 32. So that doesn't make sense either.
I was going to get a Ruger 10/22 but with the price insanity decided to build a 9mm carbine instead. Ammo is always there, it's not that much more expensive and a hell of a lot more practical. If I hunted , I wouldn't use Ruger 10/22 anyway since 12 gauge is so much more practical and not significantly more expensive.
22LR made sense at 2 - 3 cents per round and does not make any sense at 8 or 10 CPR.
