I really hope this commercially takes off as a spicy rimfire plink round.
Not sure if Winchester was talking shit though when they implied it should be cheaper than 22LR if they manage to achieve similar scale.
If you were to convert existing 22s, is it basically a rebarrel or a barrel lining?
Seems like a solution looking for a problem to me.
I really don’t see it lasting!
I think if they do manage to get ammo down to 22LR prices or similar, I would definitely be down to buy it. Gotta put my money where my mouth is to support innovation.
The suggested MSRP in the article doesn’t look a million miles off current 22 prices already.
I’ll stick to my .401 Herter Powermag I think!
If thats in the States though you can at least double it, if not triple it over here.
Commiefornia lead free requirement would be one reason i guess
California is a problem looking for a solution.
Ah - good point. It’s been a while since I bought ammo, forgot we get absolutely dicked on.
