How much is it for a box of

a) .22lr

b) .22wmr

c) .22hornet

Would the .22wmr be the middleground between the three above calibers??

Prices range from about 9c a round to 30+c a round

Generally pay around €7 for a box of 50 Winchester subsonic 22LR.
Don't know about the others I'm afraid.

Typical energy values though are:
22LR subsonic 105 ft/lbs
22LR hi velocity 140 ft/lbs
22WMR 320 ft/lbs
22Hornet 720 ft/lbs

I think the last box of Winchester .22wmr was €12 or so, Thats what put me off .22 wmr, you have nearly twice the shooting for the same price in .22lr.

17HMR

And then, of course, there's 17HMR !
About €16 for a box of 50 - now widely available.
Muzzle energy of about 245 ft/lbs.
Very flat trajectory from 25-125 yds.

Remington 22LR Subsonic (Box of 50) €4.80
Hornady 22 Hornet 35 Grain V-Max (Box of 25) €27.50

.22wmr

€12 for a box of 40gr JHP @ 1900fps

€19 for a box of 34gr v-max @ 2100fps

Will take a rabbit shot anywhere up to 150yards or 200yards with the v-max

Will take a fox at 120yards or 150yards with the v-max

If you want to see the damage the v-max do to a rabbit ill take a few pics if im out tomorrow but ive shot them in the shoulder and theres a 2" hole on the other side and if you shoot them in the head dont expect to be picking up much

also hit a fox wrong with them was a long shot and rushed it a bit would have hit him a third of the way down the back and not to far down but still dropped in a heap
