I’d by a Kel-Tec PMR-30 today if 22 magnum rimfire wasn’t just as expensive as 9mm. And I’d by a CMR-30 carbine tomorrow. Superb lightweight high capacity platforms.
BUT....
Why is 22LR under 5 cents a pop, or even 3 cents in bulk, but 22 mag costs 17-20 cents a pop? It should cost about 10 cents at most.
Great caliber for many purposes, but absurdly expensive for what you get.

I believe it’s referred to by economists as Economy of Scale...
It is caused by the economy of scale.
