Using mostly Hornady V Max at the moment
Tried a box of the Winchester Varmint HV and found them good too. Open to anything

Unless ur going to buy locally...any saving u will make will be swallowed up in delivery cost/ courier or your fuel costs going to collect...not big margin on rimfire ammo, 500 rounds is only 10 boxes , a carton of Hornady is 1000 rounds.
What are u currently paying for a box of 50 ?.

Try patrick Carley in wexford and he delivers

I also shoot hmr, and if I was close to you, I'd go half on bulk, to be stored at rfd adjacent to both of us, just for us.
This would be an especially good idea for people with oddball calibers too.

Nothing more annoying, than re-zeroing scopes for different brands...

That would be a brilliant idea!

Yes Murray's would be my go to.

Same prices as you'd get online, €21 / €22 for a box of 50

Did you ask them to give you a price on a bulk purchase?

I find the three lads in there very helpful and it's the one bricks and mortar shop that is hard to beat on price for anything to do with fishing or hunting.

For a man well into his eighties Mr. O Connell is as sharp as a tack, a great character.

Last ammo I bought from patrick carley for the hmr was federal at 16.50 a box.
