| Anyone know whereto purchase bulk .22 birdshot cheap |
|
google is your friend... a link from the first listing that popped up: www.dealerease.net/catalog/product.asp?pid=1011050&ret_id=373508 i would stick to the CCI. |

The .22 rimfire shotshells don't work right in guns that are rifled. You need a smoothbore to see how well they really work. I don't know who sells one now, Marlin I think was the last major US company that did, they used to sell a "garden gun" that was a smoothbore 22LR rifle intended just for shotshells. In the old days you'd just have a gunsmith ream out the rifling of a cheap revolver, but that ain't legal no more I thinks. ~ |
FUK NO that sum bitch is getting a 12ga not a .22lr birdshot round.. |
Daisy made a .22 LR smoothbore rifle, a .22 LR, and a rifle chambered in .22 Short about ten years ago. They were all pretty cheaply made with plastic stocks and potmetal barrels with a steel liner. edit: I forgot to add that they also developed a .50 BMG single shot for the military. |
on a side note, i got much better results removing the "bullet" from the CCI birdshot round and firing it out of a .22 benjamin sheridan air rifle. the CCI rounds aren't loaded very hot, and have almost no power. the pattern out of the sheridan was tighter and the shot did a much better job of pentrating. |
