I'm not a member of the CMP, so can I scan my cards of local sportsmans clubs to order? Also do I need my birth certificate? Or is a driver's license ok?

That comes to basically $9 per box of 500rounds, which is half the price of walmart.

There is a reason why it's so cheap....anyone who shoots Remington 22LR knows it's garbage ammo. It's dirty and unreliable. I personally wouldn't shoot this ammo if it was free

I bought two cases about 10 years ago. It's good practice/plinking ammo but if it's like the stuff i got, expect to get one or two misfires per 100.

$11.50 for 500 rds of Remington 40 gr.

or

You could pay, about $15+ (on sale) for 525/550 rds of Remington (or Federal) promo 36 gr. stuff.

Well, my rifle likes the 40 gr ammo.

And, at that price I don't expect it to be MATCH AMMO.

Remember the ammo shortages of a few years ago? Some of us paid about $18+ for 550 rds of 22LR Federal value pack ammo at Wally World. Not to mention the limits.

Laugh if you want. But, I'll have my stash.

Aloha, Mark

PS.....I've ordered 4 cases.

I have had good luck with some stuff that was very recently made. The CMP stuff is probably not recently made...........

Sounds like it might be decent revolver or lever action ammo.
