If you can find it, buy some of this.

In July the Field and Stream store in Lafayette had this much of it.



Wish I'd bought more than two boxes.

Nice pickup OP! Now to find time to shoot it!

I picked up 2 boxes of that CCI tactical 22 yesterday for about 18$ ea. Such a good price I'm going to probably go grab the other few left.

I hate to even say it because I'm not as loaded up as I want to be yet (3 box limit) but wallmart. Wallmart has the best price on 22s period. 3.50ish for CCI standard velocity where as best I see online is 4.50ish on sale. 17-18ish for the federal bulk 325 packs.

Edit correction I looked st my receipt. 3.47 for the CCI SV and 19.97 for the tactical. The federal was like a buck or so less than the tactical but I didn't get any.

Local shop. $399


Any recommendations on mods... Mainly optics (laser vs actual scope) and maybe a foregrip or bipod

M-Loc AFG from Magpul and Busnell TRS 25 red dot. I'm still researching a sling and suppressor... leaning towards SILENCERCO WARLOCK II... then I'm done with it.

Just read reviews for the TRS-25 on amazon..think that's what i'm gonna go with...did you have to buy the riser mount?

Also open to any other modification suggestions

They sell it with and without the riser. Get it with the riser as it is the correct height to co witness with the m-bus sights

FireField Flashlight/Foregrip

I think I may do this and since it has a red laser attachment may hold off on the RDS

I did get a riser, I think 3/4"? I'd get a few extra mags and ammo. Lots n lots of ammo.
