I'm not interested in the laser.

Isn't that CLP stuff kind of an oil/solvent in one?

ETA: Any specific recommendations for eye and ear protection?

Ear: depends on you. I have some high dollar powered ear muff style and I never use them anymore: they are uncomfortable, but that is me.

I use the 3M E.A.R. foam plugs with the cord. Cheap and comfortable.

Eye: Also depends on you. I either wear my sunglasses or some "safety glasses" that you can get from Lowes/Home Depot/Grainger.

I have wasted too much money on "cool" shooting gear only to find that the inexpensive solutions are often just as good, if not better.

CLP stands for "clean, lubricate, protect," so yea it's pretty much all-in-one. Ever since buying it, I don't think I'll ever use Rem oil again.

The reason people shoot the bulk stuff and not the Mini Mags is because if you look at the price, the Mini Mags are considerably more. Granted they are better quality, they aren't 15 bucks for 500 rounds.

The bulk stuff will work just fine in your SR22. If you have failures to feed or eject with the shitty ammo, you can pretty much just attribute it to the ammo.
