The only way youre gonna hurt someone with that thing is if you throw it at them.

Never denigrate a weapon or caliber you’re not personally willing to stand downrange from.
If I did I’d have a better than average chance of getting to cover before the owner got it up and running.

Pretty sure CCI and a Federal/American Eagle are separate entities.
Separate entities, yes.
Nonetheless, Same production line for .22 LR ammo. Same powder, same brass, (different headstamps), some different projectiles, some the same.

Occasional cross-over, as needed. There are still different facilities. CCI alone has a very diverse product line.
The new .22 rimfire plant in Lewiston, Idaho, is on line. Vista Outdoors owns the CCI and Federal rimfire brands. They have increased production for both brands by 20 percent...................
From the Lewiston Tribune, November 10th, 2017:
Parts of Vista's approach have worked well, such as investing in infrastructure and preserving market share, Metz said.
Vista recently debuted a new, 37,000-square-foot, $35 million rimfire ammunition plant near the Lewiston-Nez Perce County Regional Airport, which has resulted in what company officials describe as a “very satisfying” reduction in the time needed to complete an order.

It is going for twice that price.
As far as guns are concerned. Savage is far better and at a cheaper price.
That’s cheap. I just paid .30/pop
Haha. Good one.
Yep....Read yesterday one ammo manufacturer has an $85 million backorder......LOL!
